Cambridge Fireworks!

After the haloween it is now time for teh spectacular fireworks. The council of cambridge with some sponsors orgainses the spectacular firework after teh haloween day and most of the times it just coincides with Diwali - the festival of lights. May be because of strings historical reasons the fireworks show might have started here in the UK almost during the same time as diwali.

Last year I was there in the grouds quite early with couple of friends and witnessed the fireworks show from the right position. But I didnt have my camera at that time. This time with a SONY camera and a SONY Camcorder ( I didnt take my camcorder) I didnt get the correct position. My friend and I were late and before we reached the fireworks had started and so we jus stopped by in a bridge to see the show.

Though my SONY camera didnt cpature the amazing display, my eye captured it and it is in my heart :-)

Going Green!

It has been almost 15 days now, I am cycling to work everyday. Bought a new shockwave XT 675 7-geared mountain bike:-) to be honest I switched gears only for a couple of days and afte rthat I am drving in the same gear. The bike has a hi-tensile steel frame,front suspension and disc brakes.

I am enjoying riding a bike after a long time and as my home is just 1.4 miles away from work, it is not very tiring. As the roads here are good and most of the roads have a dedicated cycle lane, it is not that difficullt.

So.... I am contributing to preserve our environment by not emitting co2. Are you ?????

Free View

After a really long wait now I am viewing the Free view channels :) there are awesome lot of channels and I really wonder how many subscribe for these pay channels when there are more free channels.
Yesterday (saturday) I was at home for teh most of teh day doing some office work. In the evening went to the retail park to buy teh SCART lead for the TV, then to Sainsburys and from there to my friends place.

I watched "அழகி" movie. I have been wanting to watch that movie for a long time but me without prompting my friend brought the DVD and played the movie. Nandita Das is really awesome and a beautiful actress.I dont think anybody would disagree with me.

Happy to set the TV up and browse through chanels. I will not miss my favourite programs here on. Wish me happy watching ;)

புதிய தகவல்

கடந்த இரண்டு மூன்று நாட்களாக மற்ற வேலைகளில் கவனம் செலுத்த வேண்டிய கட்டாயம் வந்திருக்கிறது. ஆகையால் ப்ளோக் செய்ய முடியவில்லை. எனினும் இந்த தமிழ் மொழி பெயர்ப்பு கருவி என் கவனத்தை மிகவும் ஈர்த்துள்ளது.
இப்போது என் வீட்டில் ஒரு புதிய பொழுது போக்கை கண்டுகொண்டேன்.மிகவும் நல்ல விஷயம் - பல புத்தகங்கள் உள்ளன - நான் மிகவும் விரும்பி படிக்கும் புத்தகங்களும் உள்ளன.ஆகையால் வீட்டில் கணினி உபயோகப் படுத்துவதை குறைக்க வேண்டும் என முடிவு செய்துள்ளேன்.மீண்டும் பிறகு சந்திப்போம்.
