Hi Friends and those who would be attending the forthcoming 23 Mar-Friday-Mamzar Get together; the following (an excerpt from memoirs of the last year) would serve as a testimony of what we can share :

Saw the pics from Bharat Bhai and wow...all those memories of the wonderful noon last Friday came rushing back. What was amazing is that although we were almost complete strangers (my wife, daughter and I were to the entire group) - yet every single member made us feel at home. Genuine smiles, sincere interest in sharing ideas and seeking if the app process is going fine.
There was strength in this union - as can be found when one is in a 'secured safe environment'.
Thanks to deputy - Mr Vice President Biju and lots enthusiasts who did much more than lip service. Actual action - getting refreshments, running around and ensuring that everyone is well looked after, including the kids and wives. Personally going around and 'adopting' new members in...I can just go on.
When all or any of this is done with no self centred end, then it makes it magic. Given today's day and age where one hardly pauses to spend a thought and help someone else.
Well done ALL UAE 2 Canada Members. Hats off to you, thank you.
Best regards and warm wishes,
Nav

Thanks Bharat for your picasa gallery, and thanks Biju for forwarding the picasa link to all. Great pics of our 'Canada family' as Biju rightly put it.
Like Navin said, hats off to the selfless souls of our group (Biju & Co.) who have done a lot to create and maintain this wonderful group.
Hopefully, sometime in a year or so, we will have a similar get together on Canadian soil. Now, that would be a party!
Cheers
Mahesh
Dear All,
Thanks to you all friends, to make the meet a grand success! It is a wonderful feel to know of the Camaraderie experienced by the (most welcome) debutants even. Well, even myself, (a newcomer not very long ago) was open-heartedly welcomed by everyone.
Let this be an infinite chain down scores of years to come; becoz the Canadian Dream will be chased by many generations to come, it seems. Let us pass our info, experience, knowledge and share our anxieties, doubts.......and let us celebrate in our guys' crossing a hurdle. Now, I can go on and on.......!
Let the Group continue to be of mutual help at any juncture even after reaching and settling in CANADA like our exemplary forerunners--Captain Qorax, Raj Bhai-explorer101, Sid, Naini Sahib and many others who are now more than a family.
Let this tradition continue at both ends and may we all do our own bit of good for everyone's welfare and benefit.
Best Wishes,
Bestpal (Bharat)
