Yet another anecdote which had me agape:
Yesterday Diksha said she's going out for a short bit, as Sav, her close friend, 'wants to go check out a bike' .
They're back in under two hours.....bike in tow. A pulsar, not a cycle mind you.
To my astonished expression.... raised eyebrows, open mouthed et al, she says:
"that's how it works on OLX ma"
Apparently the guy they bought it from is someone from the army, and he himself was taken aback. He'd put up the advertisement just that morning, and was thinking the process would take a week and that he would have the bike for the week, after which he was moving on transfer. But once Sav liked it, negotiations done, he was like "where's the nearest ATM, I'll take it now".
Honestly, for all my exposure to their generation and way of life, I still get amazed.
If we can park judgement and keep that open mind, it's a crazy fun ride with them.... even pavilion view :)
