Richmonds SUCKS!!!

Will come to the reason for the title later. Had gone to Vir-da dhaba a few days back. The last time I had gone there was for a treat from my colleagues in the company when they had got a salary rise. This time though went with my college frnds. When we were on the highway, we saw a very nasty accident (saw in the sense it had already taken place). I saw a man (Ankur says he saw 2) lying down near a scooter, probably some truck might have hit him. Not a single vehicle on the expressway stopped to help the victim/s n some pedestrians were just silent observers. Nobody wishes to face the police inquiry fearing tht he/she would be falsely implicated. The worse part was tht we all were on the other side of the highway so couldn't cross to help them. But, then heard an ambulance siren n hoping tht the persons were still alive we proceeded to the dhaba. When we reached the dhaba, it wasn't crowded as the last time. But, the owner was playing loud music which was very irritating since the songs his taste was very bad (tht simply means not matching with mine.. lol). Soon we were devouring food n got involved in our conversations tht we totally forgot 'bout the accident .. well tht is life. Anyways had a good time but missed the dholwala (he plays only on saturday). Then decided to go to the local coffee shop Durga. But while coming Suraj's bike got punctured, luckily found a garage nearby n got it repaired. When we reached Durga it was overcrowded (as usual) but since we wanted a place to sit we opted for the newly opened branch of Richmonds on the opposite side of the road. The shop which is known for the icecreams it serves had enough space to accomodate us. We ordered cold coffee n it sucked big time. It was HORRIBLE. All the good taste our tongues were carrying after a fulfilling meal was washed away. So anyone going to Durga, stick to it even if it means sitting on ur bike outside. U can see the 'R' of Richmonds in the pic.. right hand top

Dad came back last evening from a month long tour to Ladakh. He saw the Pakistan n China borders n the bunkers of the Chinese army frm our army's posts. He has got some amazing snaps of Ladakh n the wildlife there which (i hope) i will get scanned n post it. Time to buy a digital camera to avoid the scanning task ... but then u all will be bombarded with my pics which i think u won't like.. he he he.
