Suren, nice pics there. Looks like we have quite a few touring Mallus. The Scorpio dude (Ramkya) from Gujarat, and now you from Hyderabad.

Wow Suren! Nice write up along with classy pics. Seen your regn number and could not help saying this in a true andhra isshtylee " Iragadeesavu Anna" .
Once again good write up and pics. Keep them coming.

And you forgot the main MALLU, who guides all other mallus, non-mallus, males, females, desi, videshi etc

when it comes to indian highways.
YES, I am talking of Mr H.V.Kumar

Hai Sureen,

Great account and pictures.

I too was there in Nelliampathy on 8th, took some photos of the waterfalls.

Making a trip log and writing the account and collating the photos. Will take some doing.

I think the Mallu's have the gypsey-genes coming up from somewhere, or is it the Kerala Water?

Happy Driving,

-Ramky

I think same goes to Hoogly water as well Ramky sir

Some similarities like Communist States, Highway eating genes, fish-eaters etc etc

Yeah, me too! There is also a bit of controversy between his travelogue and kutlee's--he says they overtook kutlee's OHC and his kids liked listening to the OHC's FFE. But kutlee says Suren met up with him when he was fixing his flat tyre!
Sorry for so much attention to detail

Hey vnabhi

at your attention to detail. Yes, kutlee's OHC did have a puncture and it is how we could catch up with him. No controversy in that yaar.

Thanks to all of you for the encouragement and the compliments. However there would be a slight delay since I'm driving to Chennai tomorrow and would be back only on the 23rd. Trying to get my Second free service (9000 ~ 10,000kms) done ASAP, the car has already crossed 7,000 + kms since March 28 2008, thats around 83 days approximately.

Ravi sir if you had asked this question after one month it would have marked the 1st year Anniversary for the last message posted on this thread.
