Well, There has certainly been some interesting exchanges while I've been gone.  LOL

Dave (and others) , I was thinking about you all while I was enjoying a bit of Corona and that BLT!  :D  Most delightful, I must add!

Connected to the Topic;Me and other few family friends planned for a B>B>Q last night and due to the unavailability of ISTARAHA(Resort)we planned to to go Janadaria(Whatever the right spelling is:P).It was mix gathering of five families and we choosed almost the corner of the dusty ground in dark and made a square of 4 car and kept out activities within the boundary and yes a very low music was on as well,we couldnt even ebjoy it because it was so low and my mom was keep asking us to increase it but we still kept it too low.

Anyways suddenly from no where 2 mutawas Jeep came and called our men and said"Mosiqi Mamnooh" Music not allowed :mad:... Our friend pretended as he don't understand the language(Though he does:P) Then mutawas pointed towards his own Tape and told him to switch off our music too.So of course we did but then they again send another motawa jeep after 20 min to make sure and instructed us same,though it was already off and not to mention their random rounds had started around so we decided to pack up and we left without enough enjoyment :(...
Yeah but i must mention it was mix gathering and none of us were having hijab but they dint argue about it at all so I guess that wasn't to irritating but Still :( We couldnt play our "Antakshri" and I had already told them not to play cards because yes,its "Mamnooh" too:lol::lol::lol:

Mamnooh is just another way of saying "do not do what we like to do but cannot"
