April 13th

Well it may have taken time for Madhur's TIAS to arrive but WHAT an adventure her gang of dragons has had!!! This is her comment

88. So here are my TIAS 2022, finally done.

Now I have something interesting to share.

You will know there was so much delay in completing day 12 and 13 by me.

You see I was on a fortnight travel trip with family in the second week of Feb, staying at various hotels at different destinations during that period. Usually I carry my tatting pouch on travel trips, just in case I get time in between sightseeing etc. On 4th day I realized that the tatting pouch wasn't in my luggage. I was devastated. The "dragons " were on wings!!!! But just wasn't too sure if I had brought it this time or not.

Just because didn't want to spoil my vacation, I put the thought of losing the pouch at the back of my mind, believing that this time I might have left it back home.

It was upon return when I couldn't find the pouch at home either, that resulted in a series of frantic phone calls to all the various 8-10 hotels where we had parked ourselves.

And you can't believe my happiness when the hotel staff of one of the hotels ( where we had stayed on day 2) informed me that they had found the pouch and had deposited the same with the " list and found" desk.

They were courteous enough to have it sent. It took about another fortnight for the courier to reach me making its way from the snow clad remote village to the cities and finally to my address.

I thus completed the project and here they are safe, back at home.

I thoroughly enjoyed tatting these Jane.

Hugs from India.

Thanks, Madhur and I'm so happy they arrived home safely after their 'Tour de India'.
