Party ?

Posted on July 19, 2008. Filed under: humour | Tags: Chennai, Funny, Rickshaw |

It was a bright sunny morning, like the 364 out of 365 other sunny mornings in Chennai. It was the nice and warm

month of June in Chennai (for the people who dont know about chennai, this is the best month to come here to

appreciate the hardships in climate one can go through). We had just moved to Chennai after our marriage, and were

yet to get our car here. So the nice little walk till you find a “Superstar” Rickshaw wala is a the daily routine.
Our marriage was new and every morning walk in the heat did not feel much as we were still quite lost.

After a couple of rick guys showed us that we are the least imp people on mother earth, we finally got one to stop.

“Spencer plaza signal, right turn polama, Indian express terema ?” (These 3 phrases explained where we have to go).

If you dont understand Tamil, i was not swearing… “Tere ma” means “Do you know”. The same thing in Delhi can get

me killed.

After showing us that he does not understand, he finally looked at both of us and said
“Party”
I was puzzled, I explained the same thing all over again. He looked at my wife, and then me and smiled and said

“Party Sir, Party”

This started getting on my nerves. Now a lot of people in our offices were asking us for a party, and here we have

another one. I asked my wife “How does he know we are newly married ?”
She was more perplexed than I was. I looked back the Rick guy and raised my voice “Why are asking for Party? Why

should we give you Party ?” . He said he wont come for anything below that.

Bang ! there was the eternal truth… He would not come for thearty, but was ok if we gave him Party.

We excused ourselves from the Party, and started looking for the next rick, after having a good laugh offcourse.
