Prakat Posted February 17, 2012 Posted February 17, 2012 Just found out that Sehwag's three Highest scores are 119 (T20s), 219 (ODIs) and 319 (Tests). :hmmm: Knew and read about the ODI and Test scores in a few places right after 219, but was surprised to see the T20 HS.

Mariyam Posted February 24, 2012 Posted February 24, 2012 The signal at the Heera Panna junction always takes a long time to clear. More so for the Southward bound traffic. So I was waiting at the signal, with not much to do, glancing through the Mumbai Mirror and I saw this hawker who was selling roses. I thought I'd buy a rose and called him over. He had various varieties and the large, and I thought I'd take a multiflora. He quoted Rs 25 for it, which was way above the what I expected the price to be. I looked around in my purse and I didn't have exact change. The kid said he had been doing business all day so he's got change. I hand the kid a note of 500 Rs. The moment I did that, he gave a very sly grin and ran away with the money. I had no option but to remain seated in my car as I couldn't leave the car unattended at a signal. In less than 20 seconds after this incident the signal turned green. He wasn't a scamster and was a bonafide rose seller. He had many flowers/roses on him. Also, I was the one who indicated that I wanted a rose. Generally, the traffic signal hawkers are very aggressive with their marketing and keep pestering you to buy stuff from them knocking on you windows till the signal turns green. ???

In those circumstances I generally ask hawkers to hand me the change first before handing them the high(er) value currency note. Why did you not drive back around to see if he was around? :hmmm:
gaurav92 Posted February 24, 2012 Posted February 24, 2012 ^The traffic wouldn't have allowed her to move I guess. The hawker probably would have crossed on the other side leaving no chance of getting caught.

Why did you not drive back around to see if he was around? :hmmm: I was on my way to a dinner. The signal I mentioned doesn't have a U turn from the lane I was in. I'd have to go ahead for nearly 2 more signals and then take a U turn. Then take a U turn again to come back on the earlier road. :(( If I did that I would be very late and miss out on the gossip. I don't know how to link stuff from google maps here. In the search bar type , Heera Panna Haji Ali junction, Mumbai. You'll get a good idea of the road that I'm talking about. my dooor ki maami said they get flowers cemetery se :fear: :(( That guy didn't give me the flower even.
f.b.m Posted February 25, 2012 Posted February 25, 2012 :(( That guy didn't give me the flower even. Wow now this is depressing :/ Should have gone back and run him over. Would've made for good gossip material and worth the wait.
f.b.m Posted February 25, 2012 Posted February 25, 2012 While I'm at it in the random thoughts thread I'll pose the eternal question: Why are all TV programs so terrible that I'm forced to watch old CB series matches? [ame= TV Ruined Your Life S1E2P1 - YouTube[/ame]
