1) Cousin is getting married today at Madras,the last one of our gen to get int to wedlock.We couldn't make as it is not 1 year since dad passed away!She was 1 year during my marriage. Goes to show gap those days between first and last child (even in my case 12 years)......Gayathri is representing the family.
2) This week marks the 25th Wedding day for my sister Gayathri, I was going through old pictures, got this!! She was caretaker for Radhu at Karaikudi 1992, and dad would beat her in trademark towel bashing (Roll towel and smash) if Radhu cries even a bit!! hahahhah!!!! என்ன திண்டாட்டம் திண்டாடி இருக்கார் அப்பா!! ஹஹஹஹ்ஹ்ஹஹ்!
3) I saw this photo in Sky news of baby Charlotte kissing Louis the new born prince, Nothing like the elder sister brother!! Radhu was so possessive of her brother!! hahahhah!!!
This week Jet Airways completes 25 years of Flying in India. I remember my first flight in 1995 Hyderabad to Bombay ( I was living Ankleshwar incidentally May 1993 was my first flight so 25 years of flying). They set very high standards for flying and taking Jet flight domestic or international was pleasure to look forward. The workmen agitation ( I think 2005 or so) dented its image and it never got back the elite image. Even last week, in my 9W 477, toilet didn't function at ground!! India that is problem reaching top is easy but staying there is tough. Still great airliner to fly.
I am so glad the Russians have taken to streets denouncing Thug Putin, this on 200th birth Anniversary of Karl Max. I wish them success and dethrone that Crook. Tall order but not impossible. I loathe communism and it has always brought evil and trouble. In a sense China denounced and moved on ( Not to the extent of BJP they worse)
I am not surprised that Trump organisation is engaged in rampant corrupt practises in INDIA! Lodha with whom Trump Inc is associated has all cases dropped. They prime sponsor to BJP and Goon Modi.
“In India or other countries,” Painter said, “it seems to give the impression that if you do favors for the Trump business, you get favors from the U.S. government.”
