In continuation with my previous post about the promising weekend, here is a recount of the weekend, which exceeded all the expectations I had set, by a million light years!
It all started with Noobie and I going for the F1 on Friday. Those were the special passes (Paddock Club) given out to us, only for that day. It was a special privilege to be amongst the “who’s who” in Singapore. The treatment gives to us was princely! Not to mention that the place where we were sitting was right above the “Pit stop” – It was actually the best possible place to be seated in F1.
Here are some pics… All the pics have been taken from above the pit stop!

The Renault Team


And here it goes… zipping by…



And finally the moment we had been waiting for… The Force India car!! It was a delight beyond imagination watching the tricolor painted across the car!!

As soon as the F1 thing was over, I realised I did not have a lot of resilience to LOUD noise!! When these cars zip by next to you, your ears hurt like they never had!! Finally better sense prevailed and I used ear buds to protect the vulnerable duo! After that, it was a party time!
After rushing off from the F1 area, we went for Dandiya.. it was good fun… even though we were all tired, we danced our hearts away.. I still have blisters in my feet from that evening!!
Saturday was India-Pak match, which was a hugeeeeeeeeee let down! Anyways, we had the whole junta over at our place.. so, it was a great evening, nonetheless!!
Sunday was marked by Whats your Rashee? And well you know, how that turned out!!
My husband is glad that the race is over because now the roads will be open and he can get to office faster…
Hey Sraboney, Welcome to my blog!
Hahahaha does he work around Raffles place/Suntec? That area was pretty much all blocked! Even the bus routes had changed…
pah… sraboney beat me again today…
I know why!! Now that you have been selected for RCB na, some celebrity you have become
Lol!!!!
Just kidding
you better be kidding… I am not a celebrity…
I AM A SUPERSTAR !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Gosh!!!!! Look at you!! I wish we had all known this earlier
I am sure by the time you come back from meeting Kumble, you will have a hugeeeeeeeeee crown on your head
he he he…
Modesty has always been my strong point…
by the way nice post… but I no likes F1 Racing at all… !! and you said the movie was bad too… thank god you saved my money… !!!
and Sigh.. only if India could have put one across the neighbours in crcicket… today we are totally relying on them to beat the aussies… sigh…
Lolz!!!
I swear!!! Its so sad… we have to rely on our neighbours now to be able to make it through to the next round!
Really bad state of affairs
Wow! U have had a gala time girl
No pics of the dandia?
R the tender feet feeling any better nw
Lol! Thanks girl!
There are some pics of dandiya… but they were taken when people were dancing, so it is extremely difficult to make out anything in the pic
Its just moving images!
Getting a little better, thank you very much
India – Pak match was a big let down indeed … and so was Whats ur Rashee …. ( now don’t look at me like that … I never watched this movie … but from what I heard , though it was not in the same class as past herman – priyanka thrillers , still it was worth trying out your resilience ….
Yeah man! And today, Pakistan looks like it is trying to loose
They are playing so damn bad
2 runs from 2 balls
The singles were there for granted …. But fate was not on India’s side in this competition !!!
I agree Harsh
wow! lucky bug!
Though I am not at all a follower of F1 but I am sure for an avid follower like Nobbie and you lately, it must have been awesome!
)
Dandiya must have reminded you a very very memorable HK dandiya
Saturday was dedicated to cricket @ our end too…
All in all a lovely post!
Thanks girl! Even Noobie and I are not really fans. We just barely knew who Schumacher was
Yes, yes it did!
Ohh!! It was awesomeeeee!!
Thanks for remembering… Muaaaahhhhhhhhhh
Wow, that’s so awesome!
Thanks
Fabulous weekend and pictures. Dandiya in Singapore!
Thanks girl!
It was rocking!!
Aha! so u had fun!! I don’t think I can ever enjoy F1
And yes Indo Pak match was a huge let down!!!
Oh trust me Smita! If you had been there, you would have changed your opinion… The mere sound of a car zipping by, sparks flyin… the adrenaline rush!!! Aaah!! You have to be there just once to fall in love with it
And yes, it was
