so far away
Hello world !!!
Long time since I updated my blog.
Been caught up with work lately.
Hey Xmas is just a month away.
This year has waltzed past so soon.
Hoping to take leave for the Xmas week uptill new year.
Lotsa old friends visiting my hometown for Xmas,
will be good to catch up with them.
Strange to think how close we used to be at one time;
now Life has taken us so far away from each other at different places.
But as they say - "Nothing is parmanent... Change is emminent..."
Have a nice week folks !!!
Cheers !!!

Tarroti
Hello World !!!
Well yesterday's match b/w Bahrain and Trinidad
was ordinary to say the least. It did'nt live upto
my expectations. The football played was pathetic,
even school boys can play wit hmore imagination.
The biggest surprise result for me was The Aussies
beating Uruguay on penalties. Guus Hiddink their coach
is one lucky guy I think and will surely take them places in the World Cup
teh way he did with South Korea in the last World cup.
Nothing much happening nowadays.
Two of my Tarroti (means Sailor in Konkani) friends
have landed - looking forward to meeting them sometime soon.
But have to travel t o Bombay or Goa.
Bombay - Goa trips can leave a hole in thr pocket though.
Hoping to get them down to Bangalore.
Cheers !!!

World cup Play-off's
Hello world !!!
The Oktober fest last week-end was a damp squib.
I could'nt go as I was down with Viral fever.
Coming up today are World cup Play-off's.
The fate of 5 nations hangs in balance.
The remaining spots have been booked.
Spain vs Slovakia -
Spain take a 5-1 lead into this one.
Looks like Spain have made it to the WC.
Switzerland vs Turkey -
Although the Swiss lead 2-0 from home,
expect a tough explosive match -
the Turks are always dangerous @ home.
Czech Rep. vs Norway -
The Czechs carry a 1-0 advantage at home.
Expect them to wrap this one at home.
Bahrain vs Trinidad & Tobago
1-1 was the verdict in first leg.
Return leg should be exciting,
will be catching this one live tonite @ 9pm.
Both teams will be first time to qualify
and the smallest in terms of population to do so.
Austalia vs Uruguay
Mouth watering clash.
Uruguay take a 1-0 advantage to Australia.
The Aussies have not qualified since 1974.
They were knocked out by the same opposition
in the last world cup qualifiers too.
Can the yexact revenge ???
Have fun !!! Cheers !!!
