To Finchley Station

-












London
England



I started my Journey at 10 am
from Thornton Heath Road
Top up my Oyster Card from the
nearby Off Licence shop
It is a different type of Travel Card
Like pay as you go card

I put 10 pounds as I will take train so
will cost more
went to Sainsbury which is just
opposite to get Flowers and Cake
for my Grade 7th school time friend
I will see her at lunch at her place

I could not get anything like that
from Sainsbury
so taken Bus # 109 to Tesco 
which is two stops away
I got pink roses and Carrot Cake
have to pay 5 pence extra for plastic bags

Now I am all set to continue my journey
have to take #109 again to
Norbury Train Station where I will
take train to Victoria Train station 
from there Bus # 82 take me to
Finchley Station 40 minutes
to my friend place

I love Bus # 82 Route
it goes through all the sightseeing
Places Hyde Park --  Marble Arch
Selfridges The very prestigious 5 star
shopping store same as Harrods
Lords Cricket Ground 
I am sitting on the front seat at the
Upper Deck and enjoying the Tour

I don't know what will happen to my pink Roses 
which I purchased at 10 am
at the start of my Journey
but I will make sure to keep my
Love and Smile fresh for my friend
I was at her place at 12.30
it took 2 and a Half hour for the whole trip

I forgot all my tiredness as I saw My friend
happy to see me with her Smile
We were at school from 1954 to 1958
Did our High School together

    Hi Smile,

    You are on your holidays and yet looking out for my comment. It shows how kind you are to all your readers, including the ones which are new. We dont deserve this kindness.

    I did comment though. It was just before Boris did :-)

Bird are busy picknicking

    Beautiful morning sunny and bright. No more rain. We had already more than enough of it. Grass and flowers, don't need any watering. It is 26 C, hot day.   This is weekend, I have to do my hair color. My friend invited me for afternoon tea. I will go there. It is always good to be with friends and family. We have to accept invitations, to make our day. I think, calls are sort of blessings. Signals from God for us to gather happiness. Life is nearly the same for everyone. It is all up to us, how we take it.  Try to give color to the moments in hand. Sitting idle, doing nothing, won't bring happiness. Try to be active, do something, anything you like to do. Go for walk, to look the scenery around.  Some people like outdoors, some not. They like to be indoors. Find the spot of your choice in your garden / balcony, get book / magazine of your interest, to be happy. Bird watching is beautiful. You feel great, watching them doing things, you get invo...

Nature is great

     October 29th 2024 It's a different scenario today. Cloudy morning hazy sky. Sun is hiding under his gray blanket. It is Tuesday so I don't have to go to work. No Darts today at the library. It is a day off for me. I have to make other plans to make my day. Day offs are like clean slates. We have to write our schedule to fill out the columns of the day. When we have to go to work or school, our timings are all set.  We don't have to worry about how to pass our time. We have just a couple of hours left to sort out after coming back from our workplace or school. Weekends and day offs are tricky. We need some homework to fill out our day slots. Try to make it like a combo, a mixed plate to have a taste of everything. Day offs are like blank sheets. We can write, paint, whatever we want to do, to fill out. Every day is like a container with twenty four hours of consignment. It's delivered every morning.  We have to open it and use to finish it up. It all has to ...

Have a taste of Nature

      October 22nd 2024 Great morning 18C. It is like summer for Canadians. Couple of more days to enjoy the outdoors.  Beautiful leaves of all colors are everywhere giving a scenic look to the atmosphere to behold and to cherish these moments. Nature is amazing. There is always something for we Humans to make our day. Take some time off from your day today to look around. You will find beauty everywhere. It doesn't matter in which part of the world you live. Don't have to plan for long trips. It is all at your doorsteps. Keep your eyes open and take a break to smell the nature around. You will get the flavor and also inner peace deep down. It will be a rare happiness all on its own. You don't have to make any payments, any investments for that. Just a time alone slot and all the transactions will be done. It works like meditation. It's 11.45, I am at Tim Hortons enjoying my small tea, not coffee today. We have to change our menu too. It works something like a change...
