You said that, “admitting to like Saurav is a disease these days.” Why do you think saurav bashing is a privilege these days? His removal has caused an uproar in the country. Even non-Bengalis and all the news channels are bitching about his axing from the team. Some morons even thought about raising that issue in the parliament. Imagaine that. Most of the leading newspapers dedicate 2–3 pages to him, sulking on his elimination. News channels have gone mad. I am sure the news channels have better things to discuss than this. My only point is that, Saurav has become a hero. I am not a fan of his, but ‘admitting to like Saurav is actually not a disease’.

[…] London Cabbies: I loved them. They are bright, spacious (not sure what model of cars they are, but they look cute) and they are used generously for publicity purposes. So you have these colourful moving advertisements teasing you as they pass you by. As I later found out, the drivers can be pretty interesting too. […]

Hi Anita, from Vidalia, Georgia in the US. I happened upon your blog, and found it quite interesting. Great posting and your travels inm the UK somewhat mirror mine several years ago. In 1990, I was stationed at Mildenhall, near Cambridge, while in the UD Air Force. I made trips to all the wonderful places to see things I would never have been able to see without the Air Force sending me overseas. I also took a trip to Paris, and found it just as you said. Your comments about Montmartre brought back memories. Did you visit the cathedral there? I did, and it was breathtaking inside.

My best to you,
Joe
