Snapshots from the United Kingdom

Hey people, its me again posting after a long gap marked with a semester i would rather forget and a trip to the UK. Wonderful place for tourism, and if you are a avid shopper, there are places where you can go mad.
I wanted to share some pictures of the places and some things that caught my eye.Do not worry, none of the pictures have me in the frame ( Now who is interested in that ?? bah !! )

First stop : Stonehenge. Some say that the earliest stones at this place date back to 4000 to 5000 BC. A 150 odd miles drive from where i stayed. Some 2 hour drive when you have roads like this ( Driving nirvana !! )

The Emirates Stadium in North London. The Stadium was majestic but would have been better if placed somewhere else. I did not find the locale rather uplifting to the senses.

A stunning view while driving through Scotland. The scenery is consistently breathtaking throughout the journey.

The only Indian city mentioned at the Greenwich Meridian line is Bombay. I always thought Delhi was more important because its the capital. Maybe the brits thought otherwise..

And look ! guess who stopped by to pose for a photo :) !!  Madam Tussauds is loads of fun. !!

Now, this is the funny part. The picture above is a pay booth at a public toilet in central London. 50 pence is the fee. Hmm.. lets see... 35 Rs to pee ??!! . Now wtf dude.. i can go by the road for free from where i come from !! LOL.

And finally a really cool tissue to end with :)

Wii @ Blur

Blur at Sathyam Cinemas has now become on of the most popular gaming destinations featuring the latest games on the current generation of gaming consoles. If you are a gamer and you haven't been here, mostly you're not. This place has it all, PC, Xbox, Playstation 3,Wii and even good old coin operated arcade machines each having a dedicated floor.

The Wii is very much different because you dont play with a normal controller where you mash up buttons. You get to play games with your actions i.e. its Motion controlled. Common games are tennis,bowling,baseball,golf and even boxing. Its really fun to play it with a group of friends because 4 players can take part at once ( except for boxing) . The place is very large and spacious and you can spend hours together playing the Wii.

Lets come to the main reason why i posted this entry. I know almost everyone reading this ( about 5 or 6 people who actually visit my blog) know about the Wii and Blur. If you have seen the Wii up close, it does'nt have a disc tray. It just have a slot to push the disc into. 

And thanks to the intelligent customers who play at Blur, look at the sign posted by the management above the console (LOL)
