Chilly Sheffield

Z and David, at Thai Punna



Lovebirds. :)

A home, up Sheffield hills


Another one




Nice view of flatlands from here

Sheffield sky
 


Where I lepak, Meadowhall Centre
 


On a cold day, these are heavenly!
 


Costa ni macam UK punya Kopitiamlah
 


Meadowhall carpark.Macam One Utama sikit, kan?


It's 8 C in Sheffield as I type this.Well, our room is nicely heated and warm.But try go outside without proper warm clothes, it's winter, folks! And I'm not a winter person.Never ever.Remember my 4 feet snow in Ithaca and the frozen waterfalls and creeks? Yeah, you know the feeling. :)



Z is still busy getting her ways around.We should just let her be.Eugene is right to say that I went through the same thing and it was the best of my life (not really..it got better! Haha). But Nik and I went to explore Sheffield further.There's a mixed kinda landscapes here.The decaying old Sheffield and the new and lively and affluent Sheffield, back on its feet.It has very much become a university city (some 26 thousands of students here).Take these kids away and the city would be a dead one.It's wonderful seeing so many young bright people around us.


We found the richer area along Fulwood Road (thanks to David who we were picking up to dine with us at Thai Punna on London Road).David is my London friend's son.Bapaknya orang putih, maknya Chindian.He's doing his Master's in Econs at Sheffield.Bolehlah dia tolong tengok2kan Z nanti.Baik budaknya.


We found our halal KFC branch at the Arena on the way to Motorpoint Arena.Although JAKIM says it's OK to eat stunned animals (before they were slaughtered the Islamic way), Shamsul posted a videoclip on the fb about how preparing the Islamic way would not be hurting the animals..they also need to submit through ayat2 Allah, kan? If you stun them, where is the submission (like you tak redho sembelih binatang tu) and we never know what's in the stunning item.Macam2lah.Best is to avoid if unsure.


Bukan sedap sangat pun ayam stunned nih. :)
