I just got back from watching The Dark Knight. It was a late show which started at 11:30pm and since the movie was a long one, it ended at quarter past 2 am. The movie itself was fairly good and I recommend all batman fans to definitely check it out.
Let’s talk a bit about the overall experience (the movie itself was just one part of it). I got to the mall a little after 11:00pm. Here’s a very important tip: for this late movie get to the mall before 11:00, and here’s why.

Do you live in Gurgaon and own a Honda car? Well, if yes then you know that it is a pain to get your car serviced as there is only one authorized service provider from Honda in Gurgaon: Ring Road Honda. Or this was the case till 2-3 months ago. I purchased my Civic from Ring Road Honda more than a year ago, and since then it has always been a pain to get servicing done because they are always so busy. You have to take appointments much in advance and then too, you are not assured of a timely service because they are so overbooked.
Finally, that has changed.

On the topic of healthcare, I thought I would compile a list of all the pharmacies/chemist shops that I know of in Gurgaon. Although, there are resources on the Internet that list these, they have either inaccurate information or are woefully incomplete.
To start of, I have a list of all 24 hour pharmacies below. If you know of any that are not in this list (or any in the list that are not 24 hours), then please leave a comment and I will update the list.
I think it will be an interesting project to map out all the pharmacies, and mark on the map which ones are 24 hours, which offer delivery services, maybe review them, etc. I will also add contact information and addresses for these pharmacies. Once again, if you already have this information, please either drop me a mail or leave this information in comments, and I will update the post.

I recently had to get my wife admitted to the Max Hospital in Gurgaon. Below is a review based on my experience of this facility. Overall, I am satisfied with the services, but there can be improvements. First a little bit about the facility itself. Max is a relatively large hospital with a large number of specialities and services. They have over 100 beds, 2 Operation Theatres and a 12 bed ICU (information courtesy Max Website); they also have a Emergency Response team.
By the looks of it, the hospital seems very modern and professionally managed. The staff at all desks are friendly and eager to help. It contains a 24 hour cafeteria and a 24 hour pharmacy (two things that I believe are a must for any decent hospital). It is located near Park Plaza hotel in Sushant Lok 1. Now I will talk about our experience.
