Keshav Harry Potter... almost..

Imagine me in place of Daniel Radcliffe in the role of Harry Potter. The witches and the wizards, flying brooms, magic, Hogwarts... Can you beat that?

Well, I almost (though a few years too late) managed that last evening when I acquired the Harry Potter scar.

Here's how it happened.

Papa and I had gone to The Club last evening. Mummy had gone to meet Nani who has come to Bombay for some Puja, and hence did not accompany us.

As is our routine, we went to the play area in the back side of the club. That section has various things like slides (big ones and small ones), merry go round, swings, climbing ropes and lots more.



My favourite is the sand pit, but since we were not carrying my sand toys yesterday, we did not play in the sand.

I started off with the slides (in the pic above.. on the very left... can you see??). Showed Papa that I could now climb them on my own and go swishing down. Then went on to the merry go round, a bit of swinging and then came back to the slides.

I got on to a slide (which is a part of a larger children's setup) and stood there for a minute, showing off my balancing skills to Papa. In the same hurry, I sat down on the slide and went.. swooosh...

Unfortunately, in the hurry I went down at an angle and went and hit the next section. In the process I got the Scar..

If only the scar was not on my chin but elsewhere!!!
