A Day With Sunena Lal

A Day with Sunena Lal. In the first week of December 2004.
Yes, you heard it right.
Not a full day, but half a day, with Sunena Lal -

X-RadioCity RJ.

Actually it was she, who bumped into us.
Literally.
She hit the back bumper of Sand's Car.
And the lady was prompt to come out and apologise.

She told Sand that they would meet at Manipal
Motors in the noon to discuss the issue.
So we went in Sand's Indica - 5 of us - none knew
that the lady in qn is Ms Lal - the RJ.
We th8 it would be some good-looking chick :-)

She was with her dad.
Just 2 of 'em.
So to keep it descent, Sand and George (Arun)
went out to negotiate. We sat at a distance.

The gal was not happy at the sight of 5 boyz
getting out of the car. It was evident on her
dog-face.

IN the presence of Manipal Engrs, they started
the inspection. Geo was a mute spectator. Ms Lal
dint like his very presence.
ms Lal : Is this your car ?
Geo : No.
ms Lal : Then could you just move off ? (a bit harsh)
Geo : (VEry Very harsh) What is this ? Is this a
kinda show off ?

Those who know Geo can very well imagine Geo's
angry face when he uttered the words above.

Not much of exchange after that. She was soft
when speaking to Sand.
Finally, after giving a written statement that
she shall bear all the expenses for the
maintenance, we were about to leave. Then Geo
stepped out of the car. Sand was standing
outside. Geo suggested that they ask for
statement of work (SOW) - a formal writing.

Lal overheard this and came to them with the
intention of exchanging some words.
Amidst the argument, she asked Geo
"What is your name?"

Geo : (in full fury) Its none of your BLOODY business.

We overheard this, and we were THE HAPPY :-)
Finally, Geo was dragged into the car (otherwise,
he would have slapped her) and v left.

We wonder, whether this gal quit RadioCity, or
was kicked out !

Travelogue - Pannis2Nanni

Nandi Hills - A scenic place at the outskirts of Bangalore.
The trip was made one fine weekend in early December, 2004

Here is the travelogue..

It was an allSHIT Day for Rat - only literally.
Anywhere and everywhere we went, if there is shit
of any categories, he would step on it. His Times
of India .. what else should I say ?!!

The trip started off at 6.30 AM.
In two vehicles - Kiron's Bolero and Sand's Indica.

As usual, Jins and Aneesh were kept waiting for
quite a while. And finally when the pickup
vehicle came, there was a shower of 'Sanskrit'..
And again as usual, Dipu started crying for
"Chaaya"
To avoid confusion in Jins' mind, there was an
announcement every 10 mins - "We are going to
Nandi Hills" :D

Reached Nandi at 10.30. Its just 60 km from the
city. A high altitude place (more than 1.5Km
above sea level). Very cold. Not much of manly
disturbance to the huge number of our ancestors
there..

The sight atop the hill was amazing. You could
see 'horizon' in all its beauty - the sky and the
land meeting at a straight line; the top of the
line being blue and the bottom brown.
Sat on rocks gazing this for half an hour. Then
left out for more exploration deep inside.
The absence of a camera was irritating.
We had a camera with us, in fact, but no battery.
The battery, bought at Nandi wont just work !

Our official photographer Dipu had left his
camera in the safe co-ordinates of his office.
Stupid idiot !
All he was interested in was Guava.

AJ aka aanatham, as usual stepped in, and
accomplished a lot of goals - of the usual type
;D

Jins was at his playful best.
Noting that the monkeys are looking out for
snacks, he loaded the 'little hearts' pkt with
small stones and gave it to a monkey.
The veteran monkey filtered out the stones and
tasted the pieces of bsct that were left out.

Roaming around the hill for about 1.5hrs, we
started our trip back.
It was Kiron-Jins team's Bday treat.
At Sue's A-La-Carte (whatever that means)
It is a Carribean restaurant - Buffette.

Made merry there - full of noise. The other
fellow-eaters who are supposed to be "high
profile society ppl" couldnt help givin us a
stare. Who cares ? :-)

When the dishes were almost cleaned up, we
decided to call it a day. Jins wont ! He went on
to take multiple trips of the dessert. The name
of the pudding, btw, is Mariya Mol. This was
being discussed between the old lady (who seemed
to be the owner of the hotel) and some other
guests. Geo over heard this and went to the lady
"Is your name Mariya Mol". She burst into
laughter and corrected. "No dear, its the name of
the dish".

All of us loaded our tummies with delicacies like
chicken, fish cutlet, crab, pulav (very little of
this) and dessert.

Back home at 3PM.
Switched to hibernation mode. Till 6.15PM.
Slept like a dog !

Went to 4M in the eve - Rat, Lee and Dipu.
Saw off lee at 12.15 AM.
End of the Day.
