. Books are my first love and interest. When you're with a book, there are no limits to the imagination. I love animals and cannot bear to see them hurt. I simply love movies and I love travelling. If it were possible, then I would have seen the world by now! Cultures and traditions of the world also hold a deep interest for me and I try to absorb anything I read that is different from what I have been brought up with. I belive that life is too short to hold grudges. So no matter how much I've been hurt, I am ready to forgive. Forgetting is another issue....

Oh! That was some yummy review mate. I was slobbering all over my desk reading your drool-icious description of the pav bhaji! Keep 'em coming buddy!
are always with the customer. I do not support Orange for their shabby treatment of your complaint but I am sure there must have been a better way of dealing with it. They are right in one small aspect, it is tough to trace calls placed from a pre-paid card. You've been ripped off big time. Wha read more...

You've done an amazing job here mate! Simply brilliant! I love your language use and crisp dissection of the book! Cheers!
Read and heard so much about Toronto that i never thot there cud be an interesting revu out here but here u are with an ace revu!! Great tips and very handy. Ciao
What else can i say for a superbly-worded revu? Your command over the language is commendable. Glad to have you here on MS. Cheers!
Short and sweet is the review as well as the movie. Glad you didn't waste much time in expansive descriptions. No wastage of words here and thats what made it a good read. Might catch the movie on cable. Cheers!
I completely agree with you opinion. Your revu reminded me how much i did not enjoy the movie. More please!

This is one of the best time pass revus ive read in a long time. Keep 'em coming!
Commented on madlalya's review
revu has given me another book to add to my list of to-read books. It sounds most interesting and even more so to read about our India from a foreigners perspective. Beautiful revu Maddy!
Only you could have taken an electric toothbrush and made it into a readable revu. And an ace one at that. I am convinced. My next visit to the supermarket will have me keeping an eye out for an electric toothbrush on discount ;-) Cheers!

Too bad I cannot do more than HR this revu. A million thanks for making my day. I loved your thoughts on the Luck Chain. LOL, I can't stop laughing! OH! Is that God on the phone?
All superlatives fall short of commending your revu mate! Very well written and its clear that you're thought process is as lucid as Jacks. Cheers to you. I'm off to grab my own copy of the book. PS. Good luck!
you've been to so many places! I am jealous of your travels and your trysts with so many varied cultures! Do share them all!
