The week that went by had it's share of fun and 'heartburns' too. Sales is happening as planned and both the baskets (JD & Piaggio) are filling up satisfactorily. Nanda from PVPL was here and both of went through the usual Chikmagalur assertions and denials. In the end as I expected & hoped, nothing came of it. However he has some interesting ideas as a sales guy, and let me see, how he could be of help to us.
A number of D810 vehicles arived with the engines in bad shape. That was the dificult part. We did send them out all right. But it pains me to see that Piaggio did not do a great job in the vehicle design part of the automobile. The Lombardini engine though expensive is worth it's price though.
John Deere will be meeting us at Singapore in December or January. Which means I will have to bring Smitha & Sooryan from home soon. Plan on doing that early next month. I need to see if I can visit Bombay this weekend too. Spoke to Jilu Ammama in Delhi. She's doing great and seems like Koshy hasn't been to kerala for 3 years now.
Attended church today and it was nice to see our church in Shimoga. I could somehow never imbibe the church going attitude, but I hope that with the church here, at least Sooryan will.
