11,12,13 & 14th Jun

11th
Boarded Emirates for London. After over 9 hours in the sky and stay of about 2 hours at Dubai for change to A800/500, we landed at London Gatwick airport. While flying we saw Rustam, Buddha in traffic jam and Ye jindigi, fairly good movies. We have not seen movies for years. Curiously we have been seeing them on air when we travel to Pilku.
The flight landed on time and we reached home at about 9 pm.Everyone was thrilled to see us. So were we.
12th
Long walks, Starbucks coffee, chats, pleasant weather are the main features of our relaxed living in London.
13th
After loss of majority, Tories are trying to settle down. They have aligned with the Northern Ireland Democratic Unionist Party to prop up majority. May was given a loud show of support as she pledged to rectify her blunders. Vilification of DUP is the latest sign that faith is viewed with hostility by the liberal electorate.
Labour and conservatives held talks on soft Brexit.
Retirement is not just the option in British society.
A research has shown that going to sleep and waking at approximately the same time is as important as number of hours one sleeps.
Spent ometime in Southfield library.
14th
Celebrated  Abhishree's birthday at Zero hours. Hosted dinner for Abhishree. Read out a poem, written by me on her first birthday.
"1st birthday, 14/06/2003 :
On the first Birthday of Abhishree
A granddaughter was born on this day a year ago.
We named her Abhishree.
In physical form she was like her father
In spirit goddess Lakshmi
With her came fortune, good luck and jubilation.
A Shandar Beti of Shandar parents.
She smiles like a mystic.
Her eyes are like black lotus.
She enjoys music.
Like fish she is happy in water
Stroll in her pram is her only hobby.
All of us love her, bless her on this day.
May she live long shining like the morning star forever,dazzling & beautiful away from darkness of evil.

"Abhishree was born today on 14.06.2002 at 6.55 pm GMT (11.25 IST  ) at Wellington, South West London,UK,15 years back. We prayed for a healthy, long and prosperous life to her. Venita did Puja and distributed 'khir' to all.
