Hello,
Happy Hump Day!!
Last week was extremely busy with work with a lot of "entertainment" in multiple projects. The trend is still continuing this week as you can see that it took me till now to write.
Here the trend seems to be celebrating events much in advance. One of my northi friends borrowed a ven pattu dhoti from me. Apparently they were having a Diwali party over the weekend and he and his wife were supposed to be dressed up as south indian wedding couple. The annual Christmas party which is a huge mega event for every company is also conducted sometime in November.
Yet another Aussie word (or is it British?) that I am hearing often these days is "narky". Apparently it means sarcastic (or some similar tone). I tend to hear this more often at work when the "entertainment" gets more and more exciting. :-)
The era of what, why and how has started for Nandhitha. Recently she has discovered shadows and echoes. She gets thrilled by echoes in particular and tries it out every other time we are in the parking lot where there is a good effect. The other times she does a "manual echo" is when she doesn't want to listen to something that we ask her to do. Whatever we say gets echoed back verbatim by her and she calls it "echo".
The all smart GPS has some interesting functionality. It can read out every other street / road name in Australia, but it cannot read out the words "Metro" or "State". Whenever I have to take a highway ,say "Metro 88" it spells out "take M E T R O 88". Go figure!!
Thass all for now.
Have A Great Week!!
Chetty
