Under the Tamarind Tree !

Seventeen of us met at the delightful 'Tamarind' restaurant on Sarat Bose Road on August 29 evening to bid farewell to our dear friend Dr. N. Annamalai ("Anna" to all) and Mrs. Annamalai who were moving to Chennai after more than three decades in Kolkata ! It was a relaxed, fun evening with music, songs, games and jokes, nostalgia and good dining ! Anna has been Treasurer and Librarian in the Region, a keen participant in all our activities, alongside his busy professional career as Trainer, mainly in Creativity. Anna will be greatly missed. We all wish him and Mrs. Anna well, and hope to see them again when they revisit Kolkata or when we drop in to Chennai !
