We met at Srini's house at saturday night for a small get together. After having Pizzas and "Cranberry juice mix with honey" we wanted to have a coffee. Night 12'o clock - all options from Hosur to Mysore were discussed. And finally we decided to fly to Leela Palace - Barista place. There were 4 bullets but what chance they have when my Ferrari is there. We trouble shooted through outer ring road service roads and from Bellandur took some strange curvy small roads with lot of gutters to reach Wind tunnel.
Cops were waiting for us after we passed HP office - But I was totally at my inner peace... Cops asked in kannada, but i will give its english translation as i dont remember exact kannada:
Cops: where are u going ?
Me: Windtunnel
Mani: for Coffee
I gave my driving license and other car papers
Cops: where are you going ?
Me: HP office
Mani: for coffee
I gave my HP ID card...
Cops: where are you going ?
Me: Whitefield
Mani: for coffee
Cops wondering, asked me: Are you drunk ?
Me: No sir, coming from HP office
They allowed us to go , probably because of respect to my Ferrari's age. Even KL registration doesnt matter. We anyway are the good guys.
There were some confusions in taking a right turn at Leela palace. I took couple of U turns and lefts and rights to get into the side road of Leela palace. Dont remember exactly what happened.
And finally parked near to the "No Parking" board. Get down and srini, anand hurried for the coffee. Chetan was waiting there. Starting walking I realized that I locked the car with key inside. DOOMED. We started removing everything near the windows of the car to open it. And now Police again - a police bike came and they seemed to be very happy to find five car thieves. But somehow they believed us seeing the car key inside. They asked us to break the window, but we didnt as duplicate keys were in my house.
And after having coffee in leela palace at 1am went to pick up the keys ( thanks to chetan and his bike).. 1 am in Bangalore winter was shivering.. Entered the house at night as a thief without waking up anybody.. and somehow found the duplicate key. On the way also we were stopped by police ( but did let us go even without asking for papers ).
Now with two keys in my ferrari we ventured through the difficult roads near EGL to escape police ( my 150cc Ferrari car is suitable for race courses and not for EGL terrains). After reaching Srini's home drank 1 litre apple juice and slept. Morning had plans to go to Shivaji nagar and eat biriyani.. ( there is a place where u get biriyani from 5.30am to 6.30am). That didnt happen. But even without that saturday night was colurful for me and Ferrari and others. And now sunday I have fever...
Notes 1 - Last time I forgot car keys inside was in chennai and that time it was worse - the ignition was ON at that time. So certainly I have improvements :)
Notes 2 - All names have been changed to fake names for providing privacy :)
