There was once a philosopher who happened to be a female wearing some stingy clothing who also used to sing something of this sort: "Under my umbrella... ah.. ah... eh.. eh..." "You break ma heart ....."

I didn't know veelu was one of her fans and an avid follower! LOL!!!

Same goes with Patchy's Palio. Then, all cars follow.

15200 kms of trouble free driving in 185 days.
FE of 14+ in city with 60% AC and 18+ Highway with 50% AC.
Driven on roads as bad as Gundlupet-Ooty and now Vagamon, still rattle free.
Did that off-roading at Vagamon without stalling or heating up.
Butter smooth gear shift and super silent engine.

Same goes with Patchy's Palio.

That statement covers it all I guess.

Cheers,

Rajan

Zak - But this was a Johns umbrella.

speedzak · 20th June 2008, 23:15

Veelu, don't you know that the manufacturer of John's umbrella is named Rihanna???

Patchy, You are a real sport! I truly appreciate it man! And I've seen how nicely you look after your 1.1 Beauty. Bring her for the next drive too. We will all love seeing her again. :

Speedzak,

Thanks Buddy. Will certainly do. Check out my post D.R.I.V.E. signature.

When is the next one

Cheers,

Rajan

Not sure if its your umbrella, Veelubhai, but there's one extra umbrella in my boot at the end of the trip. If its yours please pick it up from Zak.

While on the topic, I'm missing one Giotto Tripod and my iPod cover.

@ Patchy - How about the next meet in Wyanad? My son has been following this thread and he's heartbroken at having missed out. He wants me to 'arrange' one more trip with the same people when he's there!

No dodgy resorts, please. I'd like to sleep!

When? When? When?? Gimme the dates, quickly

Seriously, lets do it. I loved it in Kalpetta. May be we can plan for Vythiri. I am sure your son will love staying in a Tree House.

Lets start a new thread and start planning..

Cheers,

Rajan

Veelubai · 20th June 2008, 23:41

Steer - Thats fine, you can hand it over to Zak and he will carefully inspect wether its the same John's/Rihanna umbrella that Iam talking about.

Thank you.Also hoping to meet your son sometime soon and lets see if Dreamland has any of their concerns in Wayanad.lol

Guys,looks like we have enough things lost to start a "lost and found" thread

speedzak · 20th June 2008, 23:47

If Veelu's umbrella is in the truck, I will check it tomorrow morning (too lazy to check it out now). Rihanna does a good job in making umbrellas open up in tight and wet situations.

BTW, guys! Anything that happened in the meet or connected to the meet won't be off topic here I suppose. Post up if you have any doubts to clear/ask anything.

Steer, Wynad is calling!!! Eh??? No dodgy resorts unless some DySp decides to go on a havoc there. We will call it CSI: Wynad then!!!

Veelubai · 20th June 2008, 23:52

Zak - Pls check it out whenever possible. No hurry and after the monsoon drive there are signs of rain as well

Steer, if the trip is between 5th & 30th July, let him know that he'll be seeing a very familiar face.

The tripod is in the back of the front passenger seat of the truck Santhosh. It was there when I threw away that Guava.
