Long weekend

Had a very long weekend.
Had been to my wifeys office for family day on Thursday and got to meet asim, who offered me to join their football group. Although an holiday, friday was very boring but enjoyed my time with kiddo.
Started early on saturday and was on FC ground at 7am. These guys turned up late and started playing at 8am. Didnt do the ... See Morewarm-up thinking of conversing energy :)
Started with scoring the very first goal and with lot of spirit as I was playing for the first time in pune after a really long break. But then lost on stamina and retreated back as goalie.
By 9:30, was fully exhausted and took break for water.

Sunday was more fun as we decided to visit my in-laws.
For lunch, had nice fish fry but was not able to suff much as it was too late.
Luckily got to play box-cricket after a very long time. There was this bet of "pepsi for all" wherein loser has to pay the bill.
Played couple of games and had a great time.
Recalled my engg days where we had some fierce box-cricket matches. I still remember my teammates shyam, vallabh, amit and moholkar all putting up excellent show to scare the hell out of our seniors.

So all charged up to play more now.
But first, seems like will have to get into shape again.
Looking forward to it :)

My Startup - The beginning

Background The idea struck way back in 2007 when I was playing for IMM team in Bangalore. This group used to organize regular matches and an annual tournament with rival group BTM. We used to have high drama even for the local weekend matches. Surprisingly there was no way to publish results on any cricketing site. So I pushed the scorecard and match details on wordpress blog. Here is the link to the older blog: Marathi Cricket blog From then on, me and prashant - who was also teammate at IMM, always discussed on how to setup such a website on our own. But then I moved to pune and things got slowed down due to lack of time. We were always in touch and the idea to start was still in our heads. Meantime, I was looking at different db schemas and tried to come with one on my own. For almost 3 years, we were not sure how to go for this startup. So we tried our hands with joomla. And once we saw that we can build our own custom module like the way we wanted it, we became s...

First Goa Trip!

After a very long time, we decided to visit goa. The rainy season didnt hinder us and we were all set to go. Booked the dona sylvia resort for a stay of 3 nights and 4 days. This resort in mobor-margoa in south goa. Opted for 2nd-5th July as I had optional holiday on 5th july. We planned to take the pune-kolhapur-nipani-amboli-sawantwadi-panji-margao route. Pre-week situation: Our trustworthy 2 year old wagonR was running into lot of deep water. Had AC failure, non-functioning horn, frequent typre punctures and wipers out of shape. We did try the local MASS in baner, but it was of no good.  All these issues had to be sorted out before the travel. So was looking out for some MASS on par with Bimal of bangalore. One of my relative suggested the chougule MASS near katraj.  Dropped the car on tuesday and got it on back in wednesday with all the problems rectified. Went there personally to check the service center and it turned out to be very good. Now my wife, manisha informed...

Flowers to the rescue

Every day, the one thing that helps me to completely relax and switch off the insane work schedule is the early morning gardening task! Its so damn easy to get beautiful flowers. They just need some water and sunlight. Must confess that I never thought this task would become so dear to me!
