Many of you also want to buy it online<BR/>My publishers tell me that a new print run is being taken for'34 Bubblegums and Candies' since the first lot has been sold out.<BR/>Meanwhile I found this site which says it will deliver to US, UK ,Germany and all parts of India as well.<BR/>Here is the link:<BR/>http://www.bookscaterer.com/index.php?productID=3311<BR/>Incidentally, Crossword too delivers book to all places in India, once you place an order. You can order it by writing to them at weborders@shoppersstop.co.in<BR/>or by logging on to their website: http://crosswordbookstores.com<BR/><BR/>Hope this helps!""Pratshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10849938760602815322noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3556500996991493053.post-37845343106771441902008-10-14T19:02:00.000+05:302008-10-14T19:02:00.000+05:30@suma...I've tried lightening it...but thats invol...@suma...I've tried lightening it...but thats involving changing a whole lot of other stuff :( and me's very bored already....but will try again...now how is it?Pratshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10849938760602815322noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3556500996991493053.post-2750695788902550712008-10-14T15:29:00.000+05:302008-10-14T15:29:00.000+05:30Hey Prats!Template change!!! what happened?

(lol). <BR/><BR/>Your post is excellently written. Yes, am extremely proud of what Preeti has done and achieved and without any doubt it is a huge achievement not because it has been printed but because of the fact that she did not give up, put in that huge effort and got it through successfully. But I must confess that what she has done is her own effort like staying up late nights for over 6 months and I have only contributed only in a miniscule way (cooking a few dal roti types). Not saying you should take back the compliment. Must also mention one of the side effects of Preeti writing and blogging is that I too have become interested in net surfing and visiting a few blogs and realise that a number of people write very well like you have done. It was great meeting up with you at the launch and thanks for coming.<BR/>Sorry for the long comment.<BR/>Cheers SatishSatish Shenoyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03263056523282998375noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3556500996991493053.post-82764941625903620912008-10-13T22:43:00.000+05:302008-10-13T22:43:00.000+05:30I was there at the launch and I really enjoyed.
