It spurs me on to doing something with all the stuff I've been collecting over the years, the photographs and menus and magazines and instruction booklets.somehow I have to find the time to scan them and put them up. I've never been interested in hoarding. Thanks for the feedback, Valerie.

I was misty eyed when I wrote it. Made me decide that I would scan the artefacts that can be scanned, and have them available to all via this blog. Photographs and memories, as Jim Croce would have said. Glad you enjoyed the post. I was misty eyed when I wrote it.

Made me misty-eyed just reading it and remembering old times. I hear a lot about how things have changed in Calcutta. Even the name is not the same anymore :( But for me it is still old cal with all those wonderful memories that you talk about. Something's just never change. And I am so glad.

I visited your blog to pick up a link to one of your earlier posts (about the New Shoes photo) and saw this. Many thanks for this Calcutta reflection. A little while ago I wrote to a friend about my college days and shares my memories of your father. Best, chutki Hi JP.
