Hells Bells · 2nd March 2007, 18:13

Hey guys,

lets meet up for lunch types. should be great!! Not sure of the place. Am staying in New Town. Lemme know where and when (and how, coz am not sure of the directions!)

1100D · 2nd March 2007, 22:07

Sunday, if everything goes per plan, Rampiari's gonna receive the final 2 coats of paint and I am going to spend the time at the garage in that case but then I guess it can also happen in the morning, so not quite sure I will be able to join.

Well how about a Baleno vs Ikon side by side drag (both being on Eagle F1's). And there's no magic on the Ikon ECU this time.

shuvd · 3rd March 2007, 20:51

Dang! Don't think I can make it this time around.

Got some important thingy to take care of

You guys have fun.

WOW what a lovely Team-bhp meet we have had today. We had many participants @Planet, myself and "etc" Watching a 1969 1100d getting the final coats of 2k paint. etc did not appreciate the 2k paint watching ceremony. But we had a gala time and I had a "Hawaiaan cruise"

@1100D - yeah so much for the "many participants". that was one of the "super mini meets" in kolkata which i have been attending. first it was with @shuvd, then two were with @1100D. by the way "etc" is a person and she happens to be my GF. she loves cars but then she, at times, thinks that "we" overdo things a bit. Girls...hmmm! what can i say about them. they never understand "us".

as for the meet, though the "newbies" like Hells Bells, BlackPearl, babhishek (may be) were interested for the meet...it just didnt happen. the co-ordinator (uhm...me) tried but then it just didnt happen. there were problems with the following guys:
@shuvd - work
@shuvc - work (household)
@razor - Football match
@indrajitr - out of town
@1100D - went to the garage (his car getting 2K paint job - 1/cosC)
and i was with "etc" ready for the meet. but the i thought it would be better if all of us met "together" ... also this time i didnt plan it properly.

ok...lets see if we can manage next week. i am game for it.
how about Sunday after 12PM. what say guys?

BlackPearl · 6th March 2007, 01:53

Yeah you are right,Thanks for reminding, we almost forgot it somewhere. Infact there are hidden dangers for even sitting on the porcelain pot how many of us overlook that, right man, we should always think safety.

BTW, how old are you?

Went there to have chicken, but then I am thinking it was so unsafe, I could have had chicken bone stuck to my throat and I would not have been able to drive the Ikon back!!

Anyway jokes apart, you should have called me then. Cos nowadays I am mostly doing the travel formalities and when I am not doing that I am ragging auto sales men shuvc being my partner in crime, maybe u can join the celebrations too.
