PC @ CP

Thats Pierre Cardin at Cut Price. Had to buy a blazer chop chop and peering out of the window for inspiration found a Pierre Cardin Store with signs screaming "upto 75% off". Popped in to have a dekko and came away with a blazer at Dhs 300 against an MRP of Dhs 1390. Also set of 3 Ted Lapidus silk ties at Dhs 90 for the lot (Dhs 660). Original stuff no worries. Not a bad day's work, think I.

All this for a media party with a twist - dress code "formal". Wonder if well-pressed jeans and a clean tee qualify as "formals"...

Ignored the Indian budget for the first time in a decade. The benefits of living in a tax-free zone. Apparently nothing earth shaking like "Income tax reduced to 1%". Perhaps the title of this blog could be applied to our Finance Min too...?

Its been dry since three days and early mornings are rather nice. None of that "glorious dew 'pon the rose petals" stuff but cool enough to revel.
