From Heathrow Airport

Image result for Costa at Heathrow airport pictures








It is Tuesday morning sunny bright beautiful 16 C in London England --
34 C in Toronto. It is 10 am, I am done with my breakfast, walking around 
in the back garden of my daughter in Reading.

 My luggage is all packed, I am sort of ready to go to my home to Toronto.
I have to say good bye to England, the land of three of my Daughters. 
I spent about eight weeks here, shunting between Croydon, Grimsby and Reading.

 I came to England on 1st of July leaving today on 28th of August. It all looked now a dream to me and Dreams always come to an end. I have to come to reality. Done is done. I have to leave at 11 am from my Daughter's place for Heathrow airport. That is reality. 

 My Air Canada flight is waiting for me at Terminal # 2. At 3 pm it will fly and take me to my home,Toronto. My Son will be waiting for me at Pearson airport. I will be in Toronto at 6.40 pm, that is 11.40 pm England time. 

 I am in the car now leaving my Daughter's place going towards Heathrow.
My Grandson is driving. He is in 3rd year in Leeds Uni. I am sitting on front seat next to him. My Daughter is talking to me from back seat.

 We had great time at Heathrow Airport, had Soy Latte with sandwiches, rice cake and almond croissant at Costa cafe. Afterwards I was going to the Departures, my Daughter was standing with her son to see me off. 

 End of the Fairy Tale Trip to England. But this is life. It goes on changing.
That's the beauty. I will freeze these amazing moments till my next trip to 
England. 

 I am in the plane now writing My Blog enjoying my flight
watching " Peter Rabbit " I enjoy cartoon movies.

    I have posted the blog in Smile Corner. The customers are appreciating the at Smile wrote even on the day of the trip however they are saying that miss the Recipe blog. They are asking if you can post one tomorrow. The priest was here and told them that we should not put too much demand on Smile as she must be jet lagged

      SWN was fun too. We also talked about the blog. Participants were missing the recipe blog but they all understand that its not fair for Smile to be sending that this week

      As there is no recipe blog, I have cancelled our reading of the blog. I know everyone of you loves the reading of the recipe blog but Smile just came back, so its understandable

    Dear Advisor,

    The retirees went for our long walk today. After that we had our lollipop. This walk, though very long for us, is nothing compared to the walks that you have. The retirees instead went straight to the reading of your blog.

    The retirees appreciated that you wrote for your readers on the day of your international travel. We don't travel, either internationally or nationally, so don't have much experience. One retiree does do a lot of travelling. He travels one a year on a very long flight. His flight is 2 hours. He mentioned that he dose not engage in any activity other than waiting for the plane during the week This is because it is too stressful.

    The hospital administrator, the physicians, the hospital staff, the café manager, the chef and many ex patients came to the reading of the blog as it is Thursday and they were thinking that you will write your Recipe blog. We jokingly refer to it as Recipe Thursday. They were somewhat disappointed as there were no recipes however they said that they understand that you will not be writing the recipe for another month or so. The hijab lady and the temple people were here though. The lady made use of the large crowd to talk about the recent festival that they had. She said that they sacrifice animals and distribute the food to needy, family and friends. She wanted to give a long talk but there was a controversy as the vegetarian retiree got offended. The lady reminded them that you also write non vegetarian recipes however they said that it is different as you have a global readership and you don't preach a certain way of living. As it was getting too argumentative, many retirees started leaving

    thank you
    recent retiree

    Dear Author,

    We read your blog at the Smile Garden today. The plan was to read the blog at the SRC however the Dean asked us to change the venue. Its a good thing that he did as the Smile Army was very emotional today. They were chanting slogans. Prof George was heard saying to the Dean that its a good think you anticipated that Smile Army will be a little loud today. He said that Smile is back and was writing on the day of her travel, so he did want the student to cut down on the celebratons. Prof George smiled. The Dean asked him jokingly that since there is no recipe, what will he have for dinner. Prof George looks forward to these recipes as much as the all of us do

    thank you

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...

     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...
