Elphi Days

Man..its has been ages since I heard from the people on this blog. Hats off to Bhatia - you have been one hell of a resourceful blogger to get all of us connected.

Elphi days seem a lifetime ago -- I remember doing TP in the alcoves, eating kilos of potato-omelet's in the milk bar and copying in the maths exams from Murtuza. This was followed by our after college beer drinking sessions at Mondi's (we graduated to Gokul -- but that's another story reserved for another blog). I do remember all of us being at our best behaviour at Nerrisa's birthday party at her home (if I remember well, she used to stay next to one of our English prof's) -- Lawrence what are you doing in New Zealand??.

The world is a small place though and I have bumped into 2 guys from Elphi here in Kuwait -- one is Sampat the guy who used to manage the Elphi canteen he now manages a bunch of restaurants. Another is Parker (I forget his first name), I bumped into him at an ATM a year back. He works for DHL -- I will fish out his card and invite him to this blog.

And ohh yessss, Chhil, before I left Mumbai, I met Swaroop, she works for HPCL and the first thing she asked me was if I was in touch with you and had your number -- so dude you know who you have to absolutely get in touch with.

That's all for now. Do stay in touch.
