Hailstorms and then some
Just another stormy Monday
Monday evening was one heck of an evening in Bangalore.
I have ridden in the middle of strong windy storms before in Bangalore but Monday evening was a different weather altogether...
Winds of speed 90kmph throwing in trees and twigs and branches all over...
I was driving through Cubbon road when I could hear all sounds of cling clang... boom crash... on my roof and the spooky sound of angry wind...
Picked hubby up and got caught in one of the worst storms ever... it was raining hail.. and trees were falling like puppets all around.
Many avoided the trees falling on their roof.. some got out and decently removed the branches.
It seemed that the trees were taking revenge on the human population the way it was crashing one after the other specially the weak branches ...
we could do nothing but sit tight as the storm passed us over...
typically as is with Bangalore weather.. after wreaking havoc, it was clear... when we reached home.... much ado about nothing... not so...

Star Wars : The Revenge of the Sith
A culmination of the cult movie and it was a good watch I must say.
Great graphics... fast storyline.. sometimes a little to fast...
Now we can all rest in peace that the story is completed...
The animation version is much better than the movie version methinks.

Waqt : A time for peanuts...
If you ever want to feel like being in a washing machine.. this is the movie to watch... SIGH
It will wring you dry of your senses...
Emotional cry baby stories are passe now ... why dont they come up with something new ??

Bangalore Railway Station Parking
I was amazed at the way the parking guys manipulate the parked cars by just pushing the front wheel with their hand. They were kind of playing chess it seemed with the parked cars as we waited for the parking space to clear.
Guiness Books where are you ? You must check this out to believe it !!
Sheer strength or just the right amount of pressure ??

Shell Petrol Bunk in Lavelle Road
Friends with cars and bikes.... diesel or petrol must try this Shell bunk. They provide awesome service and your car will never feel the same again... I highly recommend this place..

F1 scene....times are a-changing
Ferrari and Bridgestone defintely does not do it this time..
Michael seems to be losing his cool .. and Ralph of all people is commenting on his temper... irony of ironies...
Ra Ra Raikkonen... we are rooting for you... I am glad that he is doing very well..
I also wish that Ferrari comes up with something fast so that they at least have a saving grace..
I am glad in other respects that the rest of the gang is getting their shoot at the podium. Now the competition seems fair and square...
Blow me white blow me blue... I dont want a red no more....
