A little incident that really occurred – at Taj Hotel – Something to smile about – Trust a bawa (Parsi) to do just this….
There was an old (83) very deaf, very wealthy Parsi gentleman from Hong Kong who was staying at the Taj hotel during the 26th November 2008 tragedy. At about 7.30 PM he went downstairs to the Shamiana restaurant for dinner and returned to his room at about 9.30 PM or so, after which he got into his pyjamas, took out his hearing aid and went to bed.
He awoke at about 8 AM the next morning, went into his shower and came out (still without his hearing aid!) He got ready in his nicest trousers and a good looking shirt, opened the door and stepped out, till a Indian Government Commando (Anti Terrorist Squad - ATS) caught him in the corridor, and asked him where he thought he was going.
His reply: "For breakfast!"
He was evacuated immediately.
It's Lucky to be DEAF????
