so, yes, that was funny....bumping into a hindi movie shooting bit at waterloo station and who shd I spy but the young turk himself, abhishek bachchan and preity zinta!! shes pretty but much shorter than you'd have thot...and he, well, was dressed in rather outlandih garish clothes, beard and all...hair all greasy but sweet....made eye contact with him for about 2 seconds...they were all, like backslapping distance, from us tho the bouncers kept asking everyone to keep moving so theres no blockage...wonder which movie it was....the scene involved him walking with some extras (crowd scene) and the lady walking past him...must be the ubiquitous intro scene of the flick....scene over, people rushing for pics and autogs and they both left separately....didnt see them getting much chummy...he was busy on his cell for a bit, guess who, hmm!?!

could have easily stepped up with the rest of the gawkers and asked for a pic or shook hands but didnt....not that star-struck yet....but was a sweet experience...

hyde park was gorgeous,,,lurved the giant trees, the autumn leaves all over, green and serene...

the foreign film crew at the queen's walk....wonder where they were from...

the tube...smelly, no AC, crowded....but wonderful mix of ppl from all races and spaces...a people-watcher's paradise...

sloane street, harrods....gods of consumerism...anti-fur protesters asking us to boycott the latter....

hollywood size 00?!!! saw a pic of nicole richie - the princess anorexia - in a glossy....she looked like she was just abt to give her ghost up in a bikini, the bones sticking out - she'd have made a great bio lab prop...and thats fashionable?!!! funny, there are lots of unfortunates the world over who have a body like that and can't help being so...and who could like manage a week's food with what the bikini cost!

Yes. And you could have been subtle and not so in your face about seeing Abhi - and did you really have to say that your eyes were locked for a few moments...there is no justice in this world! none!
