RANDOM THOUGHTS

        Departure from Regina  The First Leg of our return journey from Regina to Bangalore was the one upto Toronto . This was in total contrast to our onward journey which I had detailed under  AIR CANADA ON SUPPORT in my Blog Number 515 . Regina International Airport is almost as big or small as our Tuticorin Airport but with many customer friendly added facilities and Services  . Friends and relatives can accompany you till the SECURITY CHECK POINT . Boarding Pass , Baggage Tag are all fully  automated . Air Canada Rouge started dot on the  Scheduled   Time and we were at Toronto 10 Minutes before the Scheduled Arrival Time . All in all a journey totally different from our earlier experience .  Thanks again , Air Canada Rouge. Live and Kicking .

 I Have studied in the Hindi Medium from Classes LKG to Class IX . Every now and then  to gainfully spend the Time which I seem to  have in abundance ,  I do try to pen a few words in Hindi  Many  among my colleagues may not view this effort with any degree of  comfort , all the same I request everyone with even basic skills in Hindi Reading to give this a try. भाईयों और बेहनों ,  हम श्रीलंका ब्राडकास्टिंग कारपोरेशन के विदेश विभाग से बोल रहें हैं . आज सन १९६४ का गुरूवार , अगस्त २० तारीख है ,  हमाम साबुन के समय के अनुसार इस समय सुबह के ठीक ८ बजने वाले हैं . मैं गणेश हरिहरन आप सबका चहीता  प्रोग्राम " आप ही के गीत " प्रस्तुत करने जा रहा हूँ . आज के इस कार्यक्रम का सबसे पेहला गाना हमने फिल्म पारस मणि से लिया है. असद भोपाली के इस गीत को संगीतकार  लक्ष्मीकान्त   प्यारेलाल   ने  संवारा  है . इस गीत को मोहम्मद रफ़ी और लता मंगेशकर ने अपनी आवाज़ दी है . इस गीत के लिये फरमाईश भेजने वालों के नाम हैं , बॉम्बे ब्र...

                                      AAP HI KE GEETH  While browsing through the NET on YouTube the other day , I came across Yesteryear’s PURANE FILMON KE SANGEETH and AAP HI KE GEETH Signature Tune of RADIO CEYLON . This was a pleasant surprise and brought back many old Happy Memories .  PURANE FILMON KE SANGEETH used to commence every morning at 7.30 am and end with the evergreen final KL SAIGAL song before the 8.00 am deadline .  AAP HI KE GEETH at 8.00 am would have the Been Tune of MERA MAN DOLAY  ——KAUN BAJAYE BAANSURIYAAN of the old Film NAGIN as its Signature Tune . This one hour program used to have all the popular songs of that span played at the request of the listeners . There were names of places like Rajnandgaon , Nanded and Jhumri Talaiyya with which people became acquainted with , thanks to the repeated mention of these places along with the names of ...

       First Ride on a TESLA - Y Two Names that are sure to pop up each time you go through the pages of any Newspaper or  Magazine are TESLA and ELON MUSK .  TESLA is the GoTo name in the Automobile Market if one has the Money to splash around and an Inclination for Swanky Hitech Cars.

    AURORA BOREALIS  Sept - 2022  An Aurora , commonly known as the Polar Lights , is a Natural display in Earth's Sky , predominantly seen in the high altitude regions . Auroras display dynamic patterns of brilliant lights that appear as Curtains , Rays , Spirals  or dynamic flickers covering the entire sky . The display yesterday close to our place of stay in Regina was truly spectacular in more ways than one. Grandkids were really fortunate to witness this colorful event as it unfolded yesterday night close to Midnight at our place .
