Dinner in Kothagudem

Monday,March,2012
Last Monday turned out to be another successful day for us as six of us could meet together after a long time.The only people missing were Deepanjan,meeting whom has become a once-in-a-year affair,shoaib who is always 'busy' in Hyderabad,and p,who was busy with his project work with Indian Railways.
    Five of us,Akram,Abhishek,Bhanu,Kiran and myself were staying in colony while swat was in Kothagudem, about to start his project in Singareni Collieries.The actual plan was to go for dinner in Hotel Venu in Manuguru but as it turned out swat,at the last moment said he couldn't make it as he was too busy with his work.We were disappointed with this and held a voting to decide where to go .Shall we go to Kothagudem or continue to Manuguru without swat? Kothagudem won hands down.
  So we hopped on a bus to Kothagudem and reached within an hour.That hour didn't feel like an hour as the whole time in the bus was spent in laughing and shouting.We had only one task at hand on the bus: to prevent akram,who was the only one to bring his earphones, from listening to songs.
 After we reached,we went in hotel Cosmo to have a small snack where Kiran kept away from the place as he doesnt eat Non Veg.Next,swat came and after a round of hugs with everyone took us to his Grandma's place.There we spent some time before swat took all of us in his Maruti 800.That was some ride.we were now 7 people including rajeev,swat's friend from suryapet.the seven of us crammed inside the car.As usual i had to sit on top of someone and to ensure justice to all i spread myself over bhnau,kiran and abhishek equally :-)
 We decided to dine in Hotel Thatipalli. As usual we discussed at length and great detail about trying out new dishes but after much deliberations settled down on Biryani.Kiran as usual took Egg Biryani.The food was not much to talk about and we didn't care as the purpose of our dinner was to meet and talk, not to enjoy the food.

 After the dinner it was time to return. swat dropped us at the bus station where luckily for us a bus was just about to leave for Manuguru.we boarded it and the journey back was spent in discussing about the future of our club and how to keep the activities and fun going.Thus ended a very enjoyable meeting between all of us after a long time.

Last week bhanu came to hyderabad to get his Laptop repaired.After his work was done Banu,Akram,Soaib and myself met in Ameerpet and spent time together.here are the pics.

My 6th visit to suryapet

Had a nice get together in suryapet with abhishek,swat and p.especially the lunch at Orchids.Another great refresher for me! 

Mallangoor Fort

trip to tummalacheruvu

In search of a croc!

For the last 2 weeks Swat ,P and Kiran were in the colony due to the Telangana holidays.I had some work so I went there yesterday only for one day.Swat insisted that we go out somewhere that afternoon and i agreed.we took out our bikes and started off at 2 15 in the afternoon.Tumalacheruvu was the destination.Its a lake situated at about 3kms from mundikonta.Nestled in between 3 hills its a very beautiful and scenic place.The kacha road from mundikonta slowed down our progress but it didnt take more than 15 mins for us to reach the place.The lake is quite big with scenic hills in the background.The hills with trees covering three fourth of them and the rest with grass made an excellent background to the lake.At the side nearest to us there was a small dam.We settled down on that and took in the atmosphere.Swat visited this place quite recently with his nana and he told us he saw a crocodile.We were excited to know that crocodiles were present right in our backyard.so now swat took us to the place where he saw the crocodile.This place was even more beautiful.There was a small stream of water flowing .from a small area it diverged into a wider area spreading out.the left and right banks of this wider part were covered with lotus plants and from here the water flowed out in a slow flow.the whole place looked like a scene right out from a national Geographic documentary.we rolled up our jeans and stepped into the water.the crocodile was spotted at a distance from here so we were very careful and confined our movement to only a small area.the stream was very shallow here and the flow quite good.Akram, being the mischeif maker he is,started spalshing water on swat.Now swat retaliated by throwing much more than what akram did and very soon we were all into it and soon soaked.
All the while the thought of the crocodile was lingering in our minds.After taking some pics we moved on deeper in to the forest surrounding the lakein search of a view of the crocodile.we trudged along the stream maintaing a distance from it.we moved silently and hearing every sound.the only sounds we could hear were of the birds chirping and of the steady flow of the stream.At the exact spot where swat saw the croc we waited for sometime but to our disppointment there was nothing.as it was getting dark we reluctantly made our way back to our bikes.And thus ended a very short but as always, unforgettable trip.

Akrams B day party

This Independance day, akram,swat,abhishek and myself found ourselves in the colony.I-day was on monday and we came on saturday.And the best event of this trip was Akram's birthday party on saturday.we all took out our bikes,loaded them with petrol and took off for Manuguru.We started after iftaar and reached our usual hotel,Venu in 30 mins.Tired of eating biryanis everytime we go for a party,we ordered something different this time.we checked out a few different chicken curries with the usual, butter naans. After that lip smacking dinner we had some local sweet pans, after which we set off back to the colony.The return had a minor hitch where the headlight of my bike stopped working.Because of that our return journey took a bit longer,but  we were not complaining.For us, the longer, the better!!
Another good thing we did this time was attending the I-Day celebrations at school.Though it was a 'thanda thanda' affair unlike the grand affair it used to be in our times.
