Back on my feet after eight never-ending hours in a flight from Dubai, I sort of shiverred the moment I land in Jo’burg. I reckon it’s IPL fever and since I know the medicine, there is nothing to worry.
Sam drives us from airport, warning time and again that flashing money in South Africa can be fatal. I certainly was not amused at his dig at Lalit Modi.
“Do visit the Gandhi museum also, since you came from India,” he advises.
I was startled, actually never felt Devang Gandhi did anything to merit a museum!
It dawned me minutes later that Sam was talking not about the opener but of the spinner of charkha.
Cabbies have been shouldering the traditional responsibility of being a stranger’s friend, philosopher and guide in an alien city and expect Sam to pop up time in Real IPL Players’ journey.
Cabbies in an alien city can give u more than u want.. i've always been offered quite a few surprising stuff from cabbies - all worth it may I add ;-)

ReplyDeleteLOL!!
ReplyDeleterighto dude don't ever flash money here.
ReplyDeletei loved the 'spin' on gandhi tho. ;)
Devang Gandhi has been dug out of the recesses of my mind. What next a Gaekwad museum? And as both were openers, their museums will never close.
ReplyDeleteAnd yeah, my mind drifted to Sam the blogger. He sure has a lotta drive
wish I could reply separately to all of you. Since I'm hadr pressed for time and have access to net only after 9 pm local time, let's go in a bunch.
