Congratulations! Wishing you and hubby many more wonderful years.

Here is my favorite Gazal in dedication

Enjoy.

Congratulations to you and yours. Mine was kept in the basement of my cousin house back in 1986. Very small (about 60 people) as compared to now. And also cheap lol

Congratulations.

Congrats Lynn.

Oh rant Django I was asking bout you a lil while back. Hey Django I seem to recall you worked at a music store where they sold song lyrics (some were poorly typed) Mohammed's was the store correct?

Wasn't that on Robb St?

That's correct started working in the year 1976 as an electronics technician for nine years and was workshop manager for six of the nine years.

Ahhhh, then I missed you by three years, I migrated '73. 

Am I seeing right, Django posting? Like the chap was on honeymoon, scarce like flour in Forbes' time.

Georgetown was great in those years. My first stint living and working in GT was from 1970 to 1972 went back home on WCD. From 1976 traveled daily to work, hated the crowded ferry, it was better after the Demerara Harbor Bridge was built.

Thnx for the wishes

A friend had an arranged marriage and went home from NY for the wedding in 1981. On the wedding day, some friends went to bring the musicians to the girl's home, but terrible rain caused an accident, and there was no music at the wedding. The girl told her mom that the heavy rain and accident were bad signs, but her mom shut her up and sent her under the maro to marry the guy. I guess the girl had feelings of impending doom. The couple have a wonderful son, and that's the only good thing that came from that marriage.

Were they happy? The marriage must have taken place in the rainy season, just like mine.
