Our 'team' functioned well for about 17 years. Then it stuttered as the quality of that hotel suffered. We would go monthly once before we went to office on plan and we paid by rotation. There was a unique feature in this 'team' when it was formed. The four of us: I was in my 20s, my next senior was in his 30s. While the two other seniors were in their 40s and 50s. Our plan was executed less frequently after the senior most retired on completing 60. Just last month, after a break of many years - by now the man who was in his 40s had retired - we planned to travel to Bangalore to have breakfast and it was a 3-hour journey. Here we are, in one of its old reputed hotels, tickling our taste buds. A bit disappointing, the quality here too - it appears (it was my first visit there), has suffered. We spent a couple of hours and returned after visiting a famous Botanical Garden (a couple of pix posted in PF). Now, the age group we belong has moved by 20s. The senior most is in his 70s!
