Tags are a wonderful and frustrating thing at the same time. They seem to spring up from nowhere and have a life of their own. They go all over the place. Usually it’s a girl who starts it, with such gems as “What are you wearing ?”.
I’ve now been tagged by Athivas. A wonderful blogger who writes lovely verses. She’s so very friendly and writes such superb comments to make any blogger’s day. So when she tagged me with one of the girliest of all tags, I had to discard all semblance of business, dress up in a “pink dress” , imagine myself as one of the Mills & Boon girls and write this :) Be warned – all answers are of the “pink pink variety”. Athivas is the most sporting of bloggers – so I know she won’t mind me having a little bit of fun at whoever originated this tag.

15. If you became a multimillionaire overnight, what would you buy?

(Blushing) – I’ll ask him what he’d like to call her
20. Imagine your first child is a boy, what do you call him?
(More blushing) – I’ll name him, He jnr.
21. Would you ever consider living abroad?
Yes, wherever there’s a beach, there’s blue sky, there’s gentle water lapping at our heels as we hold hands and gaze into the sunset.

OMG!!! look what savitha's tag has done to u..
u n mush writing.. nah
Obviously nah. This was a devious plot to deflect girlie tags :)
I m sick of love!!! :D
Ramesh you are way better in a business suit than in a "pinker" dress!! :D Poor Savi is going to cringe at this!! :D
On the floor ... Ramesh ... your humorous side is "killing me softy"....(yikes)..!!!
ahem! I have made up my mind--all girlie tags WILL be passed to Ramesh, henceforth! :D.
Had a non-stop laugh!And, God, for 22 consecutive questions.
Thanks for taking up the tag, and for that intro of me....
//I can hear the beating of his heart, the song on his lips, the music in his ears ….//
What a poetic way to say that? :)
LOL! And you think that this will get you out of any future tags :-)
Hope you are enjoying getting back to work and wishing you the most competent subordinates ;-)
@thoughtful train - I completely agree. Hence stuck to blogging on business which is the only thing I know :)
And "sick of love" ?? Hey hey ??
@blogueur - :) :)
@athivas - you are not only such a kind blogger and reader, but you're also a great sport. I'm in awe milady ...
@ DA - That was the thought, but as you know men were never known much for the grey matter :) Thanks for the wishes - does the academic harbour secret thoughts of becoming a practitioner ??
Oh no... that would be too much hard work... I enjoy my perpetual sabbatical :-)
OK... this was one scary! Since I don't blog, I don't understand this "tagging" concept - but please please, take off your pink dress at once I say ;-)
Ramesh
Can't handle this version of you. I don't know what tag means, but i am tagging you to Please get back to Writing "Titan steps down" and the like.
Sandhya
@Aashish - ;) then pink dress has been burnt !
@Sandhya - Beware ! As a fellow blogger, you're going to get tagged one of these days :)
Rainbows reign! :)
Bring out the pink pistols!
and long live tags :)
I am waiting for my next girlie tag in all eager anticipation now that you have given us a glimpse of your other side :D
Cheers
preeti
@ Preeti - OMG :-)
LOL. This had me in splits. I could also imagine you speaking the answers in as best a feminine voice that you could manage :)
Btw, Happy Dussehra!
Ha ha this was absolutely hilarious! Looks like this is what Mills and Boon is all about!
cheers
Kiwi (currently eating bratwurst in Stuttgart - lovely city of the merc and the porsche - a sequel to the Lux and the ZRH visit!)
@Ajay :-) Happy Dusshera to you too.
@kiwi - Now this is really intriguing. I can understand Lux and ZRH. But what on earth are you doing in Stuttgart. And do you have to say you are eating wurst. Paavum panni ! Kashtam Kashtam !!
