THE EL GILL SHOW! March 2012 Get together in Delhi Mech 71 turned out in copious quantities for this meet - from lands near and far, from beneath rocks and from within hollows of dead trees. As Gadbad wryly put it “itni attendance to G D Narang ke TM lecture mein nahin hoti thi. . . . “ So how does one thank Gill and NK for giving us one huge event and a heckuva great time? I guess by simply asking – “Doston, mazaa aa gayaa – so when’s the next do?” 7:30 pm – Monday March 12: Convener NK and cohorts await host and Chief Guest El Gill’s arrival at the ornate entrance of the Air Force Club. The guys on the right – R K Saxena and Guvrus Sarma – were attending a Mech 71 do after quite a while – Guvrus had specially flown in for the event – way to go, champ! 8 pm Surprise Package! Nirmal Singh – pride of New Jersey –– lands up quite out of the blue . . . bravo, boyo – yeh hui na baat! Followed shortly thereafter by the dapper Gill and there was Subhash Kataria, last seen at the 1995 Silver
