I know this is too close to the weekend, but could not finalize before.

Planning to go to Bangalore this weekend. Any chance we can make a small get-together on Saturday?

Contacted the veterans Charan (read: Charan Uncle) and Jeba (Uncle Jeba), both will be there. Trying to contact others in Blore.

I am staying at a place near to Jalahalli West Google Map Link

Any place not very far from there is ok.

What do you think?

Ah no, we all missed it! :(

Was planned in the evening and all of a sudden I started enjoying the Bangalore traffic :) Reached back Jalahalli at 09:00 night. Called all again thinking we can make it in Mantri Mall or any other place, but I think it was too late for them. None of the members were ready, so had to drop the plan. FAIL ..

Will sure plan it in advance next time, like exact time, location etc. Planning to come again in a few months. Will keep you updated.

Thank you all and sorry for the trouble.
