It looked as if we'd be standing in it all day, but we got through it surprisingly quickly. ~MiriamAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9094662330941942080.post-73126757675623822172015-04-21T12:57:58.218+05:302015-04-21T12:57:58.218+05:30Hahaha this one was so awesome!

And I agree with Titli here. It is always the other queue that moves faster.Soumyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07439590494620390907noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9094662330941942080.post-382200370661832602015-04-21T12:47:48.373+05:302015-04-21T12:47:48.373+05:30Too funny Deepti.

Especially the odour as you have mentioned. It's not just the armpit - there are those who wear the same clothes more than once even in the summer.
