It started off with a ride to Zak's home in E-city. The dude's got a classy 3 BHK on a real bargain rate. While we waited for him to transform himself into his classy self, we (myself & Kicha) played Postal2 - just like how the movie trailer suggests - its disgusting, retarded & shocking - to say the least! Keep away if you are the "Love your neighbour/enemies as yourself" types - this one is not certainly for you!!
Anyway once that was done, I took both of them for a guided tour of the Infy campus. It was tiring but fun. Showed them the gym and the food courts and various shaped buildings of Infy infrastructure & recreational facilities.
Heritage Building
Pyramids - Media center
Recreation - Swimming pool
We also managed to play Basketball and Volleyball for half an hour. Once that was done, we proceeded to Marathahalli to Brand factory for my shopping. We spent nearly 2 hours there looking through the various brands and doing our shopping. At the end of it, we had nearly spent 5K - but every penny worth the value:) When we were nearly done, Ashwin (Raks bro-in-law)called and we met up with him. Following that, it was a very good time spent listening to "soft" music and eating, drinking & making merry;)By the time we were done, it was nearly 22:30 and we went all the way to BTM to munch on the ever delicious "Paratha rolls" - Double Egg Chicken for me;) For those of you who have been in bangalore and not tasted this one, you are missing something - this is a small dhaba in BTM 2nd stage just before the new flyover. Its awesome and pretty reasonable as well (and you get both veg and non-veg:)). Post dinner we went back home and had a good sound sleep tired from the hectic outing of one day!
Sunday - church, had to get my luggage sorted out, met Asha and Sheba (cousins recovering from a bout of flu) and met Satishchachan (dad's cousin). Had a good time and then in the evening had dinner with Kicha at Casapicola. Got back home and watched "Baba Kalyani" (Mohanlal flick) and slept off eventually!!
Well that was my weekend!
On the Sporting side - Beckham made a perfect bow-out of the la-liga with the Spanish title in his kitty! What a comeback after capello sidelined him calling him a second-rate hollywood actor - It has been an amazing turn around by Becks and what better way to exit than win the league title after a wait of 4 years!!!!!
In motorsports - the Brit is taking the world by a storm. Near perfect driving by the kid. Alonso seems to be loosing the plot and his mind! Let's see what he comes up with next after his tirade last time that the British team is favouring the Briton!!!lol. Anyway the constructors seem to be more or less wrapped up by the Mclaren's unless the Ferrari's come up with something really superlative and Kimi/Massa start winning races (1-2 finish) regularly!! 7 races and therez already a 35-point gap between them! Season may turn out to be much more exciting than the last one. Hoping that Ferrari makes a turn-around just like last year where they very nearly pulled it off in the second-half of the season, only to be edged out courtesy one man - Mr. Alonso!!!
