Hammad bhai has been seen hammering the keyboard with his fists just after when we used to leave his shop at Rafeeq Complex (Champion Market)

Even though it's almost 8years ,....
But I still it all looks so fresh, internet is so weird in such a way, I was searching for something else, and I found this page(which I never knew existed) , found comments and views of some really memorable people in our lives,
Life has changed to fast in these 8 long years,may be that childishness and curiosity and creativity took a back seat, for achievement and earning.
But this thing is going to stay here forever, even when I turn 60(only if )
Our generation will look for this blog and say, you were not so boring as you look like now.

Thanks dear F1 you gave me a fresh breeze in this dusty fatigued delhi whether.
You and your masterpiece (one of the many) is going to stay there and inspire many more generations.
Thanks for making me a small part of it.
