Voice of 'Sundeep' :: Ordeal at Trichy Bus Stand ::

On the return trip of about 10 members of the group, with confirmed return tickets on Pallavan (no, it was Guruvayur Express !!).

This confirmed train tickets was done b'cause someone (Huf.. Is't me ???) from the group would only travel by train, perhaps they had forgotten those memorable college days when everyboby used to travel by bus, (PLA, NNL, via trichy etc) .. (You know, I was travelling in PLA only on that Saturday, to & from my home !!)

But unfortunately this confirmed return ticket was for 20th Feb. 2005, 00:30 hrs and we realized that if we were to travel on Sunday (actually Monday!!) 00:30 AM the ticket had to be made for 21 Feb 2005 00:30 hrs.

Thanks to KD (read Jack of all Roses) for having messed all this up to top this all he confirmed me that he had booked the ticket with the right date on it. (follower Ranjith, booked rest of the tickets and so many verifiers!!)

After doing all this the culprit (Chumma da ! Don't get tensed !) had booked a bus ticket for himself thus escaping all the ordeals standing at Trichy Bus Stand at 1:00 Am and trying to find means to reach Chennai. Hadn't he done this his plight would have been totally different.

With no other option left we boarded a ramschackle bus and somehow reached Chennai. (bus, without few windows .. but, ultra-fast and on time)

Well all in all it was a magnificient experience of machi's marriage.

Please do not read in between lines for I don't bear anything against anybody.

Also do not make the same mistake with the date when the time crosses 00:00 HRS.!!!!! (Good learning ! second time .. first one is date .. now time ?? let me see !!)

Report By 'Jay' ::

This is a short report on our mannaru group chairman's (Machi-MK) marriage on Feb. 20, 2005 @ Trichy.

The events started with traditional "Ponnu Azhaippu" on Feb 19 Evening and a spl. Pooja @ near by Temple by the couple.

Sherwani !
Originally uploaded by dreamz.

Few of our friends reached Trichy [yes, I too reached on time!] at this time and made their presence felt by Cheering MK who came in "Sherwani" ...

(Shervaani ?? sorry .. if i am wrong.. i am week or weak in english; anyway let it be "vaani")

[Buddy, I know about you da, let's keep it as 'Sherwani']

Post dinner, few of us became Nice Guys and you must have decoded the dialogues that were in air then .....

It was late night 1.00 pm/early morning 1.00 am; Chithu and me started the spl. help on "Thamboola Pai" preparation where in I was slow to open the covers and do a good job. Chithu was at his best ..... (as usual, he's GREAT na !!)

It was almost 2.30 am early morning that we got in to a 'deep' discussion with our Great 'Vacchu' & K(ar)D and by luck we finsihed the same by 3.15 am without conclusion as usual...

[Chithu : Vachuu escaped this time too !! vetti !! but one thing need to appreciate is the changes in KarD, didn't get tensed much and shared many useless things after loong time .. but as usual, there was hot discussion from Vachuu, even sent SMS to me in mid-night about the looong call of KarD .. still .. not answered ???]

At 5.30 am it was a good morning call from Raje, who was in complete formals even while travelling (machi : voon kadamai vunarchikku alave illayada ..?). At the sun rise , it was a time for us to do final make up touches for MK by painting / brushing /.... ( oops ... believe Beautification is a 6000 crore industry as per KPMG and it is toooo skin sensitive !!!!!!!)

[Chithu : Jus' 'hai' to 'Rajee', without even opening the eyes .. then, call from 'anna' .. followed immediately the entry of 'Kathir' .. funny thing .. strong hit on 'Joe', thought it was 'Sarapi' .. Sarapi escaped from Kathir in the early morning.. got ready !]

Time of Good moments :

Don't be hurry to imagine that MK finished the rituals ... It was time for me to finish breakfast... ( he he he he he...) (Dei JK, you have attended so many marriages for sooru da.. don't u have vetakam/ maanam ???) .. (thatz cool comment da machi .. Jay vetti paiya !!)

Around 8.30 MK had another round of Pooja and on return was given a Metti ...

Comments from mannarus : -- Its time for 'Metti Oli' hereafter and not any other channel.... (MK, I pity u.. you are going to miss your fav. NDTV ...)

(PS: In order to maintain the decorum of this post I have written it as NDTV. But i will not tell others that you prefer FTV !!) .. (woooveee ... What's in that ?!)

Then came the final moments of MK's long waiting .... "......Maangalyam .. Tahnthunnaane..........."

Yeah... We declared "Machi Maatikkitan" ...... (Nostalgic trip to Raje's marriage when 'Sethu' started this shouting!)


[I was busy in capuring all these nice moments .. really it was a tough job for the fotographer in the marriage functions ..]

Let us wish KARSAKTHI "All the BEST" !!

"Rajmohan J" did a good JOB of 'Maappillai Thozhan' and was at his BEST, while collecting gifts and making Machi looks beauty.

GOOD EVENT of the DAY ::

We had the 'Anbagam' kids to have a snap with MK and then they had a good lunch at the Mandapam. Machi, a spl. thanks to you for inviting them K Raj / Sasi / Ramesh : Splecial thanks to you people for the Co-Ordination.

Another GOOD EVENT of the DAY ::

Mannaars & Kids !
Originally uploaded by dreamz.

After the lunch, we (few of us) accompanied the kids to their home and we were impressed by the progress in construction work.

Spl. thanks to Ranjith and Rajmohan who made the journey wonderful for those kids..

Finest moment in Anbagam :

We were just becoming the witnesses of the good work co-ordinated from our Trichy based friends on the construction front.

I am really proud of our group doing such activity for the benefit of people in need.

[I was very much happy to be there with the kids with you all !!]

When we were travelling our "Rajee" was quick enough to realize that the Summer in Trichy is going to be very tough and these kids are going to suffer without slippers ....(on those days we really felt that it is too hot to go out...just think about these kids walking to all places without slippers... Hope you understand the difficulty .... )

'Rajee' made a quck contribution to buy slippers and I promised him that the others --who are all reading this report -- are kind enough to fund to finish the plan RAJE !! , thanks to you again.

Rajmohan & Ramesh : Advanced thanks to both of you to execute this.

So before you wind up this report, Let us soon execute what Rajee has started .
