When Shukla-ji writes, why would not one give it a read?
Delightful, to say the least.
And why would I remember this specific trip of yours? I had a GAU trip 04-05 Aug when I sent you WhatsApp messages to the effect that I would not make it to a quick meeting with you owing to time-related constraints. And you had written that you had a BLR trip lined up. The second interesting part was that I had done DEL-CCU-IXS-CCU-DEL a few days back (27-28 29 Jul), and am a bit familiar with the routings (and delays!). Yes, I was on a delayed VT-SCB as well. The AI 753/4 rotation.
Typical Shukla-ji sentences, ``the horses in my head started to canter''.``...not the Cinderalla types''. ``where its base, and heart, lay.''. ``unassuming cookies''. Delightful pictures of the river and its meanders!
Yes Sir, please do write. We miss your regular TRs!
Cheers, Sumantra.

Did you land on R19 or L19 ( main runway north side)? Location of VOR and mosque seems to indicate it was L19! In any case it was a good TR.
