VERVE: Sugar and Spice - Vish Dhamija
http://vishdhamija.blogspot.com/2010/08/sugar-and-spice-vish-dhamija.html
Friday, August 13, 2010. Sugar and Spice - Vish Dhamija. It's not sugar. And, it's not spice. I call them sugar n' spice because the only flavours my tastebuds can discern remind me of how basic I am. My sense of gustation can, still, only recognise elementary tastes - sweet, bitter, sour, salty and spicy. Fine Oak" 10 year old (. Like all single malts, all you need is a good glass. To enjoy it. No water. No rocks. No soda. No mixer. A word of caution: please enjoy responsibly, :-). August 15, 2010.

Friday, September 11, 2009. Portugal Holiday [Aug 29 - Sep 4, 2009] - Vish Dhamija. Everything that could go wrong, did. The morning alarm didn't ring; we missed the train to the airport; forgot the navigator we had borrowed from a friend; dis-remembered. To pack swimsuits and totally missed carrying the paper-part [why do we have one? Of the UK Driving Licence, without which Hertz had clearly stated that they wouldn't give us the car. Is a must - the cafes. Resting place of Vasco. Mercifully, the Hertz ...

For generations, people never wanted to drive a white car. Why? Because it was meant for the not so well-to-do folks - remember the white van man? Have you heard of ostentatious austerity?

VERVE: Gems in My Neighbourhood: Vish Dhamija
http://vishdhamija.blogspot.com/2009/10/gems-in-my-neighbourhood-vish-dhamija.html
Saturday, October 24, 2009. Gems in My Neighbourhood: Vish Dhamija. Yes gems, if you like books [and art]. The Bookshop on the Heath sells second-hand, used, out-of-print and rare books, but that's not all. You can find posters, prints, postcards, magazines, old maps, art, et al. in the store. A visit to the shop takes you down memory lane of a bygone era when Sean Connery was Bond, James Bond. Even in these days of the Internet, Amazon. I strongly recommend every book lover to walk down Tranquil Vale.

As the architect of the plan. Amazing, how a well directed movie can make you bite your nails - even after 65 years – and anticipate an alternative ending, even when you know the outcome. A must watch film. Click here to watch the trailer. Thursday, December 31, 2009. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Hollywood; Oscars; ...
