This happened in Italia restaurant Thiruvalla (now Italia is replaced by Aryaas). It was evening and as usual we all were togther, ....there was one more person...Sabu Annan Alias Kuku with us. We grabbed the table and the poor waiter was arranging the plates and suddenly came out Shally's creativity. She started singing...."Enikku Mathram Poo
Plate...Enikku Mathram Poo Plate.." because only she got a decorated plate, a plate with flowers spread out. Everybody was enjoying the rhythm of shally's Enikku Mathram Poo Plate ( Only I got a Flower Plate) except Sabu Annan, seeing Siblings-on-action for the very first time. Basically Sabu Annan is 10-15 Seconds Late (more clarification required from Shaidamma, Sabu Annan's Wife). It took 10 -15 minutes for Sabu Annan to understand whats happening around. Gradually Sabu Annan returned to normal mode. All other siblings started eating and we were about to leave. I saw Sabu Annan standing near the reception alone and humming " enikku mathram poo plate...". He was very happy and little bit confused. He asked me ..."Kollaamalle..?".
