Banking holidays on 2nd and 4th Saturdays

Some moments of absolute nothing-ness in a nearby coffee shop, a sumptous wife-made lunch, some serious blogging on atleast half a dozen ideas, start and encouraging penetration of a new book, serious moments with the lil' one, fond remembrances and recital of some old poems (not lost from memory but had become a memoir) with the better-half and a silent family dinner before EOD; believe the first ever second-Saturday holiday could not have been better.

I do not know about others but for me 12-Sep is no less than an important red-letter day of life.

Shifting CloudsShifting Clouds by Ashoke Mitra
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This was one of the shortest yet sweetest book that I have come across in recent times. It is pregnant with simplicity, human values, middle class values, small town easiness and lucidity. By God's grace if I were to write a book one day, it would be on these lines.
