i reached the place with missus n kid at 7pm and found betty (with her mishter), akhil, sherry, dare*, rock-boi, labelle, The Orc, Pingu.



made some loud conversation with all...by that time General saheb, Jungle and IMFB arrived and promptly disappeared somewhere....



i got some coffee n baby corn fingers n continued the talk with the seated group...



very soon HP arrived with his wife n baby...he was there for abt 45 minutes b4 leaving coz his baby was getting restless..



in the meantime Jackal arrived, follwed soon by Sergey himself! yes YCee finally made it to the meet! meanwhile jackal also disappeared somewhere...



more talk while my wife n i took turns running behind my son who decided to explore the place.



at the end just past 8, all decided to go for dinner...all except my wife, son and i...coz it wud be too much of a challenge to our sanity to take my frisky kid to a restaurant...



after the rest left for dinner, my wife n i had pizzas, subway subs n left by 9.

Well, heres my report.

The day hadnt been very gr8. tho india won the match and the series 6-1. The mechanic had spoilt the fun by releiving me of a lot of cash citing ‘much needed repairs’ to my scooter .



Neways I reached ES at 5.40 pm (10 mins behind schedule), there was no trace of neone from the borads. I met a friend and spoke to him for abt 10 mins, during the convereation I kept looking arnd for ne familiar faces, but none were visible. 6 pm and I was felt like i was made a MTV Bakra. thoughts of a sinister plan by all the FHDBians against me started moving arnd in my mind, so I bought myself a coffee at arnd 6.15.



By 6.30 I was finished with my coffee and had almost decided to make a move. One hour delay was way too much by even hyderabadi standards. but just then betty walked in. Phew. She had just setteled down when labelle followed. The sinister plan thingy had left my mind by then.



The next 2 hours flew by. Met pingu and dareversesting (which as he explained is ‘the riverse sting’). Sherry came with dare. General, Jungle and IMFB came and left for ciggies within no time. BW finally gave me the rock music CD. My mom already loves those songs



Met CAD jnr. Watch out for him ppl. He’s gonna be the next big star on FH HP sar came at arnd 7.30 with Mrs. HP and HP Jnr. HP jnr is just too cute YCR appeared from no where. DQ, ZC, Plefp, Mods were the hopt topics of discussion.



At arnd 9 pm, 7 of us (Mrs. and Mr Betty, Me, YCR, Pingu, rock, Labelle)left for Our Place in banjara hills for dinner. I and rock reached there first and were greeted by ‘Chhahunga mein tujhe Shaam Savere’, which was being sung in way that even Mohd. Rafi saab cldnt have matched. The singer obviously wasnt being paid/fed properly and was taking out his

anger on us. I requested the waiters to feed him. but they thot i was joking .

Betty and co. came in after five mins, followed by Ycr and pingu, who left almost immediately.



The steward said they don’t serve free onions, which majorly pissed-off all of us. Any way, we placed the orders and discussed various issues rangng from ‘who works harder at the workplace - males or females’ to ‘su-shi’. Mr and Mrs Betty shared an unforgettable expirience they had at Yatri Nivas. that was darn hillarious.



After abt 20 mins the food appeared. Curries were good (chicken kali mirch, chicken tikka masala, Malai Kofta and Mix Veg). But the roti’s felt like papad’s . The waiters cldnt understand a word of wht we trying to say...it took a lot of explaining to make sure that the next set of roti’s was soft. Theres an unwritten rule, it seems, that if u dont ask for soft roti’s u’ll not get them. u shd have told that to us before, we argued,

but theres wasnt ne response.



Ne ways we finished wht ever was served. Before the bill, came the feedback form and quite in explicably only the ladies were asked for the feedback . But betty and Labelle made sure that we had our say too .



Dinner over, we decided to have Ice Cream at melting moments. This time me and rock went on me scooter. It was darn cold at the KBR park road, but none of us was complaining a lot, coz we both love cold weather . the ice cream was gr8. Mr. and Mrs. Betty narrated some funny incidents from there college days.



