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 :)

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...

Bengaluru Again!

Moved to Bengaluru from Pune in  July. Its was a tough situation to travel in this covid19 pandemic. Fortunately we moved with ease. We stayed in Pune for close to 10 years and made several friends. Hopefully I should be able to keep in touch with them. At the same time, looking forward to meet my pals here!

Metro in pune

Metro in pune (28th Jan 2010) Now officially the govt has given the green signal to this project. As everyone knows, this decision was delayed quite a few times and god knows when it all had started. I find one thing that is common between these projects from pune and bangalore. These projects were approved once the land/flat prices  had reached there peak values. bangalore real estate prices were already were at its peak then and people thought it will bubble down. then came the metro and surely it helped push the prices upwards. So i am trying to understand the bigger picture. Did these cities had congestion problems earlier- yes. Did these cities had high real estate growth earlier- yes Did these cities had heavy migrant population leading to influx of lot of people- yes. Did these cities expanded like crazy- yes. The last one is really the one thing i consider to be the reason behind this. Both these cities expanded in residential boundaries. say now people are ...
