maidenfreak, that was really funny. thanx for sharing with us.see at least u,thapap,Moneyminded,uff and timetraveller were bold enough to share your stories.thanx guys. k ho, noone else had any day like ours? let me put one of mine i think 2 months ago, we had a heavy snowfall. i had to go to work and the snow had piled up on the subways.i had slip resistant boots on. at one station. i had to transfer to another train becoz of some problem. i saw everyone going down the stairs carefully. i was getting late and here they are clinging to the siderails and taking each step so slowly as if they were walking on the moon.deciding to go ahead(since i had my slip resistant boots on) i stepped on the stairs and i heard a shriek which was actuallly me and the next thing i know i'm down at the bottom of the staircase.golly, now isn't that humiliating? i got up somehow .thanx to my heavy outfit, i didn't l get any injury. the hurting part was noone even offered help.they were just staring at me as if an alien just came out of the flying saucer. i really missed my nepali people there,had they been there ,they'd have definitely helped.
