After coming from OZ, I thought the traffic was bad...now its worse.. there is no fun at all driving on roads in Pune or Mumbai. Always bumper to bumper! ...A decent patch would be somewhere out of the city and that too late nights may be!<BR/>But yeah...some things, like kharcha pani are so true... Meatpie and beer! that is so Aussie! Talking abt tucker,I am hungry....so better get offline;)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02197661736964905413noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8907234735918034400.post-6507566970953595042007-05-09T19:29:00.000+05:302007-05-09T19:29:00.000+05:30@ Amit MandhreYeah right, How did I miss that one!...@ Amit Mandhre<BR/>Yeah right, How did I miss that one!..there are no parking spaces in Pune these days. I went to MG road the other day and circled it twice to find a legal spot!<BR/>..talking about 747 in the middle of the road! I fell of my chair reading that dude!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02197661736964905413noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8907234735918034400.post-67548020117076653272007-05-09T17:45:00.000+05:302007-05-09T17:45:00.000+05:30Rohan, a very generalised, sterotyped post. Not al...Rohan, a very generalised, sterotyped post. Not all places in India are horrendous to drive. <BR/>But, nonetheless, Driving in all those conditions is sooooo much fun!!! I love it. With a small 'Swift(y)' car like yours, you can make driving so much fun in Bombay or in Pune. <BR/>After driving in Oz, and gettin my license suspended for speeding, I would have Bombay driving conditions any time dude. Maamu, naya gadi hai, chod do na. And u know what that booklet license we got, is only to slip in a 50 totally discreetly! Imagine that here (in OZ). Mate, here's 10 bucks, go treat urself to a meatpie and a beer!(chai pani). <BR/>Parking wise, been to a movie in Bombay these days?? at onna those 'shopping malls'. Parking's such a bitch. Rs. 30 - Rs. 40 later!! <BR/>My advice: Keep the metallica pumping (wherever I may roam, Enter Sandman, gr8 driving tracks) and just keep honking dude!Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08924261281352705821noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8907234735918034400.post-35030738979148882042007-05-07T01:15:00.000+05:302007-05-07T01:15:00.000+05:30Parking is no headache in India.

You can park almost anywhere where there is free space and what’s more parking is free of cost!!</I><BR/><BR/>Dont quite go generalising on that one yet. You can park almost anywhere <B> IF </B> you're lucky enough to find an empty parking spot. We all know buggers are charging for parking on most major streets now. <BR/>While you're talking of UFO's I'm sure you must've read abt the 747 parked right in the middle of the road in Mumbai. a sight to savour, I'm sure =))<BR/>All said and done driving in Pune is fun (esp 2 wheelers) and I quite enjoyed it while I did that last December. Now driving cars is a whole different monster ;) No use complaining though, when in Rome do as the Romans do!<BR/><BR/>PS: gosh, I think such a long comment serves some justice to such a long post LOLAmithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00375951510584183465noreply@blogger.com
