I was working in UK (Outskirts of London) for nearly 2.5 YRs and everyday I use travel between workplace and home. I was fun being there and I enjoed it. Southern UK has got lot of desi ( punjabis,tamils, pakis, srilankans...etc..) but they are generally refred as Indians only. So one will find being at home, for sure. Working culture and atmosphere are by and large same across UK. Lot of Indians are into IT , a common phenomenon these days. Travelling in the London city is very good ,especially through tubes (Underground Trains) that works round the clock, 24 hrs. I had travelled across UK to places like Edinburgh , ( SCotland ), Birmingham,Dover,Wimbledon,Southampton. People are generally social but seems like they trying to keep us out. To some extent they are not for others /strangers coming and taking their jobs/lifestyle.. THe major attraction here in LOndon is Madame Tussart's museum bettr known as Wax museum. I was just amazed to see all my photographs along with celebrities like Gandhiji,Merlin Manroe,rajiv / indira gandhi, ARnold, Martina, Viv Richards,sachin,amitab, Diana, Beethoven, Einstein, Gorbhacheva and array of such personalites ...all thanks to this museum's wax dolls..Accurate and exact replicas.. Museums are at its best in London. THey are just superb in display and maintaining antique items, I would say. For Music lovers, there is this Symphony park better known as Royal Albert Hall, where Masteros like Beethoven,Bach have given performance.. When it comes to Games, Nonbody can forget that UK is Cricket's birth place(but often these days Football is everywhere, but cricket, h'mm not that commonly played..It has world's finest grounds Lords,Leeds, Edgbaston etc.. WImbledon is a dream village for evey Tennis fan. The way the tournament is conducted and this otherwise sleepy hamlet gets prepared during the tournament days is a real treat and interesting experience to be there in the centre court. If not for anything, atleast to witness as how many dozens of our valuables and precious items that British took away from us when they were ruling us for 3 centuries...one must visit Natural History Museum, British National museum...SOme of our belongings there(very well maintained, and dsipalyed..kudos to them) are Our COntroversial and priceless Kohinoor Diamond, Tipu's sword (edinburogh), Srirangam Renganathar Temple's original Layout model in Pure Gold, Priceless Cosmic Dancing nataraja made of panchaloka metal, Krishna's viswaroopa posture etc..etc.. to name a few.. They were Royal in every walks of life..take a look into Buckingham Palace..U will realise it. Uk has got World's Clock..the bench mark starts from a place called Greenwich Meridian which is 0' 00' (lattitude & longitude) Besides these,, Thames river Ride & Tower Bridge,Picadilly circus,BigBen, west Minister Abbey, Parliament squre, British Airway's London Eye(A giant wheel rider) are mandatorily visual treats to eyes & mind. Cycling is my hobby and I use to go for a cycle ride , a better way to travel and economic too. Watching huge Aircrafts taking off and landing and just witnessing the business at London Heathrow, world's busiest airport itself an experience.. THere are many packets in UK where Asians(not indians, but people from our neighboring country across Kashmir) create lot of trouble for the localites and because of this, they are not comfortable with Asians at all. These are uncultured useless people create such a bad feeling and earn bad names for Idians too. There are lot many indian origins who are mighty Lords of Houses of comons, industrial tycoons and people who plays substatial role in UK's economy development.. Its these people who made UK the country who gave highest /maximum charity money during Gujrat Earthquake!! There is a 24 Hr FM Hindi Radio station and tamil station!! Kudos to all of them who are runing the show!! Some quick answers to ur questions... What time of year did you travel? Was there for 2.5Yrs..Best time to travel is Jun/July/Aug their Summer timeWhat did you like or dislike about your trip? I liked Travel/stay/Lifestyle Dislike - Kind of Bossism attitude of them What would you do differently next time? Would like to visit Ireland and Wales For whom would you recommend this trip? Anybody who wants to know more about how india was during their regime here and how gr8 to be a citizen of such a gr8 country(India)..Globe trotters...
