Re: Ramadan
Same to you chap - its the start of the long 4 months down time here in Kuwait

Re: Ramadan
As Millhouse says, Ramadan Kareem. Except that, as usual here in Oman, Ramadan will be a day later than the rest of the GCC as there was no sighting of the moon here last night so Ramadan doesn’t begin until this evening. |
Re: Ramadan
I saw the other day that the setting of the sun for iftar happens 4 minutes later at the top of the Burj Khalifa than it does at the bottom.

Re: Ramadan
I used to love going up to the roof on the first night and looking for the moon to make my own unofficial sighting and declaration.

Re: Ramadan
You have to be a Muslim for the sighting to be valid
And sane ! |
Re: Ramadan
I started my Ramadan with a flight to the UK. Bliss.

Re: Ramadan
Ah yes! The month of acceptance and charity and patience and love. Could clearly be seen all over the Carrefours / Lulus / Spinneys etc for sure!

Sarcasm isn't very accepting, patient or loving. Come on mate, make it past day one before you **** up.
but to be honest it was more of a sad statement of fact about the whole Muslim killing Muslims scenario in other countries and yet being oblivious to their pain and suffering while still having a pious outlook on life anyway, goal this month is 5 kilos off the gut and hopefully stay off the statins |
Re: Ramadan
Working hours 12:15 - 15:40. Could be worse.

Re: Ramadan
Baltic ? No
My big brother dragged me off to the Algarve. Not my cup of chaii ! Too much like the Home Counties ! |
Re: Ramadan
Ha. Hope you get there someday. They are worth going to.

Re: Ramadan
There's the usual rush on Vimto I see.
