Morning in SJ

Still groggy .. It's 0940 in Subang Jaya while Ann & the gang sleep
blissfully (hopefully) at 0240 in Egham.

Despite late night supper with Erry - maggi goreng + sup kambing +
tosai, the tummy growls.

Terima lah, murtabak RM10.

London Jam

RMT (the National Union of Rail, Maritime and Transport Workers) decided to go ahead with the strike. Thanks to Bob Crow, the General Secretary. Amazing! Tube drivers earn between 38,000 & 60,000 p.a. and yet they want an inflation busting increment of 5%. All this when people like us don't know whether we're gonna keep our job or not next week.

Reached Waterloo around 0830. No tube was working except Northern Line. Screw the tubes. Buses were full too. Taxis make truck loads of money today. Me, I decided to give my pedometer something to do. Equipped with my walking shoes & Norah Jones, I strolled to work today - from Waterloo along the south bank, crossed the Millenium Bridge (for the first time, can you believe it!) and admired St Paul's Cathedral. Got in 45 minutes & 6,000 steps later.

Now, I have to do that again tomorrow. Pray it won't rain. FU Bob Crow.
