Lee Wedding : Part III
The agenda for the 3-day wedding trip was like this:
1. Saturday -> roam around, go places, go for movie
(this was successfully completed)
2. Sunday -> Go for Geo's engagment. Then to Lee's house to analyse and comment on the wedding arrangements.
3. Monday -> Attend the grand wedding of the Lee of the...
Everything seemed to be going fit and smooth, until a phone call from Geo, late in the evening on Saturday.. We were in car, just left Kumarakom, for a 15-minute 15km nailbiting drive... We have a movie to catch, you see !!
Geo sounded very happy, and said "Thanks for blessing the engagement with your absence". I was sure he was kidding.. I replied,
"Haha.. good joke.. How are the preparations going on ? What time are you ppl leaving for the bride's place tomorrow?"
It dint take long, to get the 'gyaan' that the engagement is already over !
And as against the common (well, not so common...) belief that the engagement was on Sunday, it turned out that the engagement is already over !! It was today - Saturday !!!!
How could we miss the date ?!
This calls for a detailed investigation.
Gmail should be included as a party - they were the official communication partner
(read "the invitation card was sent thru gmail" )
But upon a re-check, it turns out that gmail is good. The date is printed properly :-s
Well, not much of discussions and arguments followed, coz very soon, we found ourselves staring dumb at the huge white screen in front of us.. Meera Jasmine....
:-)
[ Tea to energize a hi-speed drive.. 15km in 15mins, thru traffic! ]

Dai - itheppa samfavichu? And how did you manage to post some photos from Geo Wedding?
Hilarious!! Especially Vimal's House incidents :)) Sand told me most of the story (including all the Pjs of Vimals mom!)...but its always nice to read it thru rat's notes too...lolz... "Satyamaanu...Vimal eppozhum inganeya....mindukayeeeeeeeeeee illa.."... :-S
Btw, just being curious.. will the subject line match the content only in Part IV? Is thr one coming up soon???
Dipu, What we missed was Geo's engagement. We did attend his wedding the following week.. Hope that clears the dilemma !
@Soo, yeah.. Vimal's house-visit was a truly memorable experience :-D
As for the subjectLine-content match-mismatch, Sand would be able to advise you.. coz he knows better, how much and how far will the subject of any mail or topic cling on to what is being discussed :-D
Of course the next part will be online soon... No need to keep watching.. it'll strain your eyes!
