The Humbug Returns

Mahendra went humbug tonight in his dark jacket with the crimson buttonhole. If I am correct this is the third appearance of that tie since the inception of this blog. It went beautifully with his black and gold pen (is it a Mont Blanc?) that he caresses so fondly while reading the news.

I had a flashback to his merry goodbye that I forgot to report on on Saturday night. "Have a marvellous weekend", he said. I duly obliged.
