Bank holiday weekend!
I put on easy Autographs shoes. Sunny weather so I did not think I needed my old CK duck feather-filled jacket. So I chose Blue harbour beige coloured cotton one instead. I drove to town. I was sure the Costa was still open till late afternoon in this summer time. I was right. There were some coffee lovers still there. I bought medium sized Americano and walked out of the corner coffee shop, heading to the city hall area where people were sitting and standing in groups.
My one hand was holding ipad as my idea was to read a book in open space. I love to do so. The coffee cup was in my other hand. After sitting there for sometime, I felt a bit cold. I walked around in the nearby small lanes. I saw some party goers.
After 5 min walk, I noticed that someone stared at me from one corner. He was an Afrio-Caribbean young man with a hooded jacket. He was shorter than me. 3 min later, I was on the pavement along the tram line. I found he was following me from 50 yardsbehind. I kept walking. And I suddenly sat down on road side chairs. And I looked around. He suddenly hid behind the one of the buildings. But he was still peeping at me. Nutter!. I showed him 2 finger sign. I was not sure he saw it or not. Then I rushed to my car I parked in nearby roadside.
I was checking myself. Why was he stalking me? What's wrong with me? Of course, I was holding my ipad in my hand . Usually, I put it in my bag.
I heard locals called their town "Shoottingham" as a joke. Of course, a high shooting incidence in Nottingham. In recent new year days, apparently 3 shooting in first 10 days of 2011 . Other crime rates are relatively high as well.But Nottingham has got a good health care with the largest teaching hospital in Europe, called QMC. Of course, it is needed..
