   when i looked at your parents photo (previous one) i thought how much your dad somehow reminded me of pictures of my own dad in the 1950′s. i was tempted to ask if there was an indian connection – but now i know! its very interesting to see this photograph.

   My dad took me to see Madras and Tambaram in 1985.
   I hear that they have changed a lot since then.

   My mother’s family had a musical shop in Madras in the early 1900s … I’d love to find out more but it’s practically impossible to do research on such things now.

   I know. I would like to visit India one day.
   I have such lovely memories of Podanur, Bangalore and Madras.
   Being so far away , it is very difficult to get photos. of churches/cemeteries where our family members were buried and our ancestors as well.

   I have visited that site Celeste.
   I also belong to a couple of other groups which are into researching Family Trees. They are India L etc etc
   Have you been to Moore Market (shopping mall) in Madras.
   I write articles/poems just little bits and pieces

   I’ve only been once to Madras … it was in 1985.
   I think that I might have been there, but I don’t remember.
   What is Moore Market like?

    Moore Market was a big red building where one can get anything… especially second hand books . It was demolished after a fire destroyed part of the building.around the mid – eighties
    As a child we went to Madras every year to do our Christmas shopping . I have written an article about Moore Market.

    this is so cool! i love that it’s like a castle — and a creative way to have several levels of cakes. i reposted the photo (w photo cred + link) on our blog: blog.theweddinglens.com/2009/06/11/cool-looking-cakes/

    nlcf28, thanks for using my photo. it’s quite over the top isn’t it?!

    it’s quite a while ago, but from memory, only the 3 main cakes were real. the rest were just foam blocks with icing.

    looks impressive though!
