This might surprise you, but this was my first trip on an Air India flight. Previously we have always flown British Airways and on one occasion United Airlines. Then again, we have always flown to New Delhi. This was not just a change of airline but a change of destination. Direct to the Punjab and […]
Back To The Motherland
As you read this post, I will hopefully be taking off on an Air India flight for a two week holiday back to India. It has probably been the worst kept secret of all time in our household. My Mum and youngest sister Julie, did not know that I was actually going until I pulled […]
Breaking The News
I was getting rather anxious waiting for my sisters to arrive to pick me up. It was nearly 9:34am on Sunday 11th July. I should have left for Heathrow Terminal 3 by now. My Mum and sister Julie were already there with my Dad and probably wondering why they had not checked in just yet. […]

Let It Burn…
I was bored one evening, one weekend a few weeks back and I happened to stumble upon my dear friend Hussein’s now abandonded web log. He is perhaps one of those people, whom I wish had never stopped blogging because he always has a project on the go, an amazing jaw dropping adventure on the […]
A Culture Shock
While most of the country were sitting down to watch England face Algeria in the World Cup, I was in the car with Clive and friends heading to Beaconsfield. It was for the outdoor performance of Twelfth Night by the Chiltern Shakespeare Company in the Hall Barn. Just a shame the weather was so bad, […]

My sister, Samantha got back from her girlie holiday to Portugal last night and told me about Les Grossman on MTV in a rare live appearance. I did a few searches on the XBox using the fantastic YouTube script! Eventually we found a clip but it was screened backwards (I am unsure of the technical […]
By The Skin Of My Teeth
As you may or may not already know, I like to take risks. Taking risks with my journey to and from work, is perhaps not something I would wholeheartedly recommend. I decided to catch the train for several reasons, even though I know I could have worked from home. Although, that would have looked rather […]
All Change
A historical week for the United Kingdom, but a below average week for me. Nothing major to report at all really, I just thought it would be a nice change to actually post “live”. I have to be honest, I had almost forgotten how good it feels. I am still in the progress of transferring […]
A Typical British Bank Holiday Weekend
The Easter Bank Holiday Weekend, I feel is rather underrated, particularly after the feror surrounding Christmas. Under normal circumstances, I would have made big plans for the four day break. However, two things worked against me this year. Firstly I had to work on Good Friday. Working in an international environment, where you are supporting […]
