20:03 Fast Chesham
Yes ladies and gentleman, another day working till late in the office. As I tell Preeti, those gifts I get for her from the poundshop, don't pay for themselves. Ok, technically the magic box which "technically" she owns, pays for them, but we are merely getting into detail...
4 people in the carriage today. The chap due west of me (never eat shredded wheat)..yep west of me, is watching something very interesting on his iPad. I wonder if he streaming something from Netflix? Probably not as we are current 70ft underground. Maybe I should go and sit next to him and offer him some popcorn.
So I decided to sign up to the free 1 month trial of Netflix (Thanks Kishan!) and spent from 10:03 to 11:07 last night watching a wide variety of content. I know you are very interested so I will expand on this a bit...started off with The Expendables, then after the first few fights and Stallone dialogue (yep, it has subs - Tick), I moved onto Top Gear. they have the last 20 series on there and I picked one at random. It was one of those specials where they went to Romania to find the best road in the world in a Ferrari, Aston Martin and Lamborghini. The streaming is actually not bad on the iPad, but a bit flaky on a 65" plasma. Finally, I noticed they had 2 pages of bollywood movies, so watched the starting of Race. The amount of spins that Merc SLK does in the intro as it collides with the steel pipes which became dislodged from the lorry was very impressive. No director... it didn't look at all as you had stitched the same scene today 10 times from different angles. Anyways, I got dizzy after that, so I went to sleep...
Due to my late running, I have no Evening standard to report. I can however substitute this section today and tell you that for dinner I'm having mug (no the green kata ones) and rotli. I thought about having a choro as I'm tired and it's easier to eat, but thought i will stick with good old rotli for today.
So at lunchtime, this bloke in Pret reminded me of Michael Jackson. He said, "Don't forget about Michael Jackson"...shamon
There are now 2 old dears who got on at Northwick Park and one of them is explaining that she has just come back from the hospital there and the doctor has told her that unfortunately she has only 18 months to live. Unfortunate!! the rest of us are all going die in December!
Today's advert is for the london boat show. Hold onto your hats folks, it's not only the BEST of boating but also water sports. Wowza...and kids go free. Might get Rajvi to go on her own...my treat.
So I need some advice gang, it's our 18yr Wedding Anniversary on the 25th, so any tips for what 'surprise' in an Indian accent I should think of? It's also 20 yrs for me this month at my company, and also, the next door neighbours aunty's dog is going to be..ok let's leave it there. Looking forward to your ideas and make sure they aren't too expensive, as I've got a few new gadgets I'm saving for this year.
Right, that's your lot, aw jaw.
Have a great sleep,
A small man eating mug tonight.

Tuesday 10th January 2012 - The Journey Home
19:06 Semi fast to Watford
Howdie doodie and sorry for being slightly late with today's blog. For some strange reason, they wanted me to do some work today, so had to finish off some bits and bots before heading to platform 2.
The train has a massive 7 passengers in my bit. Come on its only 7pm, where is everyone? I am stretching out, like a yoof would do and lying with my legs along where 3 passengers would normally sit. Before you say anything, your right..there is still space for 2 people to sit where my legs end!
Headlines today are about the 20,000 new jobs and huge revamp of Euston Station on the back of the high speed train link being proposed. Neat, the mafia will be very happy about all these new jobs!
Advert of the day is "Switch off at night". I initially thought it was a 'be good to mother earth and her resources but no..., it's some night nurse type medication which 'can help switch off those repetitive unwanted thoughts so you can enjoy peace of mind for peaceful sleep'. Wowza! I'm getting a bottle of that for Preeti...job done
Today's thought of the day: Give a man a job and you have an employee. Teach a man how to shift blame and you have a manager...
Review of the day: The Warhorse. If Sarah Jessica Parker does not receive an Oscar for her performance, there is no justice...
Gadget of the day: Just read that LG have developed a smart fridge, so it bloody well should be for £2,000 which has a large LCD screen, camera and Internet connection for downloading receipes. You scan the shopping receipt and it knows what you have in there or use voice recognition to tell the fridge what the item is. It can automatically reorder from Waitrose when the item has been used. It then uses the recipe to turn the oven at the right temperature! Woah!! Preeti is so chucked...
Wow that was a long bit, but you know how much I love my technology!
Lyrics of the day: It must have been love...But I'm sober now...
Forget to tell you that I spent last night
going through all my old computers in the loft. So many memories...
Right gang, time to ask the fridge to come and pick me up, see you laters,
Have a peaceful sleep,
A small man called Kawks

