Pole dancing of another kind

It wasn't the best kind of Fridays but thank goodness for these little bright spots that have kept me going.

A walk out in the sun. In the UK, sun (maybe for me - after food) is the best cure for melancholy. Definitely an assurance for me that summer has finally arrived.
 
Greeted by people relaxing on the greens. The chill out seems to have taken away the stress of the usual fast-paced business activities happening within those cool skyscrapers. A sight that did uplift my spirit.



Now, wait a minute. Seems like more than a usual summer chill out. They all seems to be watching something. Hmm...background music. So I c. It's a performance of some sort. Wow!

I need a camera. Ask and you shall receive. Thanks to my friend and his fanciful mobile that came with a super good camera. (in case you are wondering - nope it isn't i=phone but accordingly to him, his beats i-phone hands down). Anyway, these photos - courtesy of his mobile cam.



Let's take a closer look. We were just in time to catch the end of the performance. Snap a few photos of these flying dancers on pole before they descended back on the ground. Dunno what I had just caught (for that mere 2 minutes but my another friend cheekily described it as 'Pole dancing' of another kind.



And if you were expecting some other MORE exciting photos..err..sorry to disappoint you.

我尝试感觉伦敦的夏天

After a year of 'disappearance', I am not about to continue that uncompleted Cornwall journey! Sorry folks but who wanna hear stale news anyway!

Alright! Jade blogger is back to her business with a fresh uplift of her page of course! Hope u all like the new image. And to those of my friends (close to being extinct?? Yah..i m talking about those without any facebook account :P ), there's no more excuses for not knowing what I've been up to!

So what's up recently? Me turning on the heater still before retiring to bed? Bizarre at this time of the year??
Yah - it's the.........
不正常的伦敦夏天! 感觉夏天...我尝试感觉夏天...谁能够确定它已经到达了吗?

Translations???

Abnormal summer in London! Feel summer...I (seriously trying..still) to embrace this 2010 summer...but who can ascertain if summer is really here? Knock knock...??? I badly in need for summer and I mean REAL summer! Just a stimulated bee on a bright and cheery mug can juz provide that temporary relieve...



I detest the drastic one day up and another day super low weather. My poor sundresses are still buried right at the back of my wardrobe while my winter wear are undoubtedly indecisive about their next move - storage or not? Mind u - I am actually speaking during summer! It's SUMMER where Spring (which doesn't exactly feel like one - at least for me this 2010) seems to have quietly flighted.

Flowers did bloom and trees did get their new green coats (actually only some trees). The one outside my home is still quite bare. It's only recently that I noticed some leaves spouting. And strangely, those aren't in green.

The quiet flight of my 2010 Spring indeed. Before I can wipe out my camera to capture those flora & fauna, they also seems to have reached their end of their life span (OK - I kept on forgetting my camera too). Only 3 lonely flora fotos.





And another 2 more attempts of capturing cherry blossoms (blur and taken from a moving car). There were loads and lots of them...it's just me! I kept on forgetting to take any fotos!






Alright! Don't say I never try! Here's a delightful one capturing that very essence of Spring!



Ciao for now while I hunt for my coat. Don't need to dig that ears - Yes - coat it is! And I re-emphasise again - this is summer time in London.
