We'd got up with the alarm, gone through our chores and were ready on time. Earlier, had got up around a half past 3 to go to the rest room and consequent to it, was not able to resume my sleep and therefore, said my prayers as I usually do during such breaks. Sleep was instant after I'd finished!
Ramakrishnan, the newspaper boy was told about our programme. I didn't want the newspapers lying all over the courtyard during our absence and give ideas to people who are up to tricks! There is a house being constructed in the neighbourhood and consequently, many guys are at work. Of course, the car's absence and the locked gate are sure give aways.....can't really help that, the only saving grace being our neighbours' assurance that they'd be keeping an eye for any untoward movement!!
Had gone to fill up fuel in our Chevy around 1600 hrs and in the process, managed to get a couple of gashes on the vehicle's starboard side much to my anguish. The fault was all mine and sadly, the Chevy is ready for its next visit to the service station! I've said it a number of times and I say it again, I'm a bad driver. Period!
The angst shall be within till the repairs are done....and it's gonna take time. There's an urgent work to take on at my parents' place so that it finishes before the onset of the monsoons! The truss work would take about a week for completion but it might get delayed because of the pre-monsoon showers that have picked up over the last week.
'The Quarterdeck' has been progressively shut down for making an early morning departure tomorrow.
Tailpiece.
Election Related Cacophonics.
1. The Parties Are In A Tizzy.
After a high voter turnout during the polls in Kerala, the political parties are in a tizzy. Will it be
the LDF or the UDF that will win the maximum number of seats? Or will the BJP, finally, come
into the reckoning?
The chief minister's reaction to the pressmen's questions was surprising. Not only was he angry,
somewhere, when he was asked about the BJP making its presence felt, he said that the fight was
between the LDF and the UDF.
But the worry seems to be palpable!
2. Akshay Kumar's Interview of the PM.
The PM had accentuated his friendship with a few of the opposition leaders like Mamata Banerjee
and Ghulam Nabi Azad . He touched upon the gifts that he continues to receive from a few of
them, even now.
There has been a backlash from the Congress on the issue.
