Yo rgg, you all are welcome to my small farm ( emergency stocking place for rare fish rather ). Its really small with just about 5 cement rings and a few cement tanks. And i got only 1 FW tank at home. Farm too is near my house in Ambattur, near VSNL.
So pls dont be disappointed if you have imagined a mighty setup. My farm is as brachy as me. : ) |

Hi Raghu,
Not aware of Shankar's farms location. If it's close to his house, then, we will need 4 wheel drive trucks to reach his farm.
|
Now i realise that your 4x4 must have had a tough time to carry the BIG guys. And Venket added to its pain. 
@rgg, the farm's no more scary. Got it trimmed today morning, just for the VIP visits on 6 /23. |

Hello Guys:
These are the rates for accomodation that we got recently. We will update as and when we get the rates.
Checkers (Aquatika Venue):
Single Occupancy Rs.3600/-
Double Occupancy Rs.4200/- (Agreeable to accomodate an extra person with no extra cost) Means, 3 people can share the same room splitting the rate among themselves.
Hotel Vijay Park: Rs.2000/- Double occupancy
Regards
Venket |

Venket, i feel it would be better to post a couple of more economic accommodations to facilitate who are still students.
I would have really loved to accommodate a couple of people at my place. But really space is a constraint.  |

Agree with Santa.
I will be there from 22nd to 26th, means 5+ days. Just imagine if I will stay @ your mentioned venue for five days how much I have to pay. Its more than 10,000/-
 Â
Please try to find out some more economic accommodations. Last time I was there in Hotel Darshini @ Egmore Station for Rs. 500/- per day in a AC Room with double occupancy.
The hotel is not a star grade, but people can accommodate over there. The hotel was neat and clean, 24 hrs water supply & attached bathroom with lift service. |

Here is an update.
Guys the smaller lodges are not willing to give a tentative block on rooms hence I am not in a position to get their tariff.
Here is a tariff from New Woodlands Hotel:
Super Delux Room. 1840/-,
A/C Room(May be single occupancy) Rs.1350/-,
Non A/C Rs.800/-.
