26th Jun, Blackburn , burns to the beauty of a Sunny day!!!

Atlast the sun is out, lovely weather & waking up to Usha aunty strumming the Sitar. After a morning at Joy Uncles Surgery, I am off to meet Reshma & family at Blackburn.

The previous night’s masti continues & it’s a perfect time with Reshma, Asfaq, & Rimsha. Loads of talk about Kalpana & Devika.Where I pick up words like “ In it” .. which really means “ Isn’t it”, & “Chalne”…. Yup, it’s the Gujju muslims here who are the Brit’s but do say a few gujju words & one of them is “Chalne”!!! We have come to the conclusion that UK will soon be taken over by the Gujju’s & Pakistani muslims!!!Ahem!!!:-)

Have Chai made by Rimsha, all of 10 years & the Chai is typical desi with masala & perfect!!! Best of all, if getting shoes from Deia, Devika was not enough , I just might get shoes from Rimsha too….. her foot size, like the girls, is same as mine!!! Have to make sure the TRIO create a band, they are alike in so many ways & one reminds me of another!!

Then off for some shopping, visit Reshma’s new home (kitchen shall be the most lived in), lovely location & landscape. Dinner at Frankie & Benny’s & then they drop me back through the most scenic route, which reminds us all off  Uttaranchal!!!

Trivia…. Clinic here is called Surgery …. Is it coz the GP’s do chotta motta surgery ???

Highlight, is the fact that the world is truly such a small place if one thinks about it!!! In course of talks at dinner, I find out, Asfaq is from Rampur, is a Doon school product & knows Arun as the total Crazy Arun Puri, who’s entire group was Wild!!!! To say that after that the entire conversations moved to wildlife, Doon, Uttranchal, the shikar’s, is an understatement. Ands that’s why I said, the drive back was a reminder of back home, coz his SatMap, took us through farms & complete forest rasta, did not for once touch the motorway!!! We were just waiting for a Tiger to show up!!!;-)
