Spring 2012

Weather
Still cold days at this Victorian era house in Crumpsall. Obviously the dampness lingers, especially after it rains. And we know only how often Manchester gets sunny skies..Coat and thick jackets belum boleh simpan lagi. Kadang kala mcm hampir nak snow pun ada in April.

Community
Seems that many post-grad (M'sian) families are leaving this area. Mostly finishing their studies. So, the M'sian community might shrink further coupled with the rising rentals, transportation and fuel costs. Might be cheaper to stay close to the city. Fadil, a good friend, relocated to a Hulme city apartment, 2 weeks after his house was broken into. Lost a laptop and tv amongst others. But still, a blessing in disguise... Must factor in the eastern european komuniti bila cari rumah sini

Cuti Sekolah 2 minggu
This spring break we visited the War Museum in Salford, watched a movie at the Lowry cinema, near mediacity and had day-trip to Albert Docks in Liverpool. Letih sbb banyaknya muzium situ but sempat jugak cari masjid nearby for Zohor. Oh, we also rode the Manchester Eye (Wheel?) on its last day of operation.
