Dear Philip,
It is about time Vijita and I joined in
to say thank you very much to you, Duru, Sarath, Ranjini and all others who
organised the get together. It was such a good event. We have noted the
suggestions for an annual event -maybe at least in two or three years and not
five!! We were so pleased also to meet all your family!
Love and Best wishes to all
Vijita and Anula

Hiranthi and I apologise for this
very belated thank you.
The organisation was excellent, and
the warm and sincere friendship of each to each other was very evident and
tangible.
We are very blessed that we have
such a special batch,and an even more special organising committee, who have
given so much of their time and effort to make each of these events so
memorable.
May God Bless and protect you all,
and hopefully we will meet again soon, while we are still physically and
mentally able to do so.
With our sincere thanks once again,
Hiranthi and Travis.
Hi all,
As children, some of us had months of
growing excitement about the nearing of Christmas.. Then we have all the
fun on one day; opening presents, eating too much, and in later years, drinking
too much and then snoozing on the sofa.. Boxing Day was a let-down.
I presume the arranging of your daughter’s wedding (we didn’t have the
privilege of doing it) was the same. Any one who has organised any event
would have gone through an year of planning and anxiety; the day comes and then
goes in the blinking of an eye. Guests enjoy it but had not lost a bead
of sweat or an ounce of fat from anxiety. The 50th Anniversary
was no different. All of us attendees had the time of our lives, and then
went about our routine activities and daily chores. I wanted to write
immediately to each of the organisers, but alas I moved away from the arena of
fun and action, and never had the courtesy to write and congratulate and thank
the organisers. Belatedly, the chain is moving; it may be a rollercoaster.
But I now join those who have openly expressed their thanks to the
organisers. To me it was special; I had attended only one, the one we
organised in UK to mark 25. The enjoyment I had in June from meeting,
trying to recognise, then swapping stories from our past far exceeded my
expectations. Yes, the organisation was fab and of the highest order.
Turning up alone for this get together was an anxious and worrying
predicament. Watching the pictures of our colleagues, my dear wife and
many close friends, listening to the trilingual musical accompaniment was a
tear-jerker. I cherished the unimaginable friendship and support from
Bella’s friends. The get together was memorable; but for me, for a very
different reason.
So belatedly, I join the others to thank
each of the organisers for giving up their time, and working damned hard – just
for us. Though I would definitely attend the next round of festivities,
we cannot expect the same group of workers to do it again in three years, two
years or one year, just for us
Thanks guys
Sunil
