With the wedding just one day away the tension was mounting in the house. Everyone was running helter skelter trying to finish up small things. Thameem came home around 10.30am and we both left for Pondy bazaar again for last minute shopping. We bought bangles, broaches, and other small items. Went in for an amazing lunch at an Andhra lunch home...Awesome!

It started raining by now and we were on our way to Fatema's house...I was going to get bridal henna done...If you are getting married and want to know her information...Shoot an e-mail...She is simply superb. I am not kidding because...Normally my hands only get orange after five hours of drying but this time...It turned a perfect red and only after four hours. It was beautiful...She was fast...She did all the way upto forearms and my feet in just three hours...

Later we went and picked up Bino, Archana and Jinga (now called Dalia) from Central Station before heading home to eat Malai Kofta and Fried rice from Saravana Bhavan.

Shaw was coming in at 2.00am or 3.00am late in the night and dad was going to pick him up with Ramesh. Ramesh insisted on going alone but dad was adamant to receive his son...So off they went while I slept after scraping off the henna from my hands...It was RED!
