I am very pleased to see our members getting together and getting to know each other. Brihacharan Ji, thank you for arranging this meet.
I made some fantastic friends on this board who are my friends for life now. I would echo Brihacharan's words about our members from the same locations making the efforts to reach out and meet each other.
Best-
Vikram

Kudos to Brihacharan for organising it... and for picking up the tab!
Look forward to reading about the party you chaps throw for him... you chaps have about 8 months to plan/ organise his 75th birthday bash
Cheers!

Now you have gone and done it
mundaire - you have put the 'Mumbaikar IFGians' on the spot! They must come up with a birthday bash that none can beat for

Hi Skyman,
> Nice to know I remind you of your "Excellent" Maths teacher - And coming to the wit part - I am reminded of a story concerning the famous Hollywood Comedian Bob Hope....

Bob replied "Sure I'm, but with the ones who walk on 'High Heels'

Dear Mundaire et al,
Thanks for the advance warning - we shall be prepared and go airborne at a moment's notice.
YESSS ! It will be an honor to celebrate Brihji's landmark birthday in a style befitting IFG and Brihji's personality !
Now keeping the fingers crossed for the Japaloupe IFG Meet. Since the world seems hell-bent on proving the Mayans wrong on Dec 21st, we shall celebrate our Born-Again - rather Not-Ended status in Jan 2013. So "japaloupe", rein in and tether those horses - here we come.

Feels great to be part of this gathering, and hope to have many such gatherings with lots and lots of IFGians in future. AGN got me a little green speaking about the meetings with IFGians in Delhi & Pune....
And Mundaire sir, Brihaji's Platinum will compete with the Queens Diamond!! Of course, all IFGians, wherever they are, are invited.
And CKK, you were supposed to come over to Mumbai to share a cigar or two??

essdee1972 I regret that I haven't been able to keep my promise so far, to accept your generous invitation to sip some 'smoky' single malts with you and draw on a fine habano. However, a promise is a promise and I will make it a point to meet up with you when I am India next.
