"Do you know Vijay Nair?"

I was out to lunch yesterday with the whole of the English Department of my university. Sitting next to a young man who joined the dept in September -- he is nice but we had never chatted socially before. I was telling him about India, and about Vasind, and what it was all about. Then he said, "Do you know Vijay Nair?". How much of a coincidence was that? Vijay may be guessing now -- yes, it was Steve Van Hagen, who was in Canterbury at the same time, I think. He said he had acted in one of Vijay's plays there. We then spent a happy few minutes telling each other how nice Vijay was, and he sent much love and good wishes.
