Malay in Beeston, Leeds...

This is my second time in Beeston, Leeds..i did mentioned that earlier in my previous post...


[Night at Beeston from 30, Stratford Terrace....]


Is not hard to find Muslim around this neighborhood,everything is available for Muslim people to run their life here...Beeston got almost everything from halal foods to other things that needed by the society...

Today is my 11th day here...within that time i have attend two religious ceremony organized by Malay who life and stay in Leeds...honestly is more frequent compared with my time in Kuala Lumpur or even in my hometown...most Malay living in Beeston are from Malaysia and Singapore...some of them already permitted as Permanent Resident while the others are students. Since i'm being through to mature community so most of them are students at Master and PhD level. They bring along their family, wife/husband along with their kids.

Looking this on positive perspective..something that impressed me when i see the Malay community get along together and get rid from who they are or where ever they came from...

The Kings of England and The Kings of Europe

At last and finally...after year by year waiting..session by session since the last time we make it at 1999...in slippery and rainy pitch in Moscow, our man have shown their best yet again...after thrilling 120 minutes, the game reach to 12 yards decider...i tot Chelsea gonna win the game when Ronaldo miss the penalty and John Terry take the kick that could award Chelsea with the Crown....he missed it then our man don't look back anymore...that was our night..our moment to shown the world why the mans whose was wore the red jersey that night is called MANCHESTER UNITED......

Then, for another history in my life for being too close to the ground where
MU belongs...double for the session after long domestic league, we fight to the last moment and we got it...and till the last save from Van de Sarr we are now crowned as The Kings of England and The Kings of Europe.........

The morning after the game,i run to get the newspaper, cant describe th
e moment when i see almost all of the main stream newspaper cover story is about the victory of MAN U...

Something to share with...

Summer in Leeds, UK...

Again...for very long time passed by..yet i'm in the mood to write..actually tak tahu nak buat apa ni..

Ketika menulis ni aku berada di Beeston Leeds,UK..dah hampir seminggu yang lalu...perjalanan aku ke sini kali ni benar-benar meletihkan....tak tahu mcm mana nak kira berapa jam perjalanan..departed from KLIA at 3.50pm on 19 Mei arrived at Manchester Airport at 1pm on 20 Mei. Mcm tak lama, tp 3 kali transit sebelum sampai ke Manchester, KLIA -> Jakarta -> Changi -> Dubai -> Manchester,merentasi entah berapa zon waktu, belum pun sampai dah demam, baru 2-3 hari ni ok skit...


All the way i ride on Emirate...better compared with MAS for economy class but MAS much-much better in serving business or first class. Kat Jakarta almost 6 hours tunggu next flight..nothing special in the airport...Changi..yeah...one of the big competitor for KLIA in our region..secu
rity dia mmg tight gila...Dubai such a nice airport...very big airport...mcm-mcm org ada kat sana...selamba badak je tidur kat atas lantai sementara tunggu flight...tp lantai dia berkarpet la...dalam banyak-banyak airport..dr segi pengurusan aku lebih selesa dengan pengurusan di KLIA..semua airport yang aku transit delay melainkan KLIA....

So, i'm in Leeds again with my lovely wife and my chubby+cute daughter Aizara...Summer in UK right now but the weather is seems doesn't follow the nature...kadang-kadang panas...kadang-kadang hujan...mendung...masih lagi sejuk tp agak kurang jika berbanding dengan my last visit on last Winter....boleh la pakai selipar keluar pergi kedai area rumah ni...


My daughter,aixara..melaram ngan spek hitam...

So far takde apa2 big event lagi,my wife duk busy siapkan last assigment dia...hari ni siapla then bolehla nak gi jalan-jalan...we plan to drive to Scotland next week and after that fly to Barcelona and Paris...pergghhh....ye ye je erkkk...harap-harap jadilaaa....one of the life time change..lepas ni bila semua dah balik Malaysia...entah bila la pulak dtg peluang mcm ni....
