I know that me commending the Delhi police might raise some eyebrows but then what happened last night has made me see these khaki clad men with new insight now. Here's what happened: I was on my way to work and right in front of my cab was this bike with two guys. There was a Maruti 800 that came from behind and hit the bike so hard that both the occupants fell off the bike with the bike taking a 180 degree turn bang on the middle of the road. The pillion riders helmet came off due to the impact of the jolt of the Maruti. Thankfully there werent too many cars speeding by otherwise the accident could have been more worse, even gory. The maruti driver tried to get away despite the bike driver trying to stop him. What would have become a hit and run accident was saved due to the vigilance of the PCR Van nearby. The PSR Van chased the Maruti driver for about 4 minutes and caught up with him. Now that was something not really expected what with the Police being one of the most corrupt departments in the government. But then again, with this episode I still have some faith for the Law and Order of the country. Hats off to you once again, Delhi Police! :-)
I just got back from a shoe shopping expedition. Yes, expedition because its such a pain to shop with a limited budget :-I But I managed to get a good pair from GK I, M Block Market. Its nice and strappy. Even though im not into the tie-up sandals type, I had to take it because it did look good on me! Alright I am coming to the price: was priced at Rs 1050 but managed to sweet talk the shop keeper to give it to me for Rs 900 (!!!) I should become a pro at flirting with Shopkeepers pretty soon ;-) lol!

Sometimes, I wonder what I could get away with if I was a woman.Sigh...Maybe women have similar thoughts. Well... as they say - grass is always...
Off late the Delhi Police has seriously become more vigilant n aware...than what the condition was a few years back..But then I always have my doubts wrt to the Police Dept as you have mentioned...corrupt..but its good to see them working once in a while :p
What is imp to mention the M Blk Market :(...
So, your Chritmas shopping has started !!!!
mehak: yes buddy xmas shopping started. im not trying to make u feel bad but i also picked up 2 sweaters for 500 bucks..not a bad deal...next time ur in delhi and need to go shopping, let me know :)
ivan: the same could be said for men frm a woman's perspective. I still dont have the confidence to travel alone. And i have guy friends holidaying in Afghanistan, Ladakh n Leh all alone...How envious is that? guess everything comes with a price :)
ohh go on girl...what else did ya buy....mummmmyyyy...this girlie is teasing me :p :p....with words like shopping n delhi
Ahh... And I know women who disappear into the wilderness all alone.:-)
All it takes I presume is confidence. But, confidence supported by experiences and knowlegde coupled with skills to face the unknown.
But then again, they normally have interests (the need to be a knight in shining armour;a craving for adventure) that churn out the adrenalin.
poor guys are doing a thankless job....
PSV: Im not too sure how i feel for the Police...Sometimes sympathy, sometimes Chagrin.
