24th Jun, Gordon Brown comes to Power & first official speech in Manchester!!!

The Veterans day event, organized by the Manchester city council, at the Town Hall to celebrate contribution of those that served in the armed forces. An afternoon where we just missed seeing Tony Blair & Gordon Brown, met up with the Ex & current Lord Mayor of Manchester City & a few govt officials!!! Jeje, is one Mr. Popular here, with everyone walking across to meet him & since we were with him , hume bhi bhav mil gaya!!!

It was a lovely festive atmosphere, with the veterans grooving to the music & enjoying with the special performers who had been invited to entertain them. Sater saal ke budhe ya satra saal ke jawan???!!!!

Since all the major Leaders are in Manchester, the protest marchers around Town hall in full form, band baje ke saath, protesting against the Iraq war,!!!

Mama was upset that Jeje didn’t talk to the right people, whereby we all could have gone & met all the delegates & heard Blair & Brown’s speech.Must say, that sure would have been some affair to attend!!!

Hightlight has to be the fact that my T-shirt which says “I’m not crazy, I’m mad”, raised a few eyebrows & smiles !!!;-)

Trivia …. Only about 40% of  British kids, go to University in comparison to other nations!!!!( according to Gordon!!)
