Hi Archana, CONGRATULATIONS to you!! Thanks for the elaborate write-up, it was like reading an interesting part of a novel :-) I wish you a lifetime of happiness with Vaskar.
Unfortunately, for some reason I did'nt receive your email directly, read it under Jaya & Sushma's responses, so obviously did'nt get the attached photos. Could you please re-send it again so I can also see the pics of your wud-be better half? Cheers!
