My father first took me and my brother there 40 years ago and it holds a lot of precious memories for us. A real shame and I wonder what will appear in its place.
I am sorry to hear that the India Club, London, is to close permanently in September. As the son of one of its founders, I lament the passing of an institution that served so many Indians (and not only Indians) for nearly three-quarters of a century. For many students, journalists and travellers, it was a home away from home, offering simple and good quality Indian food at affordable prices as well as a convivial atmosphere to meet and maintain friendships.
As the picture shows, I was there this summer with my sister (we are standing in front of photos of my father attending club events in the early 1950s) and am sad to realise that that was my last visit, since I will not be returning to London this year. Om Shanti!

May your soul rest in eternal peace. You said โโWhen you are deciding on next steps, next jobs, next careers, further education, you should rather find purpose than a job or a career. Purpose crosses disciplines. Purpose is an essential element of you.โ So true.
From what weโre told, Chadwick Boseman was diagnosed w/ Stage 3 colon cancer in 2016, battled it through the making of multiple, jarringly impactful films and never let on. โThe struggles along the way are only meant to shape you for your purpose.โ

Saving the most lives by destroying the least livelihoods, some countries practising โSmart containmentโ by targeting restrictions. Example: age 65+ 29000 deaths and 375 for age under 45. London 24 new cases/day; NE and Yorkshire 4000/day.
By taking early, decisive and swift action, with politicians leading from the front, Slovakia, a poor country achieved the lowest per capita death rate in the #pandemic. So now shops reopening, people dining out on terraces. Our leaders could learn something about #leadership
โThe UK is in a unique position to deliver a large trial because we have a unified #NHS so very difficult to carry them out in other parts of the world. Thank you NHS. Oxford recruits 2,700 virus patients for fast-growing drugs trial https://t.co/76UhsrfDvF via @financialtimes
Medics in emergency wards, policemen guarding roads, samaritans distributing food, citizens sheltering dogs, and so many others - as #IndiaFightsCoronavirus, there are tales of heroism everywhere.

Wow. I knew @peterfrankopan was a renaissance man, best-selling Historian etc, albeit a most peculiar batsman. But this is on another level.
Written in December without any knowledge of #COVID19, this must be one of the most prescient articles ever published by a UK magazine
if you have the 3 โCโs: courage, conviction and cash, then you are king #stockmarkets teach us same lesson and nothing really ever changes or ever will.
