Some problem with the server it seems and as usual imageshack is acting smart.

The transportations

Tight looking Fiat...

...With that common sight

The group without me

Wimwian with his bright baby

Mr & Mrs Tathagata

planet_rocker and his GF (please provide the name, planet_rocker)

Niel with his Scorpio

Razor with his angry look (for having constant issue with Lancer)

Shuvc & Black Pearl as Baleno brothers

I'm biting my nails as I missed all of this

...awesome pics Rudra da...I wanted to meet all of you folks and especially you Rudra da...anyways expecting a write up on the meet from one of the participants...

By the way,Planet's Padmini(1100D) looks like its in immaculate condition...very neat
Razor's CRV is a show stealer...awesome ride

hey nice pics blackpearl...

Zappo · 22nd July 2007, 23:15

Wow... looks like one cool meet. Rudra da being there must have added some further degrees of fun to the whole thing.

so when did it all get over? Any spiritual aspects to the whole thing guys? specifically rudro da being there it should have been a single malts day, all the way. and how come rudro da is not there in any fotos? someone's gotta have taken one yaar.

good going guys. the best part about kolkata meet is that its always a family affair... gfs, wives... thats really cool. this is one thing we got to imbibe here as well. but then does not seem to easily acceptable here. way to go people.

now someone present a write-up or at least a diary for the day... who picked whom up and where... where everyone met. the route you drove, interesting anecdotes... everything. dudher shaadh naahoye gholei metaai.

Great Pics Rudra Da, you really are a magician

Lovely meet guys - really enjoyed the impromptu 'drags' (shuvc getting new tyres?), driving the CRV and of course, the food. Also made the mistake of handing over the keys of my car to Shuvd LOL... just kidding, I ripped my car on the way back too!

Here're some pics that I took

Great pics Rudra da, wim & black pearl! Btw, Rudra da... thought u had taken one where i looked more cheerful.. where'd that go?

It was a terrific meet. Met lots of new TBhpians - it's great to see the strength of the Kol chapter increasing steadily.
A detailed report is called for! Now who wants to do the honours?

I'll be pitching in with my 2 cents soon. Too tired now to type.
Was good fun guys... looking forward to the next one.

And I'm trying desperately to finish HP7

Will write a report tomorrow. Where's Planet? He's usually out with a report by now...

Next time its gonna be the Lancer! BTW the blackpearl now lacks those purposeful eyes!

Oh on second thoughts, do I see jealousy in ETC's eyes!! Planet is making it clear who his first love really is!
