a beautiful country with shires & counties... with woods & farms
I once dreamt my way to office to be surrounded with nature, filled with farmlands on one side , bunchy trees on the other side with pleasant drive of air that energizing you. But anyone who lives in Chennai or hyderabad would know that you can only dream of it :)
Its the dream come true while travelling from Oundle - the place i lived in England - to Peterborough - the place where my office is. The 10 miles of journey takes me to my dream everyday...
Oundle - an ancient market town, also has one of the England's top school - the Oundle school, running for 450+ years (WOW). Its a small town where you can go around in 20 mins by walk but Peterborough is a modern city, an important rail hub connecting London to the North.
Sometimes or to say most of the times in the evening when i am alone in my cottage, it was really boring for me. Thanks to the England's TV channels, i found some programmes of good interest to me
- 'England got Talent'
- '20th Century Battlefields',
- The Rise and the Fall of - Tony Blair, Maragarat Thatcher
- The making of Deep Throat
are some programmes helped to pass my time until i get sleep.
But the most beautiful pass time is watching the Extended edition of the Lord of the Rings. There were also special DVD's on how they made it. hmm, here's my movie list in UK trip
- The Departed (watched in Emirates flight, on my way to London)
- Citizen Kane ( " )
- The 12 Angry Man (from my lapi)
- A Beautiful mind ( " )
- A few Good men ( " )
- The Spy Game (too good, i watched it thrice, thanks Matt)
- The Lord of the Rings (1, 2 & 3 = 6 DVD's) + Behind the Scenes (6 DVD's) ooops!
- The Highlander (1980's movies, fav film of Gary)
- Alien (DVD is waiting for me to see)
its a thrilling sadness to miss this place, but without friends even the heaven would be boring for me... (alright, dont ask me,'Will you see that?' :)
