It happened to me in Leicester. There was this family standing near me, nice little Mallu family, talking rapidly. And I had already decided what I had to pick from that shelf, but I stood there just listening to the familiar high and low notes of our sing-song language...Didnt realise how much I missed it, till I became a shameless listener...And the best part is for some reason they didnt figure me to be a Mallu, I guess, they just kept on talking without the feeling of conscious behaviour that accompanies when you think someone is over hearing you...:)Journomusehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03637288687087961594noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6099822287006472886.post-84387317475654405122010-03-11T15:16:34.632+05:302010-03-11T15:16:34.632+05:30nice...i cant get over the way u write... ur eye f...nice...i cant get over the way u write... ur eye for detail makes even 'everyday places and people' seem so full of intrigue... interesting enough to be movie characters :) get down to writing that book... :D...Mayuricanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6099822287006472886.post-9736247856161065102010-03-11T15:14:16.297+05:302010-03-11T15:14:16.297+05:30You cant be blamed dips... you did that for a livi...You cant be blamed dips... you did that for a living for nearly a decade and earned fame,money and onair kudos for it:-)Jency Jacobhttp://www.jencyjacob.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6099822287006472886.post-34708541839886757582010-03-06T19:53:53.451+05:302010-03-06T19:53:53.451+05:30i havent read this but i like doing this too...esp...i havent read this but i like doing this too...especially with friends around..its whole lot of fun :DShailendra Mohannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6099822287006472886.post-31233163401777357592010-03-06T19:10:07.676+05:302010-03-06T19:10:07.676+05:30Most people watch.

I still have my notebooks filled not only with descriptions of my fellow travellers, but also transcripts of conversations they were having; and believe me, some of those conversations ar stupifyingly dull (which is why I was writing them down). <br /><br />I see that the British comedienne Catherine Tate has a character who falls into precisely the same brainless category as some of my erstwhile travelling companions, and I've often wondered whether she too had a notebook in her hand as she commuted through Essex.Paul Nixonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12354531380984476532noreply@blogger.com
