Gah! I've just come back from the theatre and I'm too bamboozled by what I've just sat through to keep sitting and give you a blow by blow account of our TWU outing to Mysore. Suffice to say that it was lovely: great to take a break from Bangalore, see the countryside and find a town that's a bit calmer and easy going.

Plenty of pics are up on flickr but I wanted to post this one here - my new friends from Mysore:


I was talking to these kids for about 10 minutes - mostly about cricket of course. I can exclusively reveal that young kids in Mysore today want to be Mahendra Dhoni. All my prejudices were proved wrong as well - I sort of expected them some of them to start hassling me for money, or pens or something but they never did. We just talked cricket and I signed them all up as ThoughtWorkers because they said they were smart. They were too. First question they asked when I told them I worked with computers was "Hardware or Software?". Blimey.
