London Must-Sees

Apart from Tower Bridge, Big Ben and London Eye, we had also visited some Must-Sees tourist spots.

1. Picadilly Circus

I just love the name, for no reason. Doesn't it sound so cool when you say to your friends "Meet you at Picadilly Circus!" as compared to "Meet you at Sungai Wang" ???
Ha-ha :D

2. Trafalgar Square


3. Buckingham Palace

We wanted to watch the ceremony of Changing the Guards at Buckingham Palace unfortunately it was cancelled due to the drizzly weather :(


Maybe next time :) We're going to London again in Jan.

We only managed to see a platoon of guards passing by and not sure where they were going?



4. British Museum

It was snowing when we was there. Can you spot the snow flakes on my Mr. N's hair?


Personally, I think there're more to see in British Museum than Madam Tussaud's.

The museum is huge! You could easily spend the whole day strolling around the different sections, reading the articles and captions for some history lessons and admiring various sculptures from Greek civilisation to British empire. What's better than if it's free of charge? Ya, there is no entrance fee charges!

Interesting sculpture? T-hee :D

I got to see the real Eygptian mummies!!!

5. Harrods

We went to Harrods! Alright, this is not a must-see tourist spot. It's a very luxurious shopping heaven!!!

At the food hall, foods are beautifully presented! This is not for display only, they are for sale.

Stuffs are extremely expensive!

I am missing London already !!!

Yeah, it's Friday!

I met Nel at town after work.
We went to our favourite chinese restaurant.
We had crispy BBQ duck and Tau Foo with seafood for dinner. Yummy...mmmm~~~

Satisfied! I love my life here, simply because it's simple.

Have a great weekend!

Filthy Taxi Driver

I took a taxi to client's office today.
Guess what? The taxi driver farted in the car!!!!!!!
He farted! He farted!

Shouldn't he suppose to say sorry? Or at least feel a bit embarrassed, perhaps?
He did not!!!

Oh my god!!! At least he should have opened the windows, so that the smell would disperse more quickly!!!

He handed me his name card. And lo and behold...

His name is Pat!
That's the same as the manager from my office I blogged about last week.
Attention everybody, never ever go near to anybody whose name is Pat!!!

Yuckssss!!!!!

Here it comes again!

It was freaking COLD today.

Along with the gusty wind, I almost die when I was waiting for the train.
T-hee, a bit exaggerated!

Oh my oh!

Since May 2008, 46,ooo people have been made redundant in Ireland due to the economy downturn affected by the global credit crunch. Mind you, the population in Ireland is merely over 4 millions only. An additional 1% of the citizen are umemployed!


Nel's company has sacked 21 employees in July. And 23 employees this month! That add up to about 30% of the company workforce.

Shocked

One of the managers in my office has resigned. I was shocked when the announcement was made.
Personally, I don't think he actually resigned. I think he was sacked or being made redundant.

I don't work under him but I do feel sorry for him for losing his job, especially in a uncertain situation when the Celtic Tiger economy is tamed now! Ireland is officially in recession now!!!

He was always the talk of the company.

He is filthy.
He is smelly.
He farts in the office, loudly.
He is nosey.

These are the comments from my colleagues and I'd agree with them without hesitation!

SmileyCentral.com Ok, I shall stop being mean :)

I wish him all the best for his future undertaking.
