our lovely manager at the ganpati
after i jumped out and scared arielle on the balcony and she shrieked, everyone came running to see what was happening. of course i was doubled up laughing and arielle was laughing and hitting me and the manager came around, saw we were okay, and said: "you know something? you two are CRAZY!" as he smiled and shook his head ruefully at us.
it was then that we fell in love with the man.
