How I beat the Lockdown blues in Bangalore ( Wave 1 Lockdown 1 – March to July 2020 – unlock -1 , 2 , 3 till Dec 2010 ) and wave 2 Lockdown 2 ( April to May 2021 )
First episode of Lockdown Car-o-bar
Today’s Car-o-bar experiment
- Packed 2 beer cans. in a cloth bag ( used for shopping vegetables) and drove. to a place near to my house
- Parked near a fish fry cart 🛒
- Ordered 2 mackerel and 2 pompfret fry
- 2 KF can and 4 hot hot fish fry inside the car. + radio indigo
- All done in 45 minutes
- Now sleeping
- Feeling like a local Reddy builder minus the BMW or Toyota Fortuner
- Total expense – 2 KF bear – 250 plus fish fry – 350
- Total 600 rupees; less than 1 hour ; 8–10 hours of sound sleep
- Required – keep a small tissue box , a repurposed 2 liter Cole bottle filled with water
Another way to enjoy the few road of Bangalore during lockdown and not get caught by police
Take 1 or 1 medical file of your family members ( we have 4 separate thick folder of every test report / prescription etc. foe 4 of us ) . Go out for a drive and if stopped by the police , say with broker Kannada – sir urgent medicine- not getting bear my house .
Most cases the cops will let u go .
