Hi Vishwa Aiya

It's great to hear from you. I know, we should all make the effort to stay in touch. Time flies and people grow up, marry, have babies, die; etc, its sometimes hard to keep up!! Thanks for all the lovely news. yes I hope Eva punch does buy a DVD at the duty free, so we can all watch the trip.

I'm writing with a message, first of all. Eva Punch reached home safe and sound this morning, and she said she will call you tomorrow (Thursday) morning. Which will probably be Wed night for you, no? I'm getting confused with the time zones.

Are you on Facebook? I tried to find you, I hope I haven't sent a request to a total stranger!! If you are, do join my happy band of friends and I will upload pictures of last year's cousins reunion. There are some great and memorable ones. I find FB is best for photos -- i'm too old to Poke, Throw Sheep and other arcane things you can do on it!!

I've had a day of report writing and there's more for tomorrow. I have editing and restructuring left to do and my eyes are too tired to bother any more!! So I'm emailing instead.

Loka (Namaya) is due here on the 24th of December for a month or so. Shayari is 12 now and quite a young lady. We're all waiting till they come.

Mark has gone off to play squash with one of my friends. He's here from Trinco for a week. He has boundless energy unlike me -- I had a game yesterday and that was more than enough for the rest of the week.

Will go now. Will be in touch again soon.

lots of love
