Heroes Season 2 Finale

Months ago, I downloaded Heroes season 1 from emule which taken me ages. Mid way through season 2 I found some sources to watch it without needing to download it.

There's youtube from the US which was always my favourite to find all sorts of interesting video clips, too bad you can't find the latest Heroes series on youtube I guess because of the copyright issue. Then there's youku from China, which copyright isn't a big issue there and Chinese makes or copies everything including the fake eggs.


There's a better DivX video from HERE.

Season 2 has been annoying to have many stupid characters which doesn't really make sense. Peter was used by Adam but why he didn't use his mind reading power to read Adam? Maya helped Sylar to regain his power and got her own brother killed; Monica I thought she's suppose to be smart as she learns things fast but she caused Nikki's death (?); Angela Petrelli killed Nathan to keep the company's secret...

So the two heroes who fall are Nikki and Nathan, did they died? "Powerless" refers to Peter after absorbing the virus?

Hiro is again the only hero who has the clear direction and buried Adam underneath his dad's graveyard. I hope the script writer hasn't reach his bottleneck when it comes to Season 3.

Bicester Village

2 weeks ago went to Bicester Village at Oxfordshire. It's a designer outlet village selling luxury and premium brands at discounted prices.

Imagine all the branded outlet shops in a village like layout, a very special shopping experience indeed despite of the shitty weather.

A nice Starbucks at one end of the village, it would be nice to have a sip of a hot cup of coffee if the weather wasn't that cold.

Nearly 2 hours driving journey did pay off which I bought 2 pairs of diesel trousers originally priced GBP85 at only GBP15 each! Also bought 2 CK undies but I think it wasn't really cheap but I was a bit over excited to make the harsh decision.

The x'mas lighting isn't that great but the atmosphere is there.

Taken this at Piccadilly Circus while on our way for dinner, ISO 800, F3.5, 1/8 sec hand held, I wish to have the A700 soon for the high ISO performance!
