Termenung
Cuaca tak menentu di bumi Lancaster.Sekejap hujan, sekejap berhenti.
Jiwa juga tak menentu. Fikiran melayang layang.
Rindukan keluarga yg jauh di Malaysia.
Anyway,
Selamat Hari Jadi Emak.
Semoga sentiasa dikurniakan kesihatan yang baik dan dipanjangkan umur.
Amin.

Glasgow Short Trip
Last 3 weeks, i received a discount coupon from Travelodge. They will give GBP15 discount if we stay between 22 Oct - 7 Nov. Then i suggest to my wife to go for a short holiday eventhough I knew that she's very busy now. My wife agreed (kalo bercuti n shopping laju je) but where? Since we never go to Scotland so I suggest to go to Glasgow.
We went to Glasgow last Friday and coming back to Lancaster on Saturday. Well, Glasgow is a big city and it's easy to find halal food too. We went to several places but didn't managed to cover the whole city.

Our 2nd Anniversary
Dua tahun lps, jam 9.00 mlm kami selamat diijabkabulkan oleh Tok Kadi di Gemas. So hari ni, kitorg decided to celebrate our anniversary secara kecil-kecilan. Tp kt mana la pulak. At last, celebrate kat The Moghuls Indian Restaurant. Sbb apa? Sbb kt sini kalau pegi before 7pm, semua main dishes dpt half price. Lps amik Irfan kt nursery kitorg pun terus pegi restoran tu.
For starters, kitorg amik Lamb Chop(kecik je) and Mushroom Pakora (mcm cekodok je).Ingatkan nak amik gmbr, tp lapar punya psl, dah abis baru teringat. Then for the main dishes, kitorg amik King Prawn Curry and Chicken Curry (Indian Restaurant, apa lagi, curry je la) with Egg Fried Rice.
Dan kami pulang dengan perut yang kenyang ( x brp sedap pun actually, mknn Malaysia lagi best ).

Raya di Lancaster
2 hari b4 raya demam. Ingatkan 1- 2 hari je. Smpi hari raya pun demam. Sembahyang raya pun ponteng. Sedih betul. Ptg raya tu gagahkan jugak pergi open house kt umah Malaysian. Ada 3 rumah semuanya. Malam tu sepatutnya kerja, tp belum ada kekuatan. Dan akhirnya cuti lg seminggu smpi demam elok. Apalah nasib. Dah la raya kat Lancaster ni, demam pulak tu. Xde nikmat langsung.
Minggu ni dah start keje. Rasa OK sikit compared to last week. Tp selepas 2 minggu cuti, confirm la dah malas nak pegi kerja. Kerja ptg pun dah kena transfer to Morecambe. Travel should be around 20mins, tp since pegi waktu org balik keje, total jd 50mins driving. Kerja 2 jam je. Itupun x jem sgt. Kalo jem giler? Berbaloi ke? Hishh..Lagilah malasnya.

Salam Aidilfitri
Diam tak diam, tinggal beberapa hari lagi nak raya. Sekejap pulak rasa puasa ni. Tahun ni first time beraya di perantauan. Last year, walaupun lewat kami sampai Malaysia petang raya pertama. Tahun ni, hanya beraya di Lancaster. Takde ketupat, lemang dan rendang masakan mak. Xde kedengaran riuh rendah suara anak anak saudara. Rindu betul dengan diorang. I blame my wife actually sebab hari tu dah ajak balik raya kat Malaysia, tp dia xnak. Tp bila tgk ramai org kat Lancaster ni balik beraya 2 minggu lepas, baru la sibuk nak blk Malaysia. Jangan harap la, tiket pun dah mahal. Walauapapun harap2 tahun depan dah dapat beraya di Malaysia semula. Di kesempatan ini, kami sekeluarga ingin mengucapkan Selamat Hari Raya Aidilfitri serta maaf zahir dan batinkepada semua yang singgah di blog ni.

Say NO to Kwik Fit
Went to Kwik Fit Lancaster today to recharge my car air cond. This is my first time dealing with this garage (probably my last time).
These are our conversations :
Me : How much if I want to recharge my air cond?
Mech A : GBP45, but we have to check first to make sure there's no leaking. If there's a leaking,
we won't recharge and you dont have to pay.
Me : Hmm..(sounds good, very good service) OK, that's fine. Can we do it now?
Mech A : Yes, sure. May i have your key?
Give him the key and he drove my car inside the garage. Open the hood, plug in everythings. Time to key in my car details into the computer to make sure the "check" is accurate.
Mech A : Bla..bla..bla..what model is it?
Me : (Felt something already)Ermm..e46..320i..
Mech A : Ok..
Suddenly his friend came to us.
Mech B : Its not E46. Its E36.
Me : Haaa.. no this is E46.
Mech B : (He talk to Mech A) OK, just put E46. Dont blame us if its blow. But he got E36 lights
on it?
Me : What?(Is he blind or something?) Excuse me, this is not E36. E36 is the previous model?
Mech B : No, E46 only have single curve on the headlights.
I think he meant the E46 Facelift model. I take out my hp, and start google about E46 and E36.
Found the E46 Facelift model photo.
Me : Did you means that this is the E46?
Mech B : Yes. It is.
Me : Ok, but do you know that this car have a same shape with my car? The different is
only front look. Its because, mine is E46 pre facelift, and this photo is E46 facelift.
Mech B : No, listen to me, I'm a mechanic, so I know better than you.
Me : Huh? Who cares you are mechanic or not? I also know about cars. (A bit temper, but still
can smile.)
Then I google E36 2 doors photo. Show him the photo.
Mech B : Oh, this is not E36. E36 got 4 doors like your car.
Me : Then, what model is this?
Mech B : This E32. Because it only have 2 doors.
Me : Oh my God!!! (E32 is 1986's 7 series). Come on, you should go home and study about cars
then you can become a mechanic. One more, why dont people called E46 M3 with E42 M3?
I think you got confused with new model which is E92. (Lucky he didnt say that my car is
E40 which is not even in the BMW car list.)
Mech B : ........(no answer)
The point is, how could he becoming a mechanic? How to order a car parts if he got mix ups with the car model?
After a while, my car is done. Mech A already recharge the air cond and he said there is no leaking.
Hopefully the computer result is true.
Thanks guys. But this would be my last time go to your garage. Dangerous.

