Kausik Joins the Club

I had hoped to pick up some bowties for my friend Kausik and his sons while I was in the States last June. The vagauries of internet ordering and what not meant that the ties did not arrive until after I had left.

The package was duly shipped to me, but suffered terribly in transit. Fortunately there was no harm to the contents, and I was over joyed at its final arrival.

It turned out to be good timing as Kausik's birthday was last week. So the ties served as a birthday present.

They are what we would call Madras plaid, but I assure you I have looked all over Madras and the plaids here tend to be blue and black, not nearly so festive.

I was truely touched that kausik took such a shine to his new sartorial neckwear and brought it to work on Wednesday.

A quick 5 minute lesson in the men's room, and another member of the club is inducted!