At arnd 11.30 we decided to call it a day. I dropped YCR at punjagutta, while rock and labelle hitched a ride in betty’s gaadi.



For me it was a gr8 end to the day.

Whoa! Lagta hai gaadi ko kuch nai hua...warna mereku to tum itti asaani se bhool nai sakte



Well,As said by CAD & Akhilbhai, it was a good meet. Though the strength was never 100%, it was fun throughout.

I wrapped up some unexpected work@aapice & landed at ES at about 7:30 .Looked all around xcept the Left Entrance and after abt 10 mins of hunting about.,I finally spotted akhilbhai's Bright Fluoroscent Orange Tee

Intros over, I made myself Comfy with da group. Met Cad,HP,Betty,Rock,Sherry,Dare & Jackal for the first time. Jackal was like 'Hi Man! Nice to meet U!' and poof! disappeared allovasudden

I was looking fwd to meeting General Saab & Orc but sadly missed da opportunty! the rock fest ate away our meet's glory somewhat!



Some of the points that I found mention-worthy are:

• Rock is a Quite-Quiet Boy!


• All the married members came with their spouses-Barring Akhilbhai!!!


• Sherry was soo busy that he does'nt find time to post but he made it to the meet!


• He looked different from the last meet's pix (why? I wasn't told!)


• None of the ladies (Xcept Lab & Betty) made it to da meet!


• Out of the four n00bies, only dare & pingu showed up


• Thankfully, Pingu came unlike his avatar!

The Oft-Discussed members were the Mods & DQ Discussions wavered from the mundane to the predictable with a bit of Humour thrown in.cad was as witty as on da boards and HP was as usual calm & rational. Both the dads had their hands full with their kids.Hats off to them! and to Mrs. Cad & Mrs.HP also.
Bettyji came across as an Outspoken & Commanding lady and for a moment I was wondering whether She was a HR manager! Coz I'd seen some HRM's quite like her...Brr...They command Respect! And though she 'accused' me of addressing her as 'aunty' I am innocent-until-proven-guilty

Some things that i found missing were:

• No mention was made about Kavitha.


• The Old-But-New members went missing after sometime!


• Kiddo,Ar!e$,3T'z,HH saar,Wisey,Lucifer & fl din' make it to the meet


• Akhilbhai came without his better-half!


• We did'nt have any talk about UZMA!!!


• The Mods Did'nt turn up.


• Did'nt get HP's Daughter & 'Don's name!


• And lastly, No mention at-all was made about Daisy

The Dinner was a Low-key affair,what with only 7 of us attending it and only 6 having it! We divided up into three parties-I & Pingu on a pulsar,Rock & Akhilbhai on his Vespa & Lab,Betty & Hubby in their Car.

Credit to Pingu for having negotiated Hyd Traffic,esp. with me on board!

We reached to the rather-low key rendeition of 'Tum Itna kyon Muskurarahe ho?' And after getting the food, we instantly knew the answer to: "Kya Ghum hai jisko Chuparahe ho?'-We had the Ghum of having papads as rotis

To add insult to injury,they had this 'No-Free-Onions/Lemons' kinda lame xcuse. Food was overall ok. I'd Give it a 1.5 on 5.(Shall hafta see what FH has given it) Then we packe doff to Melting Moments at JH for some Ice Cream. And whoever that said "Ice Cream ka asli Mazaa to Winter main hi aata hai!" was Damn correct! After Quickly gulping down the generous helpings, it wa stime to say Bye Byes! Akhilbhai dropped me off at Punjagutta (after a brief err... foray near YSR's house) and it brought about the end to a really Xciting Evening. It was my 2nd FH meet and at last I think I have brought those dissenting noises to an end (Esp Labelle's )

Looking Forward to yet another Meet in December when Jaan turns up in Hyd and Hopefully, the attendees list will continue to Grow that time around....







P.S: @Talky: We instructed the Hotel manager to sned the Dinner Bill to you at Pondicherry. So if you're reading this, please PM me your Address ASAP.
