big ups to getting out of Dubai and going to Egypt for a week diving and then Ramadan is over when we get back, can eat in public and the dodgy off licenses are all open again.

Agree with the sentiments above about the dedication muslims show by fasting, the days are pretty long and hot over here at the moment.

I'd hazard a guess and say that fasting shows less dedication than strapping explosives to ones self - but struictly speaking that aint Muslim anyway.

I had a cusotmer yesterday whinging that I wouldn't help her during a veh breakdown and that teh radio would love to hear form a woman who had 3 kids stranded on the side of the road whilst her husband is serving in Afghanistan. When did become repsonsible for recruiting married men into the army?

I sit there and whinge about being tired, when this chick has been sleeping about 2 hours a night and working 9 hour days almost the entire time, which has been almost a month. She doesnt eat or drink at work, and given we work in customer service, she talks all day without water. :shock:

Whilst im not at all religious, this girls dedication to her family and her religon is fucking amazing. :smt038

That needs a rewind......

Big Ups to the dedicated.... It is ladies like this that show your Pauline Hansons that different religions CAN and DO integrate with 'her' society, and they do it well.

Big Ups to Sunday birthday lunch with my dad, his wife Jane and my two half brothers that are 15 and 18! Although the boys and dad are far to quick in backing Matt up..... hhhhhhhmmmmmmmmmm :roll: Boys

Also Big Ups for the 4gb iPod Nano from the boy, and Bob Dylan DVD and Cd from my boys folks, and for the Minolta 303si with two filters, flash 35mm - 70mm lens and a 75mm - 30mm lens and also a 2 x Teleplus MC7 from dad, Jane and the boys..... much love....

Small downs however for the group of little wankers that threw a random rock through our window at about 6pm last night, glass all over our bed, and now duct tape over half the window...... Pretty much cemented in my mind i will NOT renew here for another year, want more quite and less main road action, sick of hearing smack heads argue over cheating partners and stealing deals at 2am in the morning...... back to Brunnie we go!

(or should that be a cut... boom-TISH).

It ceased to be a fringe about 6 months ago and grew into a sweeping gesture of cultural dissatisfaction and bad poetry.
