To the UK, 14 November 2011

On Monday 14 November I went to Southall and Hayes. I took the NMBS IC train from Sint-Truiden to Brussel Zuid (Midi) and from there the Eurostar to London St Pancras, the Hammersmith and City line to Paddington and First Great Western to Southall.

In the Park Avenue Singh Sabha Gurdwara I listened to very nice kirtan by Bhai Lehna Singh and jatha, met with Jaswinder Kaur and her daughter-in-law Jaspreet Kaur and was joined by my good friend Harmander Singh (in suit and shirt and tie !).

We talked about various issues. One was the definition of ‘turban’. If anybody has any ideas on how to describe a turban in a way that would stand up in a legal situation, please let us know !

From Southall I took the train to Hayes & Harlington station and from there bus U4.

I talked to Jaswinder Kaur, Jaspreet Kaur and Amrik Singh till about 10 pm and then retired to bed !
