Warm, sunny morning. Good attendance. Lots of positive vibes. Srichand Arora sharing his tube of mosquito repellant with those wearing half pants. A surprisingly well-behaved Hari Narayani sporting a benevolent smile. Razia Khan asked to pay personal attention to a new lady having difficulty with the exercises. Bhaswati Bose dropping by to inform she’d be away on vacation till the 15th. Yusuf Rassiwala, in bright maroon T-shirt, singing along with the music system…
The ladies suggested that he also change his black cap to perhaps, a matching red, if only to stop Kishor Babani from addressing him as “Kali Topi Waley Pandurang Baba”. But Yusuf-bhai obviously takes pride in his black cap. And while singing Nakhre Wali with Kishore Kumar on the player, he kept mischievously pointing at the ladies in general, till the part when the song came to, ‘Beraham, Bewafaa…’
“Dekhiye Razia-ji,” he called. “Kishore kya keh rahein hain!”
Razia Khan thought he meant Kishor-bhai. “Renu ko keh raha hoga,” she snapped back.
Today’s music had obviously a lot to do with the general bonhomie among members. Even Arora-sah’b could not hold himself from taking pot shots at unsuspecting members, till everybody felt encouraged to play the fool with one another instead of exercising. And then, he had to show his true colours by suddenly shouting, “Oyyyeee, khamosh!!!” A pin drop silence descended. But only for a while.
What a wonderful way to start the day.

Although I didn't attend this morning, looks like everyone is back to their usual selves. I am sure Mr Shekawat must have been remembered today alongwith his wife. However, as long as everyone gets along and has fun in the process, what more does anyone want? I am sure things will continue this way and with such great weather, attendance will be good as well.
