L has spent at least 30 years of her life in Bangalore and now she's living in Hyderabad for a little more than a year and she's finding all sorts of problems with Bangalore, out of nowhere. Her latest are the kirana shops, which she believes have vanished from Bangalore but are thriving in her new home. I do miss seeing More Supermarket board in Hyderabad but there are also some five kirana shops in the 200 meters between my house and the busstop. I had to count them and some more shops nearby and then she unhappily agreed that her fears may be unfounded. I am a recent convert to Bangalore after having been in love with Hyderabad for long and it's unbelievable that she gives me unfinished sentences like, "Bangalore has become....somehow....you know..."! What!!
