Looking at the picture, my face looks a bit serious! And the same goes for the kids with me! lol. Generally, I noticed that in Panjab people become tense and put a serious face on when taking a photo (I am no exception!).
Inside the card he wished my family and I a happy Gurpurb and said that his family send their regards. I was quite impressed, because usually people you meet on holiday don't bother to keep in touch (especially in PANJAB!).
Bhai Sahib Nirmal Singh sent me a card and also a letter previously as well, in which he sent a photo of himself, his kids and I. He is such a nice person, and so is his family.
I think this has inspired me to write about my travels, adventures and experiences from my trip to India and Panjab in 2003. It was an important visit, becuase it was during that period I was graced with the gift of taking Amrit and pledging my life to Guru Sahib.
So watch this space for small episodes from journey to India in 2003 :)

Nice khanda ;) you should wear a bigger one more often. When I went hoping to be blessed with Khandey Di paul Manvir Singh decided I looked great with a MASSIVE khada on my pugh and got his mum in on it to. well I give in Peer pressure. lol haha. ahhh looks great cant wait. Also cant wait to see what new advetures this year will hold for us all. Hopefully inter-exciting ones haha ;)
Long live big Khandey! :) hahaha
Singh the big khanda on your pagh looked good!! trust me :) You stood out like a Nishan Sahib. Raj Karega Khalsa!
If you need any more big Khanda to put on your pagh, let me know and I can sort you out. Sadly, all my mini Khandey's pins have broken (so I need to get some more when I go to India!).
Recieving letters, especially ones that are handwritten, really make you smile since you tend to appreciate the effort and time put into it. Even posting cards on Gurpurabs, although which may have come about from christmas cards etc, are far more pleasing than an email. One thing which modern technology cannot beat i guess!!
Sooo true..
I haven't gotten a hand-written letter addressed to me since 2003, when our fourth grade teacher finally sent out those letters we wrote to ourselves in her class - and that was the only one I ever got =(
I think I'm going to go call up a friend and make her send me a letter =P
Waheguru.
I have written a letter in reply to Granthi Nirmal Singh jee. BUT I typed the letter! lol.
Should I hand write it?
You should hand write it I think.

It's a pale imitation, but the events are true.
Waheguru
Veerjee, I just noticed that on the side where you've posted links, you put Veer Uttam Singh Jee's blog link as 'Stingstah' rather than Singhstah..
I like the pic links for the HukamNaamaa and organizations.. looks good.
