Ravel - Bolero - Daniel Barenboim - Berliner Phil. Pt. 1

I first came a cross this musical piece back in 198...ish when I saw for the first time the movie by Claude Lelouch "les un et les autres".
English title of Bolero in reference to the Maurice Ravel piece heard in film ....since then Bolero by Ravel has become my favourite musical piece of all the time.....

This was the piece Carlos and I (we) choose as a background for our wedding, back in 1996.

@ 3 Monkeys @ Singapore
Kumar is a stand comedy Indian transvestite, that really knows about Singapore's greatest "secrets" and jokes about them, very political and perverse he laughs about being Singaporean and the island. He is the only person in Singapore that is allow to "mock" about the government and the politics in Singapore by government authorization...but can't mention the primer minister's name in public....

@ mrt....in Bangkok....both monorail and MRT (mass rapid transport) are fine in Bangkok the only issue I found is that they belong to different companies so they operate separately which means u can't buy one ticket for all as u could do in London underground and over ground system.....but who is complaining??? not me....

Boats is a way of public transport in the river Phraya at Bangkok, excellent, very reliable and cheap..while u on the move u can enjoyed an excellent view of the city ans share with locals the flavour of the city rush.

tuk tuks....a flexible way of moving from one place to another in Bangkok, no too reliable in terms of cost...u have to negotiate the price before u get in...and start praying about ur health and safety while is driving...never as bad as the unsafely in Saigon - Viet Nam..but pretty much insecure...
good fun thou.

@dr. manu......si usted esta en lo cierto, adicionalmente a la historia de Colombia, para mi este lugar en particular me trae muchos recuerdos de infancia....mesclados con los olores de las frutas en el mercado. con los gritos de los vendedores y el ruido de los caminiones y carros alrededor.....
Gracias por venir a visitar...

Yes, @dr, manu. you are absolutely right, in addition to Honda (in Colombia) history, for me , this place also represents loads of childhood memories mixed with the smells of fruits within the market, the shouting of the vendors and the noise of all the trucks and cars that surrounding it.....
Thanks for passing by...

Flying over lorong 41 Geylang my new home

We rented a nice "Shop house" in Singapore (Colonial style 2 story house) in a very lively area and about 10 minutes cycling from the school. It is nice, got character (as opposed to the horrible "condos" our state agent was trying hard to persuade us to rent) and the "right size"

my window is open so i could go in or fly from it.:)

This is a zone we called studio...

Glasgow george square


Glasgow george square, originally uploaded by lulugaia.

In October this year the Headline Publishing Group is publishing '25 Years of Taggart', the official companion to the long-running Scottish police drama, which is made by SMG TV Productions in Glasgow and screened on ITV. The book is a comprehensive, illustrated guide to the stars, the storylines and the history of the show and is fully supported by SMG and ITV.

One of the chapters of the book will be devoted to Glasgow, as an extra 'star' of the show. It will look at how the city has been represented in the show, and the various locations that have been used over the years. They want to use one of my photos of 'George Square' in Glasgow, in this chapter.....
I am really please!!!!!!!!

......but some of you will say that this is not true....
and you are right, cause there are people with different combinations between the above
.......and there are others like me.....neither like one or the other.....;)

Originally uploaded by lulugaia.
Yes, indeed is hot....but since when a solution of heat is to live under the earth?....could this way be cheaper than other ways?...maybe, but in other hand those tunnels and passways are being use as shops.....so you are force to live and buy in an underground world...
there is something I don't like about this and about here but i have not being able to discern it yet .....well maybe is better that way...

World is becoming really small.....


my bonus
Originally uploaded by lulugaia.
The world for me is becoming really small lately
….what are the chances to be name as juror as British citizen duty, and on court, the first day of the trial, while the prosecutors are reading the evidence on the case, just realise that you know the guy who is sitting in front of 15 jurors as is being accused?
Well this is what happen to me today in a court in Glasgow….I can’t comment more because of confidentiality but believe me it did not feel right at all
…it was a bit (just a wee bit like in the movies) but the difference was that this was very serious stuff
I am glad at the end I was left to go by the judge and I did not get too involved…
I just hope the guy does not come after me…because if I could recognised him is for sure he recognised me too… brrrrrr

Originally uploaded by lulugaia.
A perfect liberty style place, Bar Victoria is one of my favourites places to have a “snosh” (Snob + Posh) "apperitivo" at most traditional Italian style at Milan...
The place which is situated very close to La Scala guaranties you to find very fine people indeed…just look at the picture below......

latte with almond and chocolate @ tinderbox glasgow

Nearly 6 months living in Italy took me to learn how to call this kind of coffee: a latte machiatto...
I had the opportunity to practice this way of calling my favourite kind of coffee there @ Milan for another extra 6 months ...After coming back to Glasgow, it took me two seconds to go back to the real latte...

Feliz 2007 DoubleYou
