The Duke, the Earl and the Baron

This team is hot! Qualifying for Landmark Mumbai after like 3 attempts, they won! They were rather surprised by it. Shubhankar ( The Baron )recalls the almost divine joy with which he released the inordinate pressure on his urinary bladder during the last round. "I knew we'd win when some other team got an answer correct and so I let him go", said a beaming Abhinav ( The Earl )

Srinath, The Duke, was wildly excited and apparently ran home to have dinner with "my folks". He ran away with the trophy. The other two didnt even get to see their beaming reflections in it.

The smiling gentleman is The Earl and the man on the top right is the leader of the team, The Duke. This was at the Mahaquizzer on 29th May, 2011 at Landmark bookstore in Mumbai. Where then was their third member, The Baron? Its not that he's shy and doesn't like smiling for the camera. It was so hot the sweata nd therubbery material sort of coagulated and the helmet refsed to come off. Finally after reaching Mount Abu, Shubhankar was able to finally scrath that horrendous itch at the back of his head. That's him posing true to his philosophy, "A life on two wheel is twice lived."
