Red face Sustenance while shopping

Ages since I've been on the board but having spent almost a fortnight confined to barracks, unable to drink, eat or (worse) smoke while out, I'm driven to enquire. Does anyone have a clue about places to do all of the above during the day - particularly in any shopping malls? Must be some secret hidey holes somewhere! Can't stand shopping (too stressful) without nicotine and/or caffeine.
And yes, I'm sad.............................................

As far as I know lime tree cafe, more cafe are open and i think costa coffee at emirates holidays is open - don't think anywhere in the malls is open though - could always try some nicotine gum (as long as you don't chew it!!!)

I personally believe that Satan, evils etc tend to stay away from human nature. This is purely coz only in this month you can see the true face of all human kind.

I mean, look around you and see if there is at all a single woman who hasn't wear make-up! in other periods. Why they wear make-up?, simply to cheat on men. What else could it be?. Why should women put colours and straighting their hair?. Simply to attrack men?. What else could it be?. Why should women wear tight cloth and walk on high size shoes?. Simply to attrack men, what else could it be?. And bla bla......

All these does not happen during Ramadhan. This is the only month you can see real women and how they look. Naturally beautiful...

A wise man once said If you wanna marry a beautiful woman wait till Ramadhan....

Now, no one should take me wrong here... This is very much true. It is all within the power of Ramadhan.

I simply wish Ramadhan is all year round and only a single month people can take their own lifestyle as they wish... How about that..

They dont paint their faces or anything as you are to remain pure throughout fasting - meaning no contact with anything that could seep into your skin.

I know as many of them have to cover up so much they like to draw attention to their face with pain. As for doing it for me - ummm you may have a battle on your hands Mr Nova If I stick on make up and do my hair it is for me

BACHAALNA

People are loving them thinking that they are pretty!


Amal hijazi is never on tv during ramadan because we will see her REAL face when she is fasting! I wonder if she ever fasts.
