Weekly Notes 26/2026

It was a short work week. I took Thursday off because we had some registration related work in Denkanikottai. The morning drive was easy and fun, but then, like any government work, it didn’t get done on time. So we entered the city during the peak evening traffic, with some rain. It was...
