What do you do when you get the words too late? That particular deadlines’ come and gone, but its only now that the words rush in a heady flurry, so you extricate them from their involved kaleidoscopic dance and string them into six lines or some such, ah this works, for me, it does, you tell yourself happily and pat yourself on the back.
For Monday’s return ticket, Air India in all its wisdom called, and offered to take me to Ahmedabad (2 hr drive, but in the opposite direction) in order to bring me to Mumbai (1 hr flt). Amazing.

Hi Aust,
I didnt understand the Air India wisdom :(
Sathya
I have flown thousands of miles around the country, on multiple flights, just to wind up about 500 miles from where I began. It did seem silly, but it would have been an even longer walk:)
Yes, I do best under tight deadlines. You have to scrape off the lint and polish the good text.
Take Care,
