I’m back. From a twenty-day trip, up north into the Himalayas. To Kailash Mansarovar and back. It was awesome!
Having said that, I’ve lost weight, gotten tanned and sort of feel the need for a vacation - after the vacation. Yup, some parts were pretty tough and tiring.
I got back a couple of days ago […]

A while ago, I was out for lunch with a few colleagues, when one of them received a call on his mobile. It was a tele-marketing call, promoting a rival mobile services brand. It seemed obvious that the marketing agency was calling a sequence of phone numbers selected randomly.
Irritating, disturbing and intrusive. I’m sure you […]

My first post here was exactly two years ago. To the day. Two years ago! Wow. How time flies. It’s very obvious that I haven’t been regular. And that’s an understatement. Well what can I say?
How about… Happy Valentine’s Day folks! :)

Travelling to and from work, by road in Mumbai takes up quite a bit of time. The state of the roads and the ever increasing traffic add to the frustration. Especially if you happen to be driving yourself.

Gosh. It’s been that long, huh? Hmmm… And there are miles to go before we sleep.
My thanks to the QLC’ites (current and ex), who made this possible; and on behalf of the entire QLC […]

One evening during the last week, my wife and I were out with a friend at a seaside cafe. It was a pleasant evening with a gentle breeze and a mild drizzle. Just the sort of evening to enjoy a cuppa. At some point the conversation drifted to work. This friend is a support executive […]

I’m back. Not that I actually went away anywhere. If you know what I mean. Now I’m here, writing this with mixed feelings.
Slightly ashamed, since writing regularly over here was something I had told myself that I would do. Unfortunately, I didn’t exercise the self-discipline required to make it happen. A little happy, since I […]

What brings a nation to a standstill?
Amongst other things, a cricket match. India v/s Pakistan. Especially if its the world cup. Such as today. People have taken off from work, the roads are relatively emptier and folks who can’t avoid it are racing to finish their chores in the morning (the match starts at 13.30 […]
