White to very pale pink with wee bits of tablet, it was maybe a "fudgey" rather than "tablety" but lovely all the same, and the girl that served us was white so, unfortunately, no racist angle.

Not if they are driving buses or flying planes etc. There should be a ban on anyone performing such duties when fasting as it puts other people at risk.

Any evidence to back that up?

Lol. 


The wee old lady around the corner from myself doesn’t find it funny. A woman in a Porsche Cayenne went right over the roundabout, through her wall, over her immaculate front garden and smashed into her house. Front, side and roof all badly damaged. The driver claimed she passed out, as she was fasting.

I see within a page this pretty innocuous thread about MENA food has produced a meme about Shamima Begum tugging people off.

The key words relating to the cause of that accident are woman and she, not fasting.

The driver was a chancer.

What the hell is Muslim food??? African? Middle Eastern? Asian? Turkish? 

 

Food that Muslims eat, bud. Fairly straightforward.

Yep, shame that dedication totally wasted worshiping a book that is totally made up and definitely wasn't sent from heaven by god to justify the slaughter of millions and the maltreatment of millions more.

Same goes for those that believe in Christianity, Bhudism, Hinduism or my of the rest of the made up nonsense

Thinking of those innocents who died at a concert in Russia by those who were inspired by other sections of a mythical book.

You're not really thinking about anything other than the racist tripe than sludges its way through your small mind though, are you. 😊

Sorry bud. I've got you on ignore so sometimes forget to check back after bamming you up.

 

Why does Andrew Tit always look like he's trying hard to think of something really difficult? He's like a 90s boyband member that was chosen to appeal to a certain demographic.

Not sure you're mastering that ignore function too well, Jim. 😁

It's not offensive to me, just plain ridiculous.

 

Yup, used to do food contracts with the NHS and in Glasgow alone there are over a 100 nationalities of muslims meaning over a 100 different cuisines, not to mention that many are 2nd/3rd generation scots and as likely to want halal mince and tatties as they are a curry

Yes, she was going at some speed up a hill towards a small roundabout. Don’t believe her excuse for what happened whatsoever.

I remember it and know the lady who owns the house. 
Luckily she was not in. Even luckier it was a few minutes before the local school finished.

Yeah, my boys came up the road just after it. Ran along to the house to tell me about it. I was wondering if her house was going to have to come down, walls and roof were all moved with the damage. She was out of her house for quite a considerable time whilst they repaired it.

You're not you when you're hungry? If Mr T telling you that isn't enough, what is?

There's probably a few million people in the UK that regularly skip lunch these days.

Not due to any religious observations but just because they're feckin skint.

Mrs and myself just back from Marrakesh on Wednesday after a short week away.  When we booked up it hadn’t occurred to us this short stop would be during the month of Ramadan, bit apprehensive and don’t want to insult anyone but…..* am no starvin all day 😂.  
 

So, our first meal out at about 7pm at a decent restaurant near our apartment which coincides with local ramadanars also being able to eat, the restaurant is about half full so we pop in, no sooner sat down when a waiter appears with two side plates covered with dates, boiled eggs, and 3-4 sweet sticky pastry type things.  This was quickly followed by two large bowls of soup (Harira) with bread, then orange juice and mint tea.  This was also followed by two mini cheeseburgers each with minced lamb, two lamb samosas and two lamb spring rolls, then along came more flatbreads jam/butter/honey……….we hadn’t been in the place 5 minutes nor had we ordered any food 😳.  We ate what we could but had to tell the waiter “no more”, they were about to serve us a lamb tagline each (see below) which was quite a pot full.  Very conscious about not being rude, we paid our bill and left.

 

After a bit of digging about it turns out that the Ramadan Buffet is quite a popular thing.  It’s an easy way for a restaurant to provide a high volume of food to locals quickly with a fast turnaround.  We didn’t have another Buffet but just ordered off the normal menu, which we could have done on our first meal out 🤷‍♂️

 

Some of the quantities of food I seen people with was unreal……..don’t let these ramadanars convince you they’ve got it tough……fat bassas 😁

 

* the locals are actually alright with non Muslims eating during the day so long as your not walking down the street chomping a pizza…..some of the restaurants are open serving breakfast, lunch & dinner as normal.

They've got it rough in Western countries unless they work within their own communities. Where I lived in East London I noticed they shut their shops for the duration and sleep during daylight. Then do nothing but pray and eat from sundown to sunrise. 

 

Not so easy for them that work alongside you and I. Was a guy at my work ran a red in his empty train and derailed it causing £10m+ in damage. His concentration levels low due to fasting.
