		<description>i bumped into your blog cause i was googling swimming classes in india when i visit in summer....hmmm... if its not women in madisars then its prepy old white women sipping tea...no offense but it seems to me that you have a tolerance level eqivalent to a chipmunk ready to pounce on a nut... i think it needs some maturity to embrace and love different cultures... i love the heat and the maamis...its home... its funny how some people get cynical just cause they took a flight...hehe//// i think the biggest lesson people need to learn is adaptability... !! CHEERS!</description>

		<description>hey desi,

can you tell which swimming pool you were in? are there any good ones not far from Parrys-Egmore?

thanks.

&lt;em&gt;
Er, you&#039;d have better luck trying Just Dial or some other uptodate resource. I went to one on the ECR and am clueless about what happens elsewhere in the city.
&lt;/em&gt;</description>

anu

&lt;em&gt;
The one I went to - well, the instructor did a bunk after day 5 and that was that! And this was on the ECR, near Thiruvanmiyur. My suggestion is JustDial.com, Anu.
ps: Why would you pity me? I had a whale of a time, gossiping away!
&lt;/em&gt;</description>

		<description>Well, terri, i thought the same re the &#039;away days&#039; but the management thinks otherwise. Funnily enough, it was a she!

Thank you for dropping in!</description>

		<description>Hello, desigirl,
I zipped over from Amrita&#039;s and am starting to go through your archives. Before I lose my train of thought, I have to comment on the management&#039;s menstruation policy.
I thought one couldn&#039;t bleed in the pool, with water naturally clogging the orifices and so on.
So now your entire class and the male instructor knows the next time you don&#039;t show up for the whole week because you&#039;re &quot;not at home&quot;?
That&#039;ll give the maamis and aunties something more to talk about.</description>

		<description>Hmm, I think there is a lot of awareness regarding people&#039;s ballooning weight problems. The increasing number of gyms that come complete with diet advisors and the front page articles about junk food etc. There are lot more Yoga centres now in the city than there were a scant year and half ago. So, even though the number of fast food outlets is on the rise, I somehow feel that diet and exercise has a healthy hold on the people too.</description>

		<description>Hilarious.  I didn&#039;t think it was going to be easy learning swimming in India, especially for a girl.  I am glad that those overweight women are doing something about it.  I know too many people in India who refuse to take care of their bodies.

Is it my feeling or do you feel it too, that there is a growing weight problem in India and nobody is taking note of it?</description>
