HELP THE CITY OF CHENNAI SAVE FROM FLEECING AUTO DRIVERS.
Trying to help self and visitors reaching Chennai with Transport facility.To my horror i found travelling a big challenge in this city.18 years of not using the public transport,in the comfort of own car or a hike ride thru friends as i was a VISITOR/GUEST on annual vacation,got the reality to my senses.Many of the Bus route numbers i had used regularly in my college days[in '80's] has all changed.CHANGE IS NECESSARY FOR PROGRESS.Numbers in the route reads like off beat coded mobile numbers.I had to take my Laptop for servicing in Anna Nagar.Quiet far, down meter by a rickshaw should have registered 100rs.max.I PAID 250 for a round trip as these AUTOs are masters of the big swipe gang helping us to empty pocket soon.IT WAS A TOTAL OF 500rs -2 trips to get my laptop back.NO ONE ARGUES HERE,GOVERNMENT IS SLEEPING ON THE ISSUE AND I WANT TO BE BACK IN MUMBAI SOON.
The city is great but living in a lazy mode.There is no public forum strong enough to raise the decimal levels nor is the Court rulings,warnings have any bearing in the Transport ministry.It looks like a underdeveloped city and our deputy CM wants Chennai look like SINGAPORE!I have not travelled abroad,but does the system work like this?LET CHENNAI BE CHENNAI with basic infrastructure functioning smoothly.
Rains have battered the city in past 2 days.Roads have become a tarmac of bumpy bouncy rides.Water logging is like a off shoot of Bay Of Bengal,Most houses are floating with stagnant water.Ohhhhhhh....it must have been a ISLAND CITY and not Singapore in the minds of Politicians.
IF YOU HAVE THE TIME AND LIKE TO GO AROUND THE CITY THEN THIS LINK MIGHT HELP IN FINDING THE ROUTES.WE THE CHENNAITES ARE PROUD TO PRESENT BUS ROUTES TO SUITE ALL POCKETS-FROM BASIC FARES ,DELUX BUSES,and A/C BUSES WITH A HIGH END PRICE{this is worth it!}

Majestic Crochet Flower Motif - Bullion Stitch
This method of Bullion Crochet has the loop pulled thru evenly.I am finding it difficult to hold...1]the loops open up 2]the type of Needle/Hook is Awesome.Wonder where i can buy the same type here in India.Nevertheless the first video posted on the subject has wetted my crave to try and come close to finish.Happy with the outcome and the Needles available here.Thanks Teresa for the wondeful video demo.

Hello and Good Morning!Its PERFECT.After a struggle of 15 mnts in holding the needle and the loop thread i conquered the Bullion Stitch Crochet.It was a bit clumsy but then got better as Confidence prevailed.My work outs emerge better after mid-night as theres peace around.Special menion to the Video where the Author is so clear in explanation that it can never fail.A Must Try.....Trying to upload my not so perfect Trial.
