Return to Routine

After all the activity and excitement over Manori last week, suddenly there was a lull this morning at the Garden. We were back to the grind with 17 members reporting for the exercises. Most of them had gone on the picnic and looked suitably upbeat and cheerful – if only to make the others jealous (or repentant) for missing out on all the fun at Manori. Shekhawat even commented that “those who chose not to go on the picnic, can only regret their decision now”.
Kishor Babani had his BlackBerry on to display images of the picnic from the slideshow appearing in this blog.To many (particularly those who do not have ready access to computers at home), this was an opportunity to revisit the Manori experience. The general consensus was that were it not for the picnic, we would probably not have found a reason to visit the place ever in our lives. Some like Srichand Arora are already wanting to know when and where would we be headed for the next picnic.
Meanwhile, we have the Club’s ladies-who-movie (like the ladies-who-lunch) making an appointment with Ek Main Aur Ekk Tu (right) at Cinemax for the afternoon show. The romcom about an uptight architect (Imran Khan) and a quick-witted hairstylist (Kareena Kapoor) getting married in Las Vegas after having a few drinks too many has obviously struck a sympathetic chord in Santosh Tyagi, Monthi Serrao, Bhaswati Bose, Renu and Kajal Babani. But for the men in the Club, somehow, the storyline makes no sense.
Harish Wadhwa:
* What an appetite for fun and entertainment that some wish to watch a movie now! Wah, kya baat hai!!! Nice to see ladies taking the lead to enjoy a fantasy film.
* Tomorrow is NCP Kashmir leader's Happy Birthday (14/2). Greetings in advance Mumtaz Jahan-ji. Your birthday coincides with the Valentine Day celebrations!
* By the way, our blog today hit 79,777 page views -- which means that we will soon cross the 80,000 mark and head steadily towards a six figure number. Wow, kya baat hai!!!
