Columbus Columbus vittachu leavuuu!!! - III

Ok, last part vandachu, and since there is not much information to share about the mountains and lakes in Scotland, I am just going to post the snaps with bits of miscellaneous information about Scotland.

Disclaimer: Idhellam moving bus-lerndhu eduthadhu, so ithanai naal neenga naan picture-perfect scintillating ultimate scenic beauty post panna poren-nu ninaichindha I am sorry if you are disappointed, I am but an amateur, and kidaicha 1 second gap-la photos eduthen moving bus-lerndhu.

Inga partheenga, indha madhiri niraya sheep menjitrukum pasteurs-la, ellam sema kozhuk mozhuk parties, ennatha thinnudhunga therila grass thavira! But no, Scotland isnt famous for its sheep, New Zealand beats Scotland in that aspect. Niraya stray aadum irukunga, malai mela menjuttu, and I saw rams fighting too...edho girlfriend prachanai pola!


This Mr. Maadu is called Heimish, ada ivar per illeenga, indha breed per-e Heimish dhan. But this gentleman is different, he is the Public relations Officer...surprised? Me too, but edho ivar zoo-la promote aagi ovvoru post hold panni ippo External relations officer aayitaram. Infact, yaaravadhu camera-oda nindha, udane ivar face camera parthu kattuvar, photo-vama! Ella sweets, cakes and chocolates sapduvaram...naan sapduvara therila, I wasnt sure if I could give him something without breaching some rule.


Idhula iruka panimalai ungaluku theriyudha therila, but well, there are mountains that have snow capped on them, but since this was beginning of spring, ellam melt aayiduchu :( But this is Scotland, a mixture of mountains and lakes, an awesome mixture at that!


Scotland edhuku famous theriyuma? Yups, you got it right (did you?), it is for Whiskey! Kelvi patrupeengale Scotch Whiskey? Adhu ingadhan panranga...and most of the people who drink Whiskey drink it with coke and icecubes. This is a wrong way of drinking it..eppadi kudikanum? A glass whiskey with 4-5 drops of water mixed with it is the right way, coz too much water or icecubes would saturate it. Eppadi 4-5 drops-nu vida mudiyum? Well, the ideal way is to fill a glass with water, drain it (not till the last drop) and fill it with whiskey..simple, isnt it?


Scotland Yard..hmm, if you think that is in Scotland, well, you are wrong. Scotland Yard-nradhu namma local London-la create aana police force. It's idea was to catch thieves, ofcourse, but it was replaced by London's metro police. So ippo Scotland Yard-nu onnume kidayadhu.


Ok folks, that is the end of the Scotland trip..ennoda blog will get back to kodumai mode again...sorry Ashok, en blog thirumba saga pogudhu ;), and sorry mahesh, kodumais are gonna get worse again ;)..hope you enjoyed this short deviation from a regular text blog :)
