I’ve tried to make it a point that I spend my birthday in Mumbai (except last year). It usually isn’t a big affair. I normally celebrate it with Marise whose is on 15th. The same was the case this year as well.
Went over to her place a little before lunch. The Bus No. 39 is [...]

On August 16 around 9.35am, a young woman gave birth to a tubby baby boy. The boy is no longer a baby nor tubby but a young handsome man of twenty-six (OK! I am a narcissus )

My grandmother gave me the well preserved notification in the newspaper on which my grandfather had neatly [...]

Happy 24th Birthday dear Marise “Lobo”

August is always a high-activity month with a huge number of birthdays and other occasions.
Freshers’ Party
After being postponed several times, the Fresher’s Party finally took place on August 6.
Dance parties aren’t really my favorite and this is usually no exception, especially when the DJ should pay for playing the trash he dished out!
Without doubt, I [...]

Dad’s down for another day and when he is down, we usually set out for a father-son-on-a-bike-visiting trip. This time the destination was banks. We visited five banks in the area of Andheri and Vile Parle.
We also managed to grab some vadapav and sugarcane juice, both of which will be eternal favourites for any [...]

So happy birthday to them both (they don’t read my blog )

Awoke later than what I have been doing the past few days and went to meet the Mouse. Picked up some “veg” stuff from Owen Fresh (first time [...]

I have an habit of forgetting birthdays and events and so this should come as no surprise that I forgot my third blog birthday on October 1

And let me take the opportunity to thank all my readers! The blog today wouldn’t have been so successful if not for you folks
So give yourself a [...]

The Mouse dropped in on Saturday for a short visit, befor we went shopping. It was about time I bought her a birthday gift!
We went over to Shoppers’ Stop in Andheri W to pick up something.

After a good deal of searching we finally picked up something small. Dropped her at Andheri station and then headed [...]

Got together with Marilyn today and gave a small snack party to the choir today to celebrate our birthdays.
Picked up some chocolate balls and chicken pattice from Merwan’s in Andheri West, some chips from Hotchips and cold drinks (yes we drink Pepsi inspite of the pesticide scare).
Choir practice was good. Unfortunately, I won’t be able [...]
