A quick re-cap & update for all of you who’ve mailed in saying you’ll come - and also for any of you who’re still thinking of coming (yes, do get a move on & mail us already!)
(01) The invite with relevant details for the party here.
(02) Directions how to get to Seijo here.
Lots of people have confirmed their attendance, so we’re looking at a bigger crowd than the last time!
I’d like to also explain the reasons why Saks & I thought it necessary to charge the Rs. 150/- entrance for anyone who might be wondering. The last meet we organized was a free entry thingie. However a bill was incurred & expenses had to be met mainly from the organisation end - though a few bloggers did help us by chipping in. For this we thank them again.
However this time we thought we’d do things more fairly. And especially since we’ve chosen a place like Seijo - where one earlier paid Rs. 500/- only to enter! and where entrées are Rs. 425/- per plate - we managed to strike a good deal with the management and get you entrance @ Rs. 150/- and thrown in a little bit of entrées too (so please don’t expect it to fill your stomachs!)
And do remember you’ll have to pay any drinks (soft/alcoholic) yourself.
And ONE LAST thing! We’re also going to be taking little collection for Dream India - funding the work they’re doing with Avinash Thapad (a little boy Sakshi found out about when her uncle was in hospital) & other similar cases. We’ll probably just pass a hat around at some point, if you’re led to you may give. Perhaps you could have one less drink & put the money towards a good cause?
But hopefully then, our blogger’s party will be more than just a fabulous fun night.
