Off to India...
... for 2 weeks. With 2 kids and a packed itinerary(including a weekend Bangalore trip) over there, it seems highly unlikely that I'll be able to post anything new until I get back. So, Happy Pongal... And see u all in a couple of weeks :)
Ram, Challenging quiz to keep the BBThots-ians engaged in the absence of the veteran :) I was able to find out all the 5 songs (1-5) but none of the scripts (6-10). Give us some more clues or better still, give us the answers. Anyway, here are the answers for the first 5:
1) Thendral vandhu ennai thodu from Thendrale Ennai Thodu 2) Sippi irukkudhu muthum irukkudhu from Varumaiyin Niram Sigappu 3) Unnai paartha pinbu thaan from Kaadhal Mannan 4) Poongaattru Pudhiraanadhu from Moondraam Pirai 5) Thooliyile aada vandha from Chinna Thambhi
Lucky bum! Have a very safe and sane trip with your family. I'll definitely miss your blog activity =(.