Monday 9th January 2012 - The Journey Home
18:21 All stations to Uxbridge
Well hello there people. I trust you had a fabulous weekend and an even better Monday. We went to Lester for a Birthday party. Now, I think it's true to say that it was a bit different to your regular 'surprise party' said in an Indian accent, but it was an 80th Birthday Party. Yep that's right, there was no Disco though the bhajans were rather good! Beat my all time record of 2hrs 12 mins for sitting cross legged on the floor and everything!
So at Euston Square and this is the first full week back. Hurrah. The train is busy but most people seem to have a seat (old style train), so that's good.
The woman opposite looks Russian to me, she has that hairstyle, like there is one of those fluffy toy dogs on her head...nice!
The chap next to me looks like he is either a surgeon or a barrister. You know how they have their glasses tipped right at the tip of their nose and he is reading something which looks very interesting and thought provoking on his iPhone.
Before I forget, thank you very much for continuing to view my blog. I'm at 1774 views now, which is tremendous and when I get to 2000, I may even do another little rap song for you as a sign of my appreciation...
I just thought of a new section for the blog. Let me know what you think. I've titled it Uncle Kawks - Tip of the day.
Todays is that Netflix have finally launched their online movie service in the UK. They will charge £6 per month which is quite a bit less than other players but gonna have to have a look at the titles they have on offer before signing up. Watch this space...that why I got rid of Sky Movies a month ago which was costing £16, and the last movies I saw were Titantic (it sank) and King Kong (it died) on it.
Did you hear on the news this morning that Anthony Worrell Thompson was just given a CAUTION for shoplifting at Tesco? He should be doing 12 months community service making soup for the homeless,and that's just for starters......
Today's headline is "Games £1bn boost for the UK. Wow, how time have changed. I can still remember when my favourite chocolate bar only cost 23p...
Oh before I forget, set your watches, it's 200 days to go!
Today's advert is "how much", "how long" "you decide". Wowza, sounds like Friday night kerb crawling the streets around Highfields... Ah, it's about Wonga.com...so same sort of thing them, I.e. your gonna get screwed either way...
Lyrics for the day are "Sometimes I feel like throwing my hands up in the air!" I'm still traumatised by that bank robbery...
Has anyone been watching Sherlock on the Beeb. it's rather good and would recommend it, and you can catch up with previous episodes on Iplayer.
Russian lady is STILL on the same page of the newspaper, so she MUST be a spy for the KBG, either that or her dog is one hell of a slow reader.
The story in the paper today is about the rise of the male receptionists. Apparently, it's gone from none to a fifth in the city in the space of 5 years.
Interesting huh..let me know why you think there has been this shift in behaviour.
Thought for the day: Never throw your old bike out ; Recycle it...
Ok gang, time to comb my muchi as its a bit windy out there and I wanna see where I'm going, see you all again real soon, and pls do let me have some thoughts and comments about future topics,
Have a great sleep,
A small man called Kawks

Friday 6th January 2012 - The Journey Home
18:21 Semi fast to Watford
Whopee, It's Friday and we have the hardest week in the year behind us. Ready to give 5 days of work a go on Monday!
So, on the way home, got on the platform, got out the iphone and disaster!! It only had 11 percent battery life!! Oh no, what to do Kawks?? What will your devote blog followers think about a no show. 3 deep breaths and some 'Om Namah Shivays later, it came to me...Use your blackberry Kawks. Type it as an email and paste to the blog when you get home...and that my friends, is why they pay me the big bucks...
Look at that, already got to Baker Street and not got through the agenda yet!
Ok, this woman opposite me, probably doesn't use the tube much as she has spread her shopping bags right where my legs normally go, and now I'm getting some strange looks for sitting crossed legged on the seat. Having a peer in the bags, and posh lady appears to have purchased 2 Kashmir sweaters. I know that they were of the finest quality as my feet started sweating when they 'accidentially' went into her bag...
The bloke next to me is making a list on shop shop of items he needs to buy. So far he has buy new shirts...and oranges. I love the general public!
Headline into todays paper is 'Race for the last golden tickets'...wowza, that Charlie and the Chocolate Factory competition has dragged on a bit as it started when I was just a lad...
Ah, I see. Its about Olympic tickets being available for peeps who missed out first time round. Good luck folks, good luck, and if anyone 'wins' tickets to the table tennis, (oh yes, how cool am I...), let's make a date at the ping pong in the Excel Centre.
Did anyone watch yesterdays CBB? All I can say is Wowza...not sure about them being Celebs, but there are some ladies who were wearing skirts that were higher than their IQ. Shocking, but will be watching every second of it to see if their IQ improves...ah hem.
Todays advert is 'you are on the right line (see what they did there) if you want affordable health insurance). 70p per day. 70p a day! I can get a Twix and some change for the homeless bloke who seems to ride this tube with me most days for that!
I'll leave you with a new chat up line that I've just thought up for the unmarried ones (give me a call, my Mum will help find you your life partner)...it goes, I've got 2 people carriers..(Pause for admiration)...they are called my testicles...
And on that bombshell, Rayners is in the distance, so I bid you farewell, thanks for popping in and see you on Monday.
Humble regards

