Older and wiser! Posted on March 7, 2005 It was after ages that I decided to call everyone home on my birthday. Usually, it’s a quiet dinner with a handful of friends, but this time I decided to have a bit of a blast. A big thank you to everyone who came home and made Saturday a very special day for me including Meghna, Vasu, Venkat, Spidey, Madhu, Arun, Joshi, Janani, Nanjappa, Vaish, Shankar & Usha, Ganesh & Vrinda, Rocky, Bijoy and another handful of family members. I even asked everyone to dress in red, and almost everyone obliged – including Bijoy who carried a red handkerchief and Nanjappa who sat through the whole evening with a red rose in his hands! And all those who called from wherever they were – my dearest pals Mohana & Rup, Rinku, Rukhshana & MM, Mona, Lynn and Albert, Kaushal and my sister. It was a nice change to the restaurant routine, except for the excess food that was cooked! I think I shall do this again – in about 5 years time!

But it’s birthday cake, we point out….

Scary airline experiences Posted on November 13, 2007November 13, 2007 I’ll start with a story that actually ended well but I missed a few heartbeats in the beginning. On my return from Bhutan, I had a return flight from Bagdogra to Calcutta at 2.40 pm in the afternoon. When I reached the airport around 12.10 pm (early fortunately, I was… Share this: Share on Facebook (Opens in new window) Facebook Share on Reddit (Opens in new window) Reddit Share on X (Opens in new window) X Share on Pinterest (Opens in new window) Pinterest Email a link to a friend (Opens in new window) Email Share on Tumblr (Opens in new window) Tumblr Print (Opens in new window) Print Read More
New look! Posted on September 29, 2009 It’s time for a new look and feel to my blog! And also time to upgrade my WordPress – I still had an ancient version installed which does not automatically upgrade when a new one is released.
