There is a Shallow Hal and also Fat Girls (never watched but heard of the latter).

NG- I was in the same boat as you, starve oneself and go one hour early or gorge oneself but be office alone. Well I opted for the latter, with 4 pieces of spicy wings and a chocolate bar one more hour is a piece of cake. Happy New Year to all and don't over indulge yourself tonight.

SS- totally agree with you. I think pole dancing is a fantastic way to exercise and have fun at the sametime. I am seriously considering taking up classes, I am told there is this place in central London where they even give you a free try out before joining.

Apart from praying and demonstrating outside the Israeli embassy, is there something else we could do to help. Is there an aid programme that we could contribute to, if so could you please post it here.

lol, you guys are hilarious.

GJ- Although Nur would be a better judge than I. I don't think you need to worry too much, for one the payment for the entertainment is deducted from the firm's budget and 2nd if it really bothers you, see if your firm could set up an account with a particular restaurant, set them up as a supplier with an open invoice payment. About the gift, take the drink home and dispose of it and keep the rest.

I know that this topic is not related to purchasing properties but what then if you are tired of renting, wish to buy a house and the only bank willing to lend you the money comes with interest. Bugger! Surely, there should be some leniency after all we are living in a non-Muslim country. If a woman can now travel without a man surely there should be some laxity towards the rule with regard to taking interest where there is not much of a choice. I am sorry but renting which is technically paying off someone else mortgage is NOT much of a choice.

Ibti thx darl for the booking. You have nothing to worry about, I'll hold your hand .

Nuune that looks amazing and the view wow... I can't wait this looks much more daring and exciting than paragliding.

Ibti & Faheema The 13th is fine with me. Let me know how you want us to book this. I think one person should do it and the rest could just post the amount to their account. Could we book it by this weekend otherwise I'll get bored and lose interest.

I am up for the Sat 29 Nov or any other weekend in December. Can I suggest that we book it asap before we lose interest. I am definitely up for it.

Sheh really go-karting. For some reason i thought London girls were a little bit wilder than that. I suppose go-karting does beat going to diner.Ok when and where is it taking place? Ibti- is that price for bungee jumping or parachuting? I googled and there was price of £49 to bungee jump in London.

SS- no offence but I found the whole thing sickning. To glamorise fighting especially when young people are goaded to abuse each other is not amusing at all. Why on earth is this kimbo guy allowed to make money from street fights and how does he choose his opponents. Plus the poor boys he was fighting looked very young and hardly no muscles.

Ok how about parachuting much more exciting than go-karting. Or drive down to Snowdonia for climbing and camping. How exciting that would be. I am in if you lot are up for it.

how about bungee jumping?

Hey Sayid Somali is dry and comes across harsh. Much prefer the Spanish.

^ sounds great let me know what time to expect you. Has Mr Sayid contributed yet, if not that would be a great opportunity to collect your donation from him and his colleagues.

LOL Sheh Were you the lady who out-bought us all. At one point i nearly freaked out when the girls started bidding for an item i had my eyes on from the start. Would have said hello but only knew Ibti.

Well done Ibti! You and the girls did so well completely exceeded my expectations. I coudn't believe that with a bit of glitter abayad could look so damn sexy. You should definitely do more of this and next time target the boys too i am sure they would be just as willing to dig into their pockets for such a good cause.

LOL. Thx Ibtisam.

^Why are you looking for a job?

Bella you can be a housewife as long as you are not a burden to society. There is nothing wrong with deciding to stay at home and looking after your family as long as you are contend with that decision. However some of us prefer to share and exert our skills and knowledge. By the way, you are aware that you can work and babysit a husband.

Nothing much just enough to clear my students debts and various other loans. that's all.

Also Dahabo and Ruun.

I have definitely learnt something new and wonderful about my country. Thumbs up for your hard work Adam.
