Dec'2008: Hyderabad Drink Meet

Hyd Folks, it's already over a week since we completed our drive meet and even if most of you think i am crazy and have nothing better to do, i thought of bouncing this idea out with you all.

How about a drink meet early next month? That ways we can round off 2008 on a good note and come back together for a nice drive meet during mid-january 2009

As i am sure we wouldn't want to waste another weekend, proposing some dates during working week.

How about ( Dec 5th/ Dec 7th) OR ( Dec 12/Dec 14th) for a drink meet like we had previously? Details can be worked out based on you'll feedback!

So why not sound off your ideas as well?

Cheers
Avi

Ram, Xtreme's pricing befits its name

Let's please look at other options.

i am ok with that!

2 suggestions:

(1) since this is a car forum, how about a "car-o-bar" meet - we can drive somewhere, drink (responsibly) and drive back

(2) keep it in the day time to avoid breath checking by cops

I'm in for Dec 5th. Last time i checked Katriya De Royal still had the offer open (Unlimited Beer + Biryani for INR 450)! Another option they had was 50% off on a selection of liqour (except beer) @ Whisky Joe's (Bar of KDR).

Anand, that's my sunday routine. But, lets not think of carobar as we can do it informally sometime, if you wish

Let's stick to a decent place with lots of booze and good food.

KDR food last time around sucked big time. How about FK? That was much better in all respect.

Rajesh bhai, aap tho ek aur drive meet suggest kar rahe ho

Let's catch up for a quick drink,good food and some laughter over a working day. Only reason to suggest a weekday is that we can spend the weekend with family. Else, these meets would be cut short forever

Buddy, we dont want to waste another weekend ( especially on meet ) so soon again. Atleast, i would not like to on a sunday.

I am sure you can join during the weekday albeit a bit late ( say 9'sh)

Guys, lot of confusion on the dates.

Can we freeze on either Dec 3rd or Dec 6th in the evening? Please select one of these dates ASAP

Dec 3rd and/or 6th evening sounds fine ,should we start with the confirmations then?

p.s:- Dec 3 ,jethro tull and anushka shankar are performing in hyd ,i m sure many would be planning to go there

so should we finalise it as 6th evening?

I *might* be able to make it on 3rd if it's within the city. Weekends won't be feasible for me.