Thursday 5th January 2012 - The Journey Home
18:15 all stations to Uxbridge.
Evening gang. Hasn't it been blowy today! Lunchtime in the Square, and the ladies were furiously trying to hold onto their skirts. And that my friends is why the city is a dangerous place to work in...
On the new style tubes but managed to dash to the only available seat in the carriage. It's the "priority" seat so I've put on my sunglasses...
That reminds me, I have a feeling that it's National Braille week this week...
Onto the headlines. Ms Abbots twitter gets a mention as you would expect. Divide and rule...tut tut.
Also there is a lovely pic of Will and Kate in a story about a security scare.
Finally there is an article about Margaret Thatcher, and what she meant to the people she touched. All I remember about Maggie is that she did away with free milk at school, and I blame her now for being only being 5ft 2!
Before I forget, new for 2012, Preeti and Rajvi are leaving me because of my obsession with horse racing.
And they're off!...
People watch - there is an Indian dude with a "hein gericke" jacket on. Never heard of them.
Advert of the day is from my favourite channel - Dave. Suits - Two lawyers, one suit. Sounds bloody hilarious... Starts 17th Jan at 9pm...
Back to the paper, and page 9 has a story about a bloke who proposed to his girlfriend during the break of a basketball match, and they had it on the big screen. Apparently, she looked at the ring and said No! Wowza...and that my friends is why I only showed the ring box to Preeti before asking her to say Yes!
The woman next to me is playing Eric Clacton very loud and she has rubbish iPhone headphones. Yes ur right, she ain't Indian...
Today's thought for the day: Butterflies are not what they used to be...
Did anyone see that wonder goal that Tim Howard, the Everton goalie score last night! Amazing. He said later "I can't take credit for that goal. The wind helped it in. I understand that Manchester City are now preparing a £45million bid for the wind...
Right, that's your lot for today, Rayners is in touching distance and I need to put my normal glasses back on.
Best regards

Wednesday 4th January - The Journey home
17:56 all stations to not sure.
Bam, Just got on the tube as the doors shut so no idea where it's heading, but Indian people are on it, so looking good.
The reason for the delay in getting on was that outside Farringdon station, there was a pretty, young, homeless woman, who I thought I should do the right thing by and so asked her if I could take her home. She gave me a big smile and said Yes! The look on her face soon changed when I walked off with her cardboard box...
No messing about today, so let's check out the headlines (got my own copy of the ES today - lesson learnt yesterday posh lady...lesson learnt.
"Two jailed, four others on the loose" it says. Wowza, looks like the prison overcrowding problems aren't as bad as they were making out...
It's really about the racist killers of Stephen Lawrence, and they deserve to pay for what they did! Woah, went serious there for a sec, but it is a serious issue.
The top of the paper points to "Naked beauty - natural ways to be at your fresh faced best". See page 29. Right, no clothes for me tomorrow on the Met line..I want to be at my best after all!
Sorry for those eating your dinner whilst reading this...
Todays Met line book being read is "Disgrace" by I M Coetzee. It says on the top that it won the booker prize in 1999! Wow, whose had a Christmas present brought from a charity shop I wonder...
Today's advert - Wowza, it's a rude one again, advertising the London Sperm Bank. It has a tag line of 'be special, give Sperm'. Catchy...I wonder if they put it on here, as the Met line is always delayed and men are thinking...damn what am I'm supposed to do with the next 2 minutes 12 seconds whilst the circle line leaves platform 4 at Baker Street...
Quote of the day: Dalglish: "There are a lot of things we'd like to say but doing so would only get ourselves into trouble".That's because they're probably racist, Kenny...
Right, Rayners is here, so have a great sleep and remember...
Be special...

3rd January 2012 - The Journey Home
HNY!! I used to say Happy New Year, but Rajvi has told me this is not cool. I thought this was initially something to do with New York, having some Hot weather, but apparently it's not...
So, how did your Chrimbo's and New Years go. As I came to work for the first time in about 2 weeks today, it was a joy to see so many happy people on the train. I think the lovely gales and rain helped a little here...
So on my journey home, and you may be thinking that I sound a little different today. That's very perceptive of you dear blog reader, and that's because i am taking the Piccadilly line home this evening. Rajvi did her big eyes, love u dad routine this morning and asked me to go to Jack Wills in Covent Garden after work to get some pink and blue stripey bag 'as it was in the Sale' and less than half price. See that's what kids do to you...
The main difference between this tube line and the met line is that this one is mostly full of tourists as you would expect. There is a chap talking loudly in what my star trek translator gadget is telling me is a mix of Bulgarian and Croatian. Then again..there are a few cz's in there, so may be Polish...
Having not really been out for a long time, I am a bit shocked again at how tall people are, especially on the PIC line as they lurch their backs to fit the tube arch.
I'm waiting for the lady sitting next to me to open the front page so I can read you today's headline from the evening standard. She is one of those people who only opens the paper wide enough for just HER to read. how rude! Will update u if I get to see it.
The adverts relate to 'Frustrating Day? Get home for some instant relief'...oo errr...ah, it's actually for LoveFilm. I'm gonna wait for Netflix as I hear they are gonna undercut everyone, thank you.
Today's thought of the day..."Surely they can just call it Zealand now."
Just some final news before I go, It may be the beginning of the year and that saying 'du du du du be forgot..Auld Lange Sign', but Preeti did not 'forgot' and is leaving me because of my obsession with Cricket. To be honest with you dear Blog reader, this news has knocked me for Six...
Righty, that's your lot! Have a great sleep (I sure will today!) and take care,
2012 regards,

A small man called Kawks
