Btw, how come u missed out the large-ish gold earrings tat ladies used to wear in those days?? :wink:
Not to mention the large 'nest-like' buns they made from their hair (again mostly the high-class ladies) & also fancy Sarees w/ large, flower patterns (sumtimes even gaudy) on them! :D
I had them too when I was 2-2.5 yrs old! :twisted:Quote:

And I thot girls as well.....? I rem. a few students still using these boxes even around 1987, in my early days of school (UKG/1st standard).......they were subsequently banned in our school a few years later.......prob. bcos they can be really noisy & thus cause disturbance.....?Quote:
