Hyderabad - June 2009 Meets

absynthguzzler · 7th June 2009, 18:44

Cheers to everyone that turned up , BUT

*)I was thinking this weekend nothing was happening cause his thread was so inactive !
*)I thought this meet was meant to be a movie meet?!?
*)Thank god that mum had done some shopping earlier for me to say "aye" even at 8pm for you lot to come over
*)Whoever landed up with the fruit juices and machli , good else you guys would been fed with only 1 peice of chicken , lol.

Lastly, I'm not complaining bout such impromptu meets if i get to see surprises like hillram's Toyota :-).

It all starts off with Prabhu wanting to drop my car off and look who all jump the bandwagon lol. Hmmm , coming to think of it , this was a Convoy for Prabhu like the CM's- unexpected ,unanswered and unforgiven visitors. You guys should give some tips to someone who's had problems with the CM of late.

Hot Damn!!!! Looks like a super meet that you guys had. And I was stuck in a stuffy re-union:(.

nagvasireddy · 8th June 2009, 10:48

Good to know that you guys had good time on Saturday. I am feeling hungry after looking at those photos. Avi sure has a knack of making the food items look yummy.

Dudes, pls ping me when you plan an impromptu meet in Secunderabad or Begumpet.

Unfortunately, No. She is not that fortunate to work for IT companies like we do and the pressure in her bank is enormous.

Guys, a bit of a change from my end. If all goes well, I may be without a ride on Saturday (may finalise a deal for the Safari). if that happens, i wll hitch a ride with Rajesh and will come alone.

Ardy · 8th June 2009, 14:29

I will have to let go this drive meet. Got an exam on Saturday morning.

And I am travelling starting June 19th on a 10 day drive to my native in UP.

nagvasireddy · 8th June 2009, 15:01

Would have loved to join the Bidar drive. It was long since I met you guys (I was on a sales tour in US for most of May, and I did not want to meet you guys till I am satisfied that I don't have swine flu

). But, I have to drive down to Tenali on June 13 to attend a cousin's wedding.

Yes bhrata, what happened was that the truck let me down for the first time yesterday in pouring rain with the family inside. Minor niggles i was getting used to, but ECU malfunction due to a spot of rain is something that I cannot and will not ignore

. We were coming back from the movie (BTW< great movie, thanks for the tickets)

So, i have asked for the foreclosure satement from my company lease provider and hopefully by this weekend or the next, I should be able to sell it. Then the search starts for a replacement, and that is when I will bug each one of you for suggesstions.
