Ahoy.....
Whatever happened to the Delhi meet?

Junta, let's dust off our lethargy and meet.

I suggest 7th Nov - Thursday 6.30 pm at CP Barrista. If even one person agrees, I will surely be there.

Kindly pour in with your confirmations.

Dear VIKB and all Delhi members,

I am new member and surely want to meet all. But VIKB, will it be possible on sat or sun? Please reconsider the date if possible.

Regards

Madhusoodan

jamwal · Post by **jamwal** » 28 Oct 2009 18:29

Please pay attention:

According to forum rules, new members have to pay for food and drinks in a BR meet.

VikB · Post by **VikB** » 30 Oct 2009 11:55

^^^ I agree

Ymadhusoodan - I think the recent stuff I have been smoking has made me go bonkers, 7 Nov IS a Saturday !!!

So can we have roll call of all people confirming their presence

Jamal K. Malik · Post by **Jamal K. Malik** » 30 Oct 2009 17:33

^^^ Yes Sir.

neerajb · Post by **neerajb** » 30 Oct 2009 17:46

How about (another) BR Meet in Delhi during the DEF EXPO 2010 ? I think it is in mid Feb. I plan to attend this time as I missed it the last time. We did have a BR Meet in Delhi during DEF EXPO, many dozens of full moons ago. During the last (few !) DEF EXPO I tried to have a meet which resulted in just "Raj Malhotra" and myself spending an interesting evening.

Kersi Da, surely we can have a meet at the next Def Expo. We can identify the date early when we can try to converge our individual plans to visit the Expo.

Do try to come to this meet.

Hey VikB

I am not in Delhi. I will (may) be there for DEF EXPO 2010 and would like to attend a BR Meet if it there around that time.

manjgu · Post by **manjgu** » 05 Nov 2009 12:27

vikb,,,, i will be coming. But i am bit confused about time and location..

6.30 pm will be dark and where in central park ?? it is better to think of a fixed / definite place where one can assemble and sit for some time... and have a few eats/drinks.. as a person who has organised quite a BR meets in the past ( and also passes for defexpo)... i can recommend govardhan ( near IIT Delhi ) .. they have a great place to sit downstairs and for as long as we want...

where is the vakil saheb from supreme court and the small arms specialist??

RayC · Post by **RayC** » 05 Nov 2009 12:52

My good wishes are with you and wish you all success even though I am not in Delhi.

Do give us a feedback!

It is always good to hear from you and your deliberations!

AdityaM · Post by **AdityaM** » 05 Nov 2009 13:16

Manjgu, I agree on 2 counts!

1) Its getting cold and dark for the central park.
2) its a stones throw away!

Although it may not appeal to many.

manjgu - I always say - nothing beats experience (pun intended

)
The venue has just been shifted to Govardhan, near IIT at 6.30 pm. manjgu - please give exact location.

Anyone having problem with the venue in terms of reaching it may please let me know. I may be able to offer shuttle service from CP/India Gate.

Kersi da, next meet at Defexpo for sure.

Received two more mails with ph numbers - from Neerajb and Jamal. Requesting others to send mail please.

RayC Saar, please tell your location and we will have a special meet there only to meet you onliee

RayC · Post by **RayC** » 05 Nov 2009 14:02

Kolkata.

I will organise it in Fort William Institute.

manjgu · Post by **manjgu** » 05 Nov 2009 14:18

Well the directions are as under >

if you are travelling from IIT to Qutub Minar , you first cross Essex Farms ( restaurant..to your left) and then Mothers school ( on your left).. then there is a redlight... 300 meters ahead there is another redlight ( adhchini red light which is a T junction, right turn goes towards Qutub Institutional area)... from this redlight take a U turn again towards IIT.. 200 meters from the redlight ( after making the u turn) on your left is govardhan restaurant... there is a guard outside, who helps you park on the busy street...

hope this is clear else i could draw a map...

jai · Post by **jai** » 05 Nov 2009 16:34

Hi Vikb,

Just sent you the mail and number. Please let me know if I can help in any way in organizing the meet. Also, if the restaurant allows, we can bring along some drinkies to liven up the evening..

Cheers !
