Anu! Wishing you a great new year!

Silly bean, laughing here. Guess what? I am the proud owner of an "andré" carrier bag from the shop itself. A present from my daughter on a recent visit to gay Paris...no contents just the bag!! Take care sweetheart xx

Anu, it is exactly that that is helping me get through this time. My loving thoughts and memories of Mum will sustain me.
She will live on in our hearts forever.
Thank you dear friend.
I miss you, it has been too long.

Nice job on the slide show, Anu! Now I know who to come to for the techy stuff I can't begin to understand!

Appy - you did a wonderful job with the cloud formation slide show!! Thanks for sharing.

we like it ......................................thanx a lot for such a nice page.

Anu, I have just today discovered the YouTube you made of the clouds on your Page. I got so far behind in reading comments I did not see your notice on Jan. 30 about posting it until Dave sent me an e-mail. Thank you so much for doing that. I hope lots of people will take a look at it & be as impressed as I was. Hope all is well with you.

Great YouTube appy, thanks.

Happy Valentines Day Anu

Happy Valentine's Day dear one! A day of love and hugs to you!

Dear Anu
Thank you for being the first to wish me a Happy Birthday. I had a lovely day and finished it at Amanda's for tea.

Anu, I was stunned into silence after reading your posts. Thank you. My son just returned home last week after a deployment in Iraq, his third. Thank you for that story.

Anu, thank you! I am soooo honored by these photos. They're absolutely impressively beautiful.

Dear Appy - No appology is needed. It is way too hard to keep track of everyone. We lost a son two weeks ago today. Thank you for your condolences. It is appreciated very much. My Sudoku Family is very special!

Anu - thanks for visiting my blooming bulbs! It was a chore planting all those bulbs, but I am so excited (like a little kid) to see them come to life!

Anu - just wanting to stop in and wish you a blessed spring...and leaving you a chocolate bunny and egg, just for good measure!

G'Day appy,
Sorry I haven't been around much lately, too busy!

Hey there anu! yes its me,missed you too,all is well and hope your well too, been very busy ,we built a little house and sold our house,in the process of moving ,when all is done we must catch up!
take care and thank you for your visit

Hi Anu. It was good to see you post today. I (and others) were wondering where you had gone. Hope all is well! Cheers!

I was pleased to see you are still around. You have been in my thoughts a lot lately so I thought I would pop in and say gday.
I hope you and your family are all well. I have missed our chats, but I have not been at the computer as much as I used to, life seems to be getting in the way.
Take care, and maybe one day we might be able to catch up again.

Hi, Appy. I've been thinking about you quite a bit since you expressed concern on the site about the Indian students bashings that have been happening here. Some of the responses at that time obviously frustrated you - and possibly hurt you.
Since then, there has been a lot of action, by students, governments and police. Locally, there have been many expressions of alarm and outrage about the attacks and there are real attempts to address the concerns.
Unfortunately, there are some very ugly people out there who seem to get their kicks from creating public outrage and so further attacks have occurred. These people are cowards and bullies full of hate and some misguided sense of their own superiority. Of course, they act in packs, too gutless to act alone. They have chosen Indian students as their victims at this time, but their kind of racism is such that they are likely to attck anyone who is perceived as different and an easy target.
I am sorry that these things are causing so much concern for the students and their home country. I hope the message is getting through that these are the actions of an ugly, prejudiced minority and that most Australians - and we are a very multicultural lot - abhor this kind of thing.

Hi, appy. Where are you? (recently, I mean. not at the moment...)

Hi Anu, was just thinking of you, hope all is well in your world. Take care.

Thanks for posting those photos of the eclipse Anu. What an amazing experience you and everyone else in India and other south Asian countries had a chance to experience. I only wish I could have seen it in person. How have you been? I rarely see you on the site anymore. I hope you and all your loved ones are keeping well. Cheers!

Great sign Anu...

Anu,
At your urging blurb, I had to visit your page to find out what was so interesting. It has been some time since I was last here, so to say that I found the sign interesting, is true, but more importantly, I have enjoyed going through your wonderful gallery of pictures. I had seen a few before, but many were new to me and covered so many places in this wide world....I really have enjoyed myself...and I have also chatted far longer than I expected.

I forgot to say that I do hope the various governments will take your suggestion and get a grip on how to fight this horrible flu...Its so easy to get distracted when you are having fun....

Dear Anu,
I was pleasantly surprised by your message - and thanks a lot. It sounds like medicine in India is pretty much like in the States... so it's best to be rich and healthy rather than sick and poor :-(
I do the puzzles just about every day, but seldom leave comments. Then Jerry's stupid joke got my hackles up (later saw the comments by Gail, Saylz, Jane and Glinda) so I answered him. And I'm glad there are still comments coming in about US health care. It seems incredible to me that one of the wealthiest nations in the world has no NHS - leaving the middle class uncovered.
This morning's paper La Repubblica - the only one Berlusconi (another sore point) can't control - had a feature article about 'Doctor Obama' - 'The Inferno of the American Patient'. What I found most interesting were the statistics from the WHO (World Health Organisation) about public health classifications: the USA is in 37th place and Italy is in 2nd place.
All NH schemes have their faults, but they have to exist.
Oh... I have seen on TV recently - I think BBC World - that people (probably the English) go to India for surgery, they have excellent care and results at a fraction of the cost at home. I haven't seen any such ads lately - can you confirm? I know my son comes from the US to Rome for health problems and the hospital plus flight etc. costs a fraction of what he would pay in the US.
Thanks again for your comments. I have followed you since the days when you were 'AP' and we didn't have to be registered to leave comments. I love your jokes.
Cheers,
Helen

Hi Appy -- Thank you for your kind comments about my pics. This is a wonderful site - so many very tallented photographers - your's are very cool too. What part of India are you from?

Can blocks roll?

Hello Anu, saw you in the chatroom yesterday but just as I was going to log in the phone went. Hope all is well, will hopefully catch you soon, take care xx

Anu, I watched it, it was wonderful. Lovely to see you and to hear of the history of the dolls. I can't imagine that some of them are over 100yrs old, such history. I noticed that you said it is important for them to be passed to the girls in the generation...does it have to be the girls or tradition? Thanks again for sharing. Lovely to chat with you today xx

A lovely photo on your flickr page, Appy.

Happy Birthday Appy. xxx

What she said!



Have a wonderful day.

, Anu! May it be a wonderful day with those you love and cherish!
