Exclamation Ramadan drinking!
hi there from one very hungover lady! - can anyone tell me why we insist on drinking absolutely every night of the week as soon as they call Ramadan. I mean we all know that within one year of living in Dubai everyone becomes a self confessed 'drunk' (i am not an alcoholic - they go to meetings ) but why does this 'holy' month bring out the raging binge drinkers in us all? Is it because we feel that all of a sudden its 'naughty' to consume gods nectar? Hmm - just had to ask seeing that I am sat here cross eyed looking at the computer and I had to drive here with one hand over my eye to see straight. Longs tonight? I think so.
