Venky: Robi, how bad is the trail up man, shall we try it? Robi: Its quite tough, its not going to be easy Jayesh: No way those tyres are going to make it. (prior to the climb he kept complaining that the Jeep did not go into 4 low - which at that time was mysteriously true because it did not crawl back in 4 low/reverse gear. It almost free-fell). Venky to Khan: Machan, can we join you guys? Khan: Shoore shoore, lots of space behind, come. Venky to Bob: Bob, shall we leave the jeep here and get into Khan's gypsy (Khan/jaggu had suddenly got the itch in their bums and began following us). Bob: Are you insane? Where are we gonna sit? Khan's gypsy has no roof at the back. We'll have to stand in the rain like idiots all the way to the dam. No way am I going on for this for the whole night. Naga (shivering): Yeah machan, it doesnt make sense. Venky to Robi: Brother, when do you think we'll get back. Robi: I dont think we'll make it back tonight. If we do, it will be early in the morning. If we dont, come back and look for us. Venky/Bob/Naga's faces:  After mentioning this to Khan/Jaggu, and their faces:  Next thing you know, we were asleep back at the unfinished jungle cabin. We did not even engage 4WD back. Just free-wheeled in top gear to get away from this madman called Robinson. Last edited by Eddy : 18th June 2010 at 20:33. Reason: Use of foul language, even indirectly, is not allowed. | |

| The photos and the narration are just Good one guys! Jaggu, please post the photos in subsequent posts rather than the 2& 3rd page posts of yours. Missing out on the flow when you do that! Quote:
 Nice one RL! Someone should have taken a photo at that time! | |

| i remember that conversation.Its was a good thing that we did the trail to the dam in the morning. Considering the rain and how slippery the gradients were and the number of fallen trees that we had to clear, we would have ended up staying on the trail all night long. Good thing i woke at the right time, i had just opened my eyes and i saw spidey and the invader heading up, and then khan immediately asked me to jump into the invader.

That said, your gypsy is boring to watch. You really need to get a jeep and get into the fun the rest of us are having | |
