A little note to let viewers know that Mangala and I will be leaving for Vietnam on holiday on Saturday July 1st and returning on July 8th. I might not be able to attend to blog work during this time. But please keep sending your contributions and they will be published in the order they are received.
Those of you who are involved in the Mini Reunion in London on June 30th are kindly requested to send in some pictures for publication. I would appreciate if one of you can also send me a brief note about the event.
Thank you.
Lucky

ReplyDeleteI shall repeat the e-mail I sent you earlier in the day.

Lucky for all the effort put into being the " Blog Controller" so effortlessly & efficiently.
And, You Mangala for having to PUT UP with HIM and his antics.
WELL DESERVED.
Farina & Razaque.
Have an enjoyable time, Mangala and Lucky. If you are visiting Hanoi, do not miss out on Haylong Bay, where a James Bond film was made. Shoes are very cheap and I am still wearing a pair I bought about 3 tears ago.

Our dear Lucky’s finally relaxing
In a well-deserved mini break
No calls, no emails or even faxing
No one from him a grudge to take
The job of running this batch Blog
Is no joke, no walk in the park
Nor is it just a hard slog
As Editor, Lucky’s made the mark!
Which makes him, stand out in a crowd
Someone who can meet and greet
The meek the mild the quiet the loud
The way he does it, is indeed a treat!
So, let’s gather, to do our part
All batch mates from East and West
It’s not too late to make a start
To send in your effort, do your best!
Great poetry, great message!
DeleteBrilliant poetry as always. Very topical and straight from the heart.
DeleteWell said Zita! Very appropriate! I hope this wake up call ,will rekindle a few.
