Random Notes

  • This week we watched Happy Go Lucky which was a sweet movie & Tashan which was a disappointment as it turned out to be a movie where you should leave your brains at home.Akshay Kumar seems to be the saving grace of the movie.Anil Kapoor overacted.Kareena plays a bimbo and Saif is an underdog in the movie.
  • Friday evening we celebrated my BIL 33rd B'day at Wagamama where i had vegetable dumplings filled with cabbage,carrots,water chestnuts,onion,celery and Chinese leaf for starters and Yasai Itame which was a bowl of noodles with fried tofu,red and spring onions , red peppers, portobello mushrooms and beansprouts in a spicy coconut and green chili soup. We ended our evening by having Pineapple cake for dessert. Thereafter we rushed to watch Three and Out in West India Quay and laughed to our heart's content.







  • This Saturday it was such a lovely weather .. bright and sunny with no sign of clouds i decided to take a walk on my street and came across these beautiful Tulips that i couldn't resist taking a picture.In the evening we attended Zee Cine Awards at Excel Exhibition Center.Even after shelling out $100 for tickets i was still disappointed with the seating arrangement.I think it also made the difference as we have once watched IIFA live and kept comparing between the two.


  • From this Sunday i started playing Badminton at my local gym in Wanstead.This year i decided that i will be involving myself in more physical activities like taking up some sports..and so Badminton twice a week.In the afternoon we visited Queen Elizabeth's Hunting Lodge built for Henry VIII in 1543.It was built so he could watch and participate in deer hunting however it is unclear as to he ever ventured in the forest.After that we drove towards High Beech which looks out over the Lea Valley to London beyond.We had a light lunch of Jacket Potatoes/ Nachos with Dips and Chips at Kings Oak Pub.
