Strange people having red or brown sauce on a bacon roll! English Mustard FTW!

A guy I worked with in the UK was on the phone, fag in hand ready to nip out for one. Wasn't thinking too much and was chatting away. Seconds later he lit the fag, at desk, phone to his ear.

Priceless moment where he panicked, stubbed it out on his mousemat and blew the smoke in a draw whilst choking and trying to continue a call. It was awesome.

Really? I think brown sauce wins.

Thought it started on Weds 10th, my mistake.

I thought it did too?

According to Gulf News it is Wednesday bacon sandwiches with brown sauce it is, Dean I saw those pork pies too, the frozen ones from Choithrams aren't bad either

I thought it was tomorrow too

My first Ramadan here, not going back to Uk until 1st Aug

Will miss wandering about with Latte in hand

I might as well have a pint while I'm here then. And a pickled egg.

It's not that bad. This is the first year that I'm having to work normal hours though, that blows.

Time flies, this is my third summer and third Ramadan. I still remember joining this site as an utterly clueless chap.

Blue Cat

and that has changed?

Pint on it's way

Not really, but I was more polite when I first joined!

Blue Cat

that is true, you reminded me of Spugsy right from the start

Having met Spugsy for about 10 seconds before the Stone Roses gig I'm going to take that as a compliment.

Blue Cat

I have a big soft spot for Spugsy, like a brother

You've not met me yet.

I just got an email from Groupon or Cobone or something and they had a thing, which at first looked like a good deal:

50% off. 30AED instead of 60AED.
Buy Iftar dinner for two labourers for half price.

Shouldn't it be; 60AED but buy dinner for FOUR labourers instead of two?
