Had gotten up early, around a quarter to 6, so that my little Maman could have his early morning starter, a cuppa black tea!
Chinnu, a niece of mine married Rajesh, from Guruvayur, at Thiruvananthapuram on the 20th. Actually it was the culmination of a love affair, spread over four years. It was their reception out here, today, in one of the auditoriums.
Towards attending it a contingent of twenty people had arrived this morning and out of them, Maman, Ammayi and Chambu had fetched up at 'The Quarterdeck' by 6. My younger Maman, had reached here yesterday afternoon. By a half past 11, we'd dorned our Sunday best and proceeded to the auditorium. Meeting people, especially relatives, has always been looked forward to and I was seeing my Ammayi's folks for the first time, together! Chinnu is her younger sister's daughter.
The ceremony and the lunch got over by a half past 2 and we returned for a short siesta. The walk in the evening was nice and then, Ammayi and Chambu were, dropped at the railway station. The entire team that had arrived to attend the reception were there except for Maman. He'd, instead, come along with me to see them off to Thiruvananthapuram.
Tailpiece.
Except for the interaction with a section of the family, there was nothing fruitful that was accomplished!
