Kas...@Doc: Good to hear from you after a long time. Kashi's filth is as ancient as its age. I have read a book written in 1923, in which the author laments about it and hopes that modernity will change Kashi - NO way!<br /><br />@Ousu; Banking is my bread. I too wish I were in some other profession, but what to do? I am just a dilettente, a jack of many non-income generating activities! :-) <br /><br />@Gymnast: Like I wrote, this is the most I could squeeze out. Yes I know the bookshops near the PUblic library; first place i go to whenever I am in Calicut! <br /><br />@Insignia: If only the glass were cleaner! <br /><br />And B, I am not just only a Banker,I am many things, and also, I am ME!<br /><br />@Melange': Fish Biriyani at Sagara, Parattas and Chicken Fry at Paragon - I will add 'Saina' too! <br /><br />@Anil: Guess any place, like any people has its good and bad sides! I am trying hard to discover the good in Alleppey! :-/Balachandran Vhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10174364716507089780noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-541988681105767002.post-36444385228019703742012-02-13T11:58:19.633+05:302012-02-13T11:58:19.633+05:30Calicut and Kottayam, certainly has the better mat...Calicut and Kottayam, certainly has the better matters than the rest of the towns and cities in Kerala.<br /><br />A good roving camera work with a decent commentary.<br />Love to be in Calicut, it is many years now.! <br />EMS and AKG were certainly the men who made a difference to the feudal society there was in the state. And they can be disliked for their philosophy, but not hated like the many other con commies.<br /><br />And the end, I think it is a sin to burden all our sins on one poor soul!anilkurup59https://www.blogger.com/profile/07961961217418715354noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-541988681105767002.post-43672244824623367982012-02-13T11:22:16.818+05:302012-02-13T11:22:16.818+05:30Well,that was so nice of you to record Calicut her...Well,that was so nice of you to record Calicut here..Brought back memories.The beehive click indeed is a valuable addition to your gallery..Would have regretted if you didn't carry the camera with you.<br />The market scene,I completely agree with you..Looks nostalgic in a way.<br /><br />I wonder why you missed some fine homely eateries out there.Not about those professional biriyani people.Small eateries like 'Saina's" where you can have athisayapathiri,meen pathiri and all..Calicut journey I believe is not complete without food.Mélangehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16807745317206193365noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-541988681105767002.post-37789555848920429412012-02-13T10:07:52.973+05:302012-02-13T10:07:52.973+05:30Balan,

And thank you for affirming my stand about beaches in alapuzzha and calicut.<br /><br />local history and places, mr B, you should have been a thousand other things, but a Banker.

I am surprised,still you found time for this wonderful post.<br /><br />When I walk along the beaches here, I really pity the situations of our own beaches. Our rivers and beaches remain the dirtiest of places.The only dirtier place I had seen in pictures is Kashi,our holy place.dr.antonyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16191095888228061156noreply@blogger.com
