Hmmm, well let me be frank - I liked Storm & did agree with quite a few of the others that it would be a good idea to have the next meet there. They gave damn good service the last time around (considering that we descended on them without any prior notice) & the price was VFM given the space & the ambience.

Now, if this meet is going to go into a Saturday & we're talking about a "Pay as you go" - well guys, as Shashank mentioned, there are a few hundred places we can go to & I have quite a few of that hundred much closer to my house. With extended Happy Hours that I can partake of without having to drive 25 kms to South Delhi (that's 45 minutes of driving each way, translates to time for another 2 + 2 pegs) on a Saturday.

......I hope that makes sense to all my mates, do let me know in case I need to elaborate further.

If we are to have a meet with a package deal then it should be at STORM. As far as my understanding goes, the deal we are getting for 750 is not bad. its actually VFM, considering the venue. and as Suman pointed out that if we were to have a package deal there are 100's of places where we can go anytime anywhere!

So guys, please buck up and start pouring your thoughts in, so that we can finalize this place.

Suman: I would request you or one of the senior members to bulk PM all the NCR members once again. (would have done it had I the allowed limit)

8-9th weekend is definitely out since in all probablity I'll be far away from Delhi.
Ditto for 15th, I guess its best to move it to the weekend after independence day

Tanveer: A quick question for you, How come whenever we have a 'meat' you are always out? Are you allergic to the 'meat'?

phamilyman · 30th July 2008, 19:03

He sure isnt a garib veg teetotaller like me!

Don't worry Tanveer, we serve Non-Veg as well. Since some of us are Carnivores here

You'll have company

phamilyman · 31st July 2008, 12:18

Some? January was most!!

bakar aside, the final dates?

krazydriver84 · 4th August 2008, 09:59

Ok guys, on a serious note. What is the conclusion we are at?

Is this meet happening or not because I see no enthusiasm for this meet.

ankitahuja · 4th August 2008, 16:16

Sorry guys, I'm out of town on the 8th, if the meet is happening on the 9th, I can most probably make it then.

Apologies again!

Shashank.A · 6th August 2008, 09:01

It seems that package deal is not working this time.

I guess lets call for pay as you go meetup...so who all are in.

krazydriver84 · 6th August 2008, 11:20

My 1st doubt is how many wil be there for the meet??
I don't see it happening this weekend definitely

whats there to doubt about ? you only tell us your availability.

ashthedivx · 6th August 2008, 11:56

I am available anyhow !! However, "Pay as you go" seems to be a better option, we can have a small meet too.

raj_aryan4411 · 6th August 2008, 12:00
