One gentleman called and asked, "can you chase it down"! With a childish weep, i said "i know, i can't but my everything is inside bus!
He smiled and said," come on, we'll catch it and took his vehicle (Mini load van with bunch of passengers inside),...

Bus no on 8-oct-18 travelled from pondy to chennai. Conductor told that last stopping will be guindy and will not go to cmbt. It's really a pain to catch auto or another local bus to reach cmbt.
