Baltinglass Town- Small in Size but Big in Heart!

Well, Beautiful Baltinglass is the name of a small town in Co. Wicklow, the Garden of Ireland. Small in size but big in heart! This picturesque, peaceful and prosperous landscaped beauty is nearby some of the world’s most glamorous greeneries like Glendalough and Powerscourt. Baltinglass is popularly called The Right-hand Man of Glorious Glendalough!

If River Slaney adds gleams and sparkles to the greenery, then it is the Baltinglass residents who add oil to the forever-burning fire of hope, aspirations and life of the town’s inner beauty- the people themselves! While Ireland feels a little shaky in present times, it is no doubt she will arise once again because of the determination, strength and courage of people like those of Baltinglass residents! The feet of every nation’s citizen can touch this soil and be witness to the world’s most welcoming smile, warmth and love they have ever experienced. A world of friendship and humour awaits them all!

Moreover, these people gems can be found in Baltinglass’ Community parks, Library, Churches, Schools, Clubs, Associations, Recreational Centres, Cultural Organisations, Local Stores, Pubs and Supermarkets.

A variety of multi-cultural delicious Hotels and Take-aways cater to the tastes of both locals and foreigners who love to dine out with their families! Along with a Garda Station, Post Office, District Hospital, Butchers, Studios, Key makers, Florists, Clinics, Pharmacies, Hair Dressers, Garages, Solicitors, Real Estates, Petrol Stations and Banks, employment is steady and so is the revenue.

Dedicated Volunteers, Organisers, Participants and Sponsors ensure events and festivals like St’ Patricks Day, Pig Derby, Auto Shows and Street Festivals are never missed out.

The transport system of various bus and taxi services to other Towns/Counties/Airports have encouraged Tourists to not only experience and enjoy these festivals but also visit local historical sites like The Hill Fort and The Courthouse.

Whether Politics, Sports or Arts, Baltinglass is home to historical personalities like Sam McAllister, Richard Crosbie, Jennie Wyse Power and John Thomond O’Brien. Baltinglass residents have participated in many national and international competitions and tournaments and brought home numerous awards and global recognition including Guinness World Records by school students.

Baltinglass, a great frame for photography lovers, was also chronicled as the backdrop for many documentaries, soaps and feature films.

And thus, like I stated in the beginning, Baltinglass, the small town, may be small in size but it definitely is big in heart because of the people who have made this town what it is today. This makes it the best place to live in Ireland.

As passed on by the elders, the children of Baltinglass will surely carry the torch for a more happier, stronger and prosperous tomorrow.

However, for the moment and for the future, this is the place I want to live in and these are the people I want to live with because this is Baltinglass and I am in love with her, my Beautiful Baltinglass!!!

Noorommavu Friends- Nooromave Gang from Mallappally Anicadu near Tiruvalla Pathanamthitta District

About Nooromave the Capital of Anicadu:

Nooromave- the capital of Anicadu, located in Pathanamthitta District, is 14kms from Tiruvalla via Mallapally. It is also 16kms from Kottayam via Karukachal. With two bakeries, including a TV in 1 of them, a YMF Nooromave Club, Volleyball and Cricket ground, Driving test ground, churches including St.Thomas Marthoma Church Anicadu and St. John's Marthoma Church Chelakombu, temples, mosque, rock quarries, plantations and paddy fields, few autos, taxis and jeeps and the main stop for all the 5 buses, it is now the busiest junction in Anicadu. Here is another Noorommavu Anicadu link:

A Beauty called Noorommavu

Nooromave Friends:

The people of Nooromave are wonderful! They are friendly, helpful and very humorous. You will never get bored with them. The best way to kill time in Anicadu is to spend time in the Kavala (Junction) either sitting near Kunjumonchayan's Bakery or Mid-Way Bakery or at the bus stop or at the Multi-purpose Volleyball ground. The atmosphere is very nice and you won't believe how many great people you would be meeting. There was a time when these Nooromave Boys were involved in so many different kinds of adventures. Now most of them are settled in different parts of the world either for work or higher studies. Well, here is a video I made of some of my Nooromave friends. The photos were taken by me and few other Nooromave Guys. I didn't have everyone's photos with me but once I get them I will put them in the next music video. The songs in the video are soundtracks from the movies Narasimham and Yodha- both starring Megastar Mohanlal, who has a huge fan base in Anicad!

Here's the video of the Nooromave Guys:

Areas for improvement Indian Embassy Dublin Ireland

The buzz is increasing among Indians on how rude the Embassy Staff are towards applicants. Refer 'Complaint against Indian Embassy, Dublin' published in www.gopetition.com by www.marunadanmalayalee.com .Now, there are a few people who have not been treated in this rude manner. But most are victims. It is for this majority that a petition is being filed to the Ministers hoping for a miracle. Of course there are those who say that 'there is no use because afterall this is a complaint against Indian Government Officials being made to the INDIAN Government'. But that is only a statement and remains to be seen if there will be a solution or not.

Anyway, here are few areas where I think Indian Government should intervene and 'HELP' the Indian Citizens. Readers can add more areas whereby Indian Embassy Dublin, Ireland can improve:

1. People travel for hours in order to reach the embassy, so please ask the staff to pick up the calls so doubts can cleared over the phone.
2. Staff may be busy which is why they dont pick up calls, which is fine, so then hear the messages recorded in Voicemail and call back later.
3. Or atleast SMS asking to call at a free time.
4. Please reply to messages sent to the Indian Embassy website.
5. Train staff on how to use Email so service delays can be avoided.

INDIANS AND FOREIGNERS
Here are 2 links where Indians and foreigners have explained the bad treatment of the Indian Embassy staff in Dublin, Ireland. There are also good experiences which proves that there is some kind of hope in expecting an improvement in the Embassy:
