OK... a.net is an international site.. there were meetings in LHR, FRA, YYZ etc etc etc.. there even were meetings in BOM.. and now we had a mini meeting in DEL! OK, it was a mini-meet, as Vimanav and IndianFlyboy could not attend.. but as AirIndia came back for a visit, he and MrNiji met at the latter's residence.. pics included, and a small vid with a message to the fellows in BOM! Comments welcome
Here you can see AirIndia alias Guru:
Guru was on the way to a family dinner close to my place, so he decided to stop by here fo a couple of hours..
Here is whom he mel: MrNiji alias Subin, unphotogenic as usual
So, and now the group photos:
and now, MrNiji, unphotogenic as usual, not able to close his 'bright eyes'
And, exclusivly for airliners dot net: the first video appearance:

So, as promised... the second round of PICS!
This time, we met in East of Kailash at Guru's (AirIndia) place. From there, you have a fantastic view on DEL:
In the very back, you can see the Nehru Stadium (for those who know DEL..). Left of it, small, Humayuns Tomb in Nizamuddin
Now, this pic shows a Bisleri Truck, the yellow-green CNG autos, as well as these horrible DEL buses...
Now come the stars.. warning: MrNiji looks stupid, as usual, on pics.. he looks much, much better in reality
So, this was Guru alias AirIndia, phoning, doing business etc... now comes MrNiji alias Subin
Man, I just can't stand cameras, it was bright and the Dust was in the wind.. [The lyrics of that song are amazing, wah? I think it was made in my birthyear... ] Dust in the wind is a good description of DEL at the moment, it is dry, hot and dusty

Quoting HAWK21M (Reply 11): Good View.
Guru....What floor is your Apartment on.
Hi Mel,
We are on the 7th & 8th floor. This small balcony was on the 8th floor.
Quoting HAWK21M (Reply 11): Guru.....Did you ctc the Estate Agent in Mumbai near the Airport yet
yes I did. But its still turning out to be really high. Also, I hope to get myself back in Del in the next 3-4 months.... so I guess I can continue in Goregaon.

Quoting AirIndia (Reply 12): , I am awaiting the pics you took from your 300SLR.... they wud be great...
Should get them developed soon and will get a photo CD and email them (and publish the good ones here).. I hope these people repaired it properly (was broken, as I told you, and I still have warranty)
Quoting AirIndia (Reply 12): so I guess I can continue in Goregaon.
The best is that these are resized dramatically.. you should see the full quality pigs (3 MB per pic)... wah! - the camera is great (Pentax just rocks, same with my other cam), and I got the battery problem under control with high capacity rechargable AA's from Germany..

Subin....It woud be great if your trip & Ollys coincide.
Guru....Makes sense to opt out of the house if you'r going back to Del.
Currently how/when you plan to return to Mumbai.

I returned yesterday morning. but immediately reported to office and got drowned in work. I took the Indian Railways on the return leg.... I was lucky to have some good chicks on board...
Will be sharing my experience on DN shortly. maybe over the weekend....
