The return of 'Siberian Tiger' for Arun's birthday drinks!

06 Oct 2008

Arun had his birthday drinks on Saturday 4 October at the Beauchamp in Knightsbridge. Tony Beard did his utmost to keep Kash (a non-alcoholic) entertained with his amusing stories about the Simpsons (both Homer & Jessica).

The highlight of the evening was undoubtedly the return of Dinesh 'The Siberian Tiger' from his misadventures across Siberia and Mongolia. Centuries ago the trail was used by Genghis Khan, causing havoc amongst maidens of Siberia. Historians called Genghis Khan and his quest to conquer the west as ‘STORM FROM THE EAST’; one wonders whether Dinesh’s journey to conquer all things Siberian may become Siberian folklore in the future (BREEZE FROM THE WEST ?).

The evening ended at Mamilanji, a venue for many KCCC gatherings this season, with a ‘double magnum’ of Vodka. Arun conveys a special thanks to everyone who attended the evening on such short notice, and for the many wonderful messages sent by those who couldn’t be there on the night due to prior commitments.
