Vini bell n sango

hi everyone. this is toooo thrilling. bell has finally cracked my lame-duck computer and we've managed to post...even tho comments are still eluding us!

bell leaves in an hour. the update is that vini who was nowhere in the picture as far as the so called painting workshop is concerned has emerged the winner by not only doing the maximum no of paintings but also by showing the greatest enthusiasm!

apart from painting...we have eaten out...spent long hours chatting over many cups of chai paani wine whisky etc feeling dreadful that she is actually going...wish we could ALL stay and live together.love.s.

bella n me...holiday

hey ro bell n i r together ostensibly to paint...joke...because that seems to be the only thing we don't find time for! but it is absolutely wonderful to be together ...and staying together.takes me back to icse days when we used to shift in with each other ...ostensibly to study!! that was an even bigger joke! will be in the us next month. nyc,sfo, la...will call.haven't the foggiest who is organizing the dec get together. knowing how lazy we ALL are... it might just be a good idea to just land up and hope for the best!!

Niagara Falls

We were there last week for one day. It was completely stunning. I had to share this with you all.

Hello Everyone

Its been a while since anyone has posted here. How are you all doing?
My kitchen is complete. It has been an eon....or at least feels like it!
Life has been busy with children's school, activities etc.
Uj- no news from you?
Dipu- how are things going?
Geetanjali, Arti, Abha, Sango, and all the others, please do drop a line.
Who is planning the December festivities?

Janam Din Mubarak Ho Ujwala,

Tum Jiyo Hazaron saal,
saal ke din pachaas hazaar!
Happy B'day dear Ujwala.
Hope you have a wonderful year.

Different and yet the same!

I leave these meetings feeling that I haven't caught up enough. There's so much to talk about for each of the years that have passed. Met up with Archana soon after I got in to Kolkata and requested her to round up as many as she could for tea. Went on to Bangalore and met up with Dipu, Linda and Devika Nair. In the excitement of catching up no photos were taken :( Got back to Kolkata and tea at Flury's with Archana, Sangeeta, Munmun and Oni. Getting Oni's number was serendipitous. There was a lady at Indrakshi's party who looked at me as though she knew me and I thought she was Oni. It turned out she wasnt but she'd met Oni recently and was nice enough to give me her number! Amazing!

From what I hear the LH get together went off extremely well and so did the one the boys of the '82 batch had. Ours is tentatively scheduled for Dec 20 to Dec 23, 2007. What do you guys think? We need to find the others in the next few months so that we give them enough time to plan a trip to Kolkata in December. I hear off an on that some of you have bumped into someone or the other. Please email me whatever details that you might have, telephone number, mailing address, email id etc. We need to locate the others and soon.

Happy Birthday Geetanjali
