Yeh Hai Bombay Meri Jaan – 2

Bombay Gangout – Part 2
After the Breakfast.
After having amicably negotiated the breakfast time, the gang members descended again to the secret basement chambers, to start the day’s proceedings in earnest. I will have to now write a little bit more about Bombay syndicate members, as we were getting more and more familiar with every passing minute.

From the very early childhood, probably the deepest interest that I have is gathering and storing away in memory – facts, curious info, peculiar data, and a plethora of such interesting information that I would use (still use 🙂 ) to make interesting conversations and, ahem, impressing others :). In short, I have been a General Knowledge (GK) buff since I was toddler. In my class, I was known as the best and the worst – always scored the highest, mostly perfect scores, in the GK papers, and always, without fail, scored the lowest in art and painting. (The art teachers were generous; they would give me just enough not to spoil my averages.)
