Action Replay

Teja Singh gets a warm hug from wife
Wife gets the first bite of birthday sweets
It continued to rain Sankranti sweets today also. In fact, it was more like ‘action replay’ – a continuation from yesterday – with even a birthday treat thrown in, just that the celebrations were a little dated.
As expected Lt Col Angad Singh came with jaggery crispies and revdies – sweets associated with winter in north India. There were the til-gul Sankranti luddoos as well – this time from friends (read non-members) in the Garden, including Suresh Samel, a retired sales tax commissioner.
But the biggest celebration was of Teja Singh Bhambra’s 76th birthday. For the first time, his wife was present to share the honours and it was from her hands that he took the first bite of a luddoo. They surely make a lovely, lovey-dovey couple and to our pleasant surprise, the lady struck a PDA pose with her arms around her husband in a warm hug.
Teja Singh’s birthday was actually four days back – on January 12. The celebration got delayed because we wanted to have it with the presentation of his birthday calendar. Besides, what could be any better than celebrating on an auspicious day – Guru Govind Singh Jayanti? Once again, many happy returns of the day, Sardar-ji!

The charm of birthdays is enhanced when couples join and celebrate together with colleagues. Today's was indicative of warmth and blush. This practice must continue. God bless the good folk.

The charm and warmth of celebrating birthday is enhanced when the couple join together and celebrates amidst the colleagues. It was a sign of warmth and blush together. This tradition must continue which brings happiness and health. God bless the good flock.
