During the same timeline, my dad and mom (carrying my little sister) were driving around Kuwait with the 3 year-old menacing their lives, unaware of the fact that Saddam Hussein was actually hatching a plan that would eventually, in two or three months, put them back in India with nothing in their hands as liquid cash.

I am currently back in Kerala, after working 7 years in the UAE (covering all emirates, leaving only Al Ain left to see; I know Al Ain is counted as AUH in the number of Emirates). By the way, where did you live in SHJ? And also the famous question “Naatil Evidaa ?? ”

How is dad doing now ?

I don’t have your email so reaching out here. If there is any remote chance of having a glance of you in london on 13th evening (travelling from cornwall) or 14th Sept (at night we depart to india) then it would be it would be like a cherry on top of cake to our (me, spouse Dr Lakshmi E Jayachandran & our 2 turned son Mukul Nair) U.K trip.

]]> Comment on Bombay Fever by Anna P. https://www.whatay.com/2017-7-10-bombay-fever/#comment-12044 Tue, 13 Jun 2023 09:31:40 +0000 https://www.whatay.com/?p=340#comment-12044 How in hell (not heaven) did you write a book like this– Bombay Fever– in 2017, well before the Covid Pandemic hit India in 2020? Of course, the final symptoms of Covid are not so colorfully dramatic as the ‘meltdowns’ with ‘explosions of blood’ which are the sign & symptom of the Bombay Fever.

Kudos to you. I am reading the book presently & enjoying it. A fun, fascinating read !!

All of a sudden my heart broke and the biggest fear of my life came back to torment me. Big big hug man. I don’t know how that feels and as empathetic I consider myself to be, I selfishly don’t want to go there. May God bless your mom’s beautiful soul! πŸ™

P.S. – It’s 2021, the world cup just got over and guess what! *runs*
