I got myself a guest membership at the gym at the Trivandrum club yesterday. There was a brief tour yesterday and although the place felt claustrophobic and was half the size of my St Leonards sweat shop (Trivandrum club's swimming pool, tennis and cricket courts included), I kept an open mind.
I went in at 7 am today, on Boxing day and was surprised to see a lot of men walking uphill on one of the centre's 4 treadmills. I ran at full speed for a couple of minutes when the minder came in to inform me, "Sir, no running on the threadmill, please walk." Apparently, the threadmill's warranty only covered damages caused by "soft" usage. Ok, I am going to try another place tomorrow.

Thiruvananananananana....puram
I don't know what to make of Trivandrum's official name. If it's Thiruvananathapuram, why do all the official signs spell T-r-i-v-a-n-d-r-u-m? Anyone? Our arrival here went without drama. The customs was smooth and the bags arrived on time.
