How Many Has It Been For You?
Whilst driving across the dunes from Dibba today, I realised that I am enjoying/enduring my tenth consecutive Holy Month of Ramadan here in a Muslim Arab country. So how many has it been for you? Who do you think among us has been here the longest? My guess is Dean but I could be well off the mark.

My first Ramadan (only been here 7 months...) and I've found the fasting getting easier day by day - first week was headachy every evening but this week just gone, no probs going the whole day.
(that said I've been snacking today, I can't help myself at weekends, week days far easier with work keeping my busy!)
