pavithran

Well what a topic to blog .. people might wonder anyways here it goes.

I grew up my hair so long that I couldn't bear it much .. hence had to go to the barber. But the shops timings are always early like 8 -3 or so which I couldnt make .

Hence I waited till I went mad of the hair :)

Today morning I got up to end this suffering walked in the rain to the cash machine on shirley high street. It was raining which is irritating .

As I knocked at the barber shop there was osme delay in opening the door which I definitely didnt understand but she opened to tell me that I have to come back at 11:30 as she is tied up with customer.. huh 2 more hours ok chalega .. hence I went to her and again she told me to wait inside. I was wondering of the cold treatment but it is because the seats in the front room were for drying hair OMG reminded me of movies where ladies sit and wait !
Its a mixed sex salon but its mostly for women .

After a minute of me trying to read sun she came and asked me to sit in a small chair and asked how long I want it to be I told short and wow she didnt ask any questions she went on !!

I asked some questions like

*How many people come ?
*Is it mostly ladies ?
*about the other barber shop
She asked if I stay at this place

Well the haircut was very smoothly handled .. after all its a ladies touch and I was shocked when I learned that it was the cheapest haircut I had in england ! @ 5£ it was worth the money :)

Tomorrow is going to be either exciting or dampening more my spirits. I am not sure how its going to end but all I wish is it ends on a happy note .

The day was weird .

I went late to hartley and was sitting there for sometime while I got message from stella to come to zepler any time.

I went downstairs to read guardian , and it really felt good reading the guardian because I hadn't been reading it for a week and though the news were not that good ( immigration )

I then walked to zepler where she was sitting at the laptop corner. I went and complained how I didnt like sitting there now a days because of the noise.

Then we started discussing the website . I told that I had mailed the requirements long back and they didnt reply . i then sat on a machine and started writing what to do now. she was asking all the time about PHP which I told is not necessary .

When I went to wordpress, no we dont want a blog ! I told her to wait and then we wrote down what pages we need for the website like the home page,officers page and videos page . We finally got the content on it.

Then due to that damned AC we had to shift our place to other side. She was co concerned about her chinky mates ( excuse my wordings)
then we got the presidents online and started discussing on themes and content. They havent been able to add much .

There was this funny instance of stellas machine not booting up. She was not concerned and asked my laptop which lucky for her was working cause it didnt work and I had to run an upgrade and strangely in hartley both wireless and sound got disabled ( debian sid is always fun to use .. with every update breaking stuff)

Then she was too concerned about logging to skype from my machine . I assured that I dont give that machine to anyone hence I cant mean any harm to myself ie also her ! Her friend who bugged her in FB now started bugging in skype LOL I typed 'laters' after some useless conversation , I told that I was concerned about the machine and she faced the reality . It just wont boot up.

Then after some online shops and a phone call to one repair shop, she wanted to go home. Well we walked back to bus stop actually she ran while I walked to get my bike which I had to run on 6th gear as the gears were not functioning :(

I toiled back to shirley where started the storm . Oh my god I was thrown down by the wind as the st james road was perpendicular to wind direction as the wind hit the entire frame it was strong enough to throw me on road. I bicycled with difficulty in shirley high street as the wind was opposite.. OMG never ever in my life such strong winds hit me.

Then came home to see how hard the wind was making sounds like ghost . Morning I was told that it was 80 miles/hour and it was a storm .. YEAH I survived it :)

Yes lived there for 2 months. It has been a BIG experience .

Yeah its been long since I blogged . :(

Looks like I just forgot the blog world LOL anyways was so caught up by things that I felt not to blog .

Well I am right now surrounded by 3 people who speak foriegn language .. but they are very friendly .

This image below should tell lot of things !




Some days I went to the walk yeah the same solent . Solent is undergoing changes with a new place for harbour . So the views wouldn't be the same :( 



But the biirds are the same . Hope they could come to the calm mayflower park next summer . As by 3 months the boats will arrive carrying people and other nuisance which could put off the birds :(


Today Morning I went past Bitterne river and you know what a strange incident happened!!

Remember in india we used to feed the hens or crows by throwing left over rice. Yeah you wont believe a desi women couldn't let go her culture this is what she did !!



These are bread pieces !!!



Well they kept on fighting for the bread. I just hope that the bread has no fungi or other bacteria. But why did that desi throw it .. because the breaad went bad huh :(

Wow this is just amazing .

A 40 minute chat with the help desk person of ECS made me learn hell lot of things . 

I am writing it here so that its all not lost

• RHEL bugs
• RHEL firefox
• RHEL vs Debian for lab
• Debian for a single machine
• Support for RHEL comes via Isolutions
• Isolutions tickets
• Working of whole issue tracking system - ( enterprise)
• Clusters
• VM
• CSLIB
• Vm server inside machines

Finally I leaned that we could have one more login !!

This time I walked on a route which I never walk completely :)

As I came out of St Margarets house oh no rains  reflecting the mood of BBC Solent reporter who was saying that autumn has arrived indeed . Hence went back to fetch my umbrella and walked to bus stop to see that the bus would take another 10 minutes hence I walked to portswood .

I was in a fix and I knew it cause by the time I walk to portswood the bus will arrive at portswood hence I cant catch the bus at portswood .

By the way why portswood ?

I had to buy this valve for which acts like an API between client and server err the pump and the bicycle tire . When I went to the bicycle shop and saw the three types of tube valves . Wow this is like writing cross platform app and running it on win,linux and mac :D

The shopkeeper asked me cash damn I went and bought the cash just in time to see the bus leaving for uni damn . I went and bought the valve and asked some questions on how to fill air in the tyre via a pump .

Well India you know people fill and we pay 1 rupee . Here I had a pump and for a valve I have to spend 2 £ ie 150 rupees :( 
I came to the cycle shed to fill my bicycle with air . After 2 unsuccesfull attempts I was able to fill but my hand ached like never before I had to take breaks before filling both tires .
By the way I found a cherry on route while I walked .



I then walked to hartley and washed my hands and some messing around with book search I was able to find all the books I wanted . I had to use a IIS machine for finding a book ( normally I just use the webcat machines ) 
Hence I sat down on ISS machine with the books and was there till the library was closed . I walked bck to highfield interchange where U1 would come by 10 minutes which I didnt like hence walked back to the bike shed .
En route a bush was beautiful though the pic now isn't as its taken at 9 PM


I tried fitting lights but damn there were no AAA batteries hence drove without lights and went pretty fast .. afterall its been many days since I rode my bike and also blogging fastly without easting the egg curry dinner which is cooked.
