Hark Back At An Old Post

It was a long time ago

But I can (sort of) do the backstroke. Not well. Not in a coherent manner. Maybe I will get there! And I definitely am where I intended to with the whole backstroke statement back in 2007.

And I climbed a tree - in Germany - in front of a most statuesque looking palace, no less.

We played soccer this year. I wore my ankle braces. I did not die. I did not touch the ball much, but it was a match! It was fun! And then I played another game after just because we all had so much energy. I can play again next year!

no beedis yet. no purple autos yet (now even the Mumbai autos are back to their boring black anyway).

  7. Bannu! Of course you would have!!
    Dipali, yeah, likewise. I float and I flap and then slowly sink.
    Pipa, that one looks especially scary (Oryza near Boat Club). You must tell me all about it.