Conversations with Health Advisor
Q: Doctor, I've heard that cardiovascular exercise can prolong life. Is this true?
A: Your heart is only good for so many beats, and that's it. Don't waste it on exercise.
Everything wears out eventually. Speeding up your heart will not make you live longer. That's like saying you can extend the life of your car by driving it faster.
Want to live longer? Take a nap.
Q: Should I cut down on meat and eat more fruits and vegetables?
A: You must grasp logistical efficiencies. What does a cow eat? Hay and corn!
And what are these? Vegetables. So a steak is nothing more than an efficient mechanism of delivering vegetables to your system. Need grain? Eat chicken.
Beef is also a good source of field grass (green leafy vegetable).
And a pork chop can give you 100% of your recommended daily allowance of vegetable products.
Q: Should I reduce my alcohol intake?
A: No, not at all. Wine is made from fruit. Brandy is distilled wine. That means they take the water out of the fruity bit so you get even more of the goodness that way. Beer is also made out of grain. Bottoms up!
Anyway, 1% of traffic accidents are caused by drunk drivers. So people who don’t drink are very dangerous because they cause 99% of traffic accidents.
Q: How can I calculate my body/fat ratio?
A: Well, if you have a body and you have fat, your ratio is one to one.
If you have two bodies, your ratio is two to one, etc.
Q: What are some of the advantages of participating in a regular exercise program?
A: Can't think of a single one, sorry. My philosophy is: No Pain ... Good!
Q: Aren't fried foods bad for you?
A: YOU'RE NOT LISTENING!!! .... Foods are fried these days in vegetable oil.
In fact, they're permeated in it. How could getting more vegetables be bad for you?
Q: Will sit-ups help prevent me from getting a little soft around the middle?
A: Definitely not! When you exercise a muscle, it gets bigger.
You should only be doing sit-ups if you want a bigger stomach.
Q: Is chocolate bad for me?
A: Are you crazy? HELLO … Cocoa beans! Another vegetable!!!
It's the best feel-good food around!
Q: Is swimming good for your figure?
A: If swimming is good for your figure, explain whales to me.
Q: Is getting in-shape important for my lifestyle?
A: Hey! 'Round' is a shape!
Well, I hope this has cleared up any misconceptions you may have had about food and diets.
And remember: 'Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways - Chardonnay in one hand, chocolate in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming, 'WOO HOO, what a Ride!'
AND.....
For those of you who watch what you eat, here's the final word on nutrition and health. It's a relief to know the truth after all those conflicting nutritional studies.
1. The Japanese eat very little fat and suffer fewer heart attacks than Americans.
2. The Mexicans eat a lot of fat and suffer fewer heart attacks than Americans.
3. The Chinese drink very little red wine and suffer fewer heart attacks than Americans.
4. The Italians drink a lot of red wine and suffer fewer heart attacks than Americans.
5. The Germans drink a lot of beer and eat lots of sausages and fats and suffer fewer heart attacks than Americans.
CONCLUSION
1. Eat and drink what you like.
2. Speaking American English is apparently what kills you.
3. 'Today’ is a gift. That is why it is called ‘The Present’.

Bercuti Ke Holland
Khamis lepas kami bertolak ke Holland. Semalam baru smpi di Lancaster semula. Actually, my sister in law pun balik Malaysia Khamis tu. So alang-alang flight dia transit kat Amsterdam, teman lah dia smpi sana. Tiket pun xde lah mahal sangat. Kebetulan ada 1 family dari Lancaster pun nk melawat kakak dia yg mmg duk kat Amsterdam. Cantik la tu. Dia pun ajak stay kat umah kakak dia, pun OK jugak. Save budget. Hehe...3 hari duk kt sana bukanlah hari yang panjang memandangkan byk tmpt yg boleh pegi. Kitorg pun smpt g few places je. Tmpt yg best pun bukannya dekat2..sumernya jauh2..sib baik la ada sorg Indo ni jd tour guide kitorg. Dia kata, dia duk Amsterdam since 1969 lg. Berbasikal dari Medan smpi Amsterdam. He took 1 year and 2 months utk smpi ke Amsterdam. Kenapa dia pilih Amsterdam? Kenapa bawa diri ke Belanda yang pernah menjajah Indonesia selama 'ntah' berapa tahun. Jawapannya....ntah. Lupe nk tanye :)
