Four Eight Eight Four
Nine Two - What reads here is a phone number - a Landline number [fixedline
number]. Mobile phones had not reached Indian shores. When Landline was a
communication lifeline ; remembering important phone numbers became a habit.

FREIGHT - If you have
read my Prompt C it tells you I work for Maritime industry. Shipping
professionals breathe in & breathe
out the word Freight. When expressed in PER DAY TERMS- it's called HIRE. When on
roads you "Hire a Cab" ; when in waters- you "Charter a
Ship"

FINDING NEMO- THE BOOK
- Recently we had been to a book fair called"BooksbyWeight". In the process of finding other books- we found - Finding Nemo. My
2.5 year old is super excited with this book. She recognizes the book by its
cover & follows the story though pictures. Now I am on a hunt to look out
for more animated movies in book form.

The Multicolored Diary
I had a smile when I read Freight. HIre vs Charter. We have quite a few airline pilots in our family. I used to tease them if you drive a bus, you are a driver. If you drive a plane, you are a pilot.
That's fun to associate a word to the 3 cities!
The landline days... the good old days!
Finding Nemo is a cute lil story and with such profound life lessons.
The phone number, somehow, made me smile. :-)
I enjoy reading your post.
So good to know that the love of books is being fostered among kids in the digital age of temptations! :)
