Hyderabad meet up 21st Nov

We had a lovely meet up earlier this evening at Ten Downing Street.

We had 14 Xlers turning up with an almost equal split between the 70's and the 2k+ batches. The amazing part was that everyone blended so well together, that by the end of the evening, there was no noticable age difference between any of us.

The guys from the 70's batches regaled us with a couple fo stories of the good old days and the fresh grads (I graduated in 99, so u guys r fresh grads.... Don’t mind me )coerced the rest of us into boogeying away to the music. Some of the techno stuff wasn’t really foot tapping material but, because we were on the floor we kind of shook our bodies.

Thank you, to Hari, CP, David, Joseph, Nandkumar, and Ramesh for your enthusiasm and warmth in welcoming the juniors. Thanks to Mukul, PD, Rohit, Sabya, Sohini and Saurav for your infectious energy. I also must commend you on the respect you gave the seniors. Thanks David, for giving us a reason to get together. Everyone definitely enjoyed themselves. And we partied till 11:30, after which we older folks (me included) decided it was time to put tata/bye-bye and split.

Personally, I was so happy to see an entire bunch of enthu juniors, ready to put daaru and dance. The seniors put even more enthu and Im sure each one of us will remember this evening for a long time or at least till the next gathering. We totally adhered to the agenda of having fun, so guess we should keep that as the agenda for the next one too with a promise by each to rope in at least 2 more xlers into attending. Lets give Bangalore alumni junta, a run for their top slot. Going by todays enthu levels, Im quite certain that we can.

Will give everyone, enough notice before the next Alumni gathering. Tentatively in February. Dec and Jan being busy months for most people.

So lets get rocking !!!!

In the meanwhile do send me contact details (esp email) of xl junta in Hyderabad so I can add them to yahoogroups. It’s a very low volume group. 1 or 2 mails a month. So sign up your Hyderabad based batchmates / xl colleagues in Hyd.
