NGONGE Posted June 9, 2010 You're lucky it's a quick visitor, Norf. Wait until the job seekers arrive and expect you to go around arranging visas, work permits and accommodation for them. This reminds me of the a conversation I had with an old seaman in Liverpool once. He was telling me about the old days in Cadan and how people used to turn up from Somalia and enquire about the whereabouts of any clan members. Eventually, the clan member (who usually lived in a small house himself) would have ten or fifteen people sleeping outside his house every night (with the logic being that the outside of the house is still his property and these are still his guests). Grin and bear it, Norf. It could have been worse, saaxib. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Faheema. Posted June 9, 2010 ^ It could be worse huh Morning folks. Ibti, I would like a Cappuccino...please! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
N.O.R.F Posted June 9, 2010 I will have to (3 weeks was mentioned) but come on man the World Cup is about to kick off and I want MY living room back before Friday. The story about Cadan was the same in Jiddah in the boom of the 80s. My old man was very patient indeed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ibtisam Posted June 9, 2010 Oh Shidh Faheema, thanks for that, I still got them too! Hahaha *off to make me one!* Lool Ngonge, I heard that before as well. (first I thought he meant to write Canada and just missed out few letters, then I realised he was being Somali!) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sheherazade Posted June 9, 2010 oh dear at uninvited guests. You can become a guest in your own home. LoL @ potential world cup rage from Norf. Comes round every 4 years and they managed to pick this moment! Yo, folks. Are men mad or what? Some pervy weirdo- really he had the words written across his face- came up to me yesterday after talking to the waitress about me with lots of pointing and looks my way. I start to busy myself with my bill hoping he won't...but he does come over with the curiosity of a six year old. weirdo: You don't speak X(his language)? No weirdo: Why? moi: Because I'm an alien weirdo: An alien? yes, aniguba waan ka waalnaan kara. Tis the only way. He walks closer and stares at my face with increased interest(not the response I was hoping for) weirdo: My English is little and you are alien. How we will talk? moi: we won't. That's the point. He leans in further and points at my forehead weirdo: come see me for that. I am a herbalist. suddenly he's fluent moi: what? weirdo: I'm a beautician. moi: what? No, I don't see male beauticians. weirdo: then who you see helllo. moi: female beauticians? weirdo: I won't touch you hell, no weirdo: give you powder moi: I don't trust that stuff weirdo: I am looking for my girlfriend moi: she's not here anaa ka daran Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
