they grow HURDA (i do not know the english name of it)

Quote:

Hurda is raw green jawar still in the corn in its initial stage. There is particular time in the life of jawar plant when we can get the best hurda.

OT:
Hey guys, I think I seem to have understood Hurda. If I'm not wrong, its something refered to as "ponk" in Gujarat. Is it? Soft green, Jawar or Wheat-like.
If its the same "Ponk", then thanks guys. It brings fond memories of childhood wherein our family used to go to our village & our farm there, used to bake "Ponk" & have it, with an option of having it with Sugar.

lets compile list of the final attendees around 14th August

August 14 will be too late. We need to keep updating this thread with list of confirmed members and who are coming with vehicles so we don't have to overload on the D day.

As of now I (plus one) will come either in my SX4 or Punto. From the other confirmed members, how many of you plan to bring your vehicle? Give us name of the vehicle too.

I might be going out of town with family on the 14th, but that depends on wifey's leave approval. If that trip doesn't materialise, I will also join you guys @ Sunny Da Dhaba @ 12.30 PM on Aug 15; will let Amit & Sanjeev know for sure by next mid-week. I drive a Red Palio 1.6 Sports.

Cheers,
Vikram

I'm sure someone is taking care of the financials as well. I suggest we have a fixed contributing amount at the start and manage all the group expenses from the fund. This would avoid having unjustified individual spendings at the event and feel sorry at the latter stage for having spent more than others.

Well said Sunil, we were thinking of posting the same.

So guys, who wants to handle the Finance

lets make a central pool of sorts and deposit our contributions with the Finance Manager. Any Volunteers ?

Also, suggestions are welcome for the Contributions

Who haggled with Sunny's last time? He got a great deal for the meet. Either get him to do it again or mention TBHP to Sunny's when deciding the food and bill.
