AGM, Pooram and Another Silver Jubilee

I was planning to reach home before Vishu. But it was not to be.

There was this high level sponsor meetings in Abu Dhabi and all the big shots were here during 12-15 of April I had to stay for it and postpone my journey to 16th.

Linju (Daughter of Ambu and Latha) got engaged to Santosh on 21st. Linju looked great in her bride's attire and Santosh is a perfect match for her. Met many old acquaintances from Porathissery. See more photos here: Linju's Engagement

Sample fire woks on 22nd and AGM on 23rd. Hari and Sreekumar arrived on 22nd evening for Sample fireworks and left after the AGM. Sample

Started operation of Uninor show room on 22nd, in time for Pooram.

Madhu and Shabu came for Pooram. Went to see Matathil varavu for some time, but could not stand the heat wave. Madathilvaravu

It rained a bit around 02.00am on 25th so that the fire works was almost postponed. However they managed to start it around 04.30 am. Kuttu was inside the Thiruvambadi fireworks area helping the workers! Crazy! Would not help his mother to get groceries from Varkey's, but was carrying the big bombs to the pits, alone! Fireworks

28th April was the 25th wedding anniversary of James and Beena. But they decided to celebrate it on 2nd (Sunday) night as it will be more convenient for people. In our case, our jubilee was on a holiday, so we could do it on the same day.

James and Beena had invited only family members for the party. We were the only exceptions. It was a grand party in Joy's palace with singing, dancing and other programs. Beena was looking really beautiful and with Jinu and Jeslin they made a wonderful family. Everyone liked the dance of Vimal! See photos here:  Silver Jubilee of James and Beena

On the early hours of 4th Tuesday, I returned to Abu Dhabi and the long grind that lies ahead! Habshan is not an easy place. 150 km away from Abu Dhabi, it is a desert area prone to the sand storms on a daily basis. And at $4.7 Billion, our project is easily one of the largest projects today.

This will be a challenging project by any standards. Let us see how it plays out!
