July 6, 201610 yr I was speaking to a few of the waiters around the pool. Some (not all) go the whole hog and don't even drink water from 3am until sundown at around 7pm. Fucking madness in those temperatures.

July 6, 201610 yr While we're talking celebrations, how about June 23rd as a bank holiday?Well it will mean that plenty of folk will have time off work Not out of choice and for longer than a day though
July 6, 201610 yr It's Eid tomorrow as well isn't it Carlos? Some today, most tomorrow isn't it.It started today in the UK Tom Normally goes on for a couple of days
July 6, 201610 yr I can't remember which way round it is but shiite's have eid one day and sunni's the other summert to do with one going with the moon in their current location and the other going with the moon in Mecca
July 6, 201610 yr I can't remember which way round it is but shiite's have eid one day and sunni's the other summert to do with one going with the moon in their current location and the other going with the moon in MeccaThats What I thought.
July 7, 201610 yr Our peg works in a predominantly Muslim school. They are having to deal with kids passing out due to fasting. I don't give 2 shits either way for religion but not feeding and watering your primary school aged child is fucked up I'm my eyes. The school had 53% attendance yesterday and that was with year 6 at 100% as they were at Pgl.

July 7, 201610 yr Thowt kids were excluded from partaking in the fasting until their balls dropped or started bleeding
July 8, 201610 yr Should be easier to get taxis now Yeh probably. I don't recall this happening 10/15 years ago though, in fact back then i'd guess most of us were unaware when it was Ramadan or Eid. I know we live live in a growing multi cultural society,but i wonder if in 10/15 years Xmas/Easter will be downgraded to nothingness. whilst the UK virtually grinds to a halt during Ramadan/Eid.
July 8, 201610 yr youre not suggesting thats cos of fasting, are you are there no muslim kids in year 6 No, because nobody has turned in due to it being Eid
July 8, 201610 yr youre not suggesting thats cos of fasting, are you are there no muslim kids in year 6 I think he was suggesting the kids were off as it was Eid. And year 6 were 100% attendance as they were on a school holiday.
July 8, 201610 yr Yeh probably. I don't recall this happening 10/15 years ago though, in fact back then i'd guess most of us were unaware when it was Ramadan or Eid.

That's just ridiculous
July 8, 201610 yr That's just ridiculous I suppose you would have said the same if after Euro '96 someone had come on Ye Olde Wanderersways and suggested that in 20 years some schools would be doing away with Xmas nativity plays for fear of upsetting folk.
July 8, 201610 yr I suppose you would have said the same if after Euro '96 someone had come on Ye Olde Wanderersways and suggested that in 20 years some schools would be doing away with Xmas nativity plays for fear of upsetting folk.In 20 years By current growth Muslims will be nowhere near a majority, so why would everything grind to a halt?
July 8, 201610 yr Correct Jules. The Muslim population in this country is still under 5% I believe, some would have you believe they're almost in the majority
July 8, 201610 yr why would everything grind to a halt?Because Halliwell Rd and Blackburn Rd did yesterday, with the majority of shops shut. Couldn't get a haircut at my usual Halal Barbers, it's a scandal ;-)
July 8, 201610 yr Correct Jules. The Muslim population in this country is still under 5% I believe, some would have you believe they're almost in the majority If that's correct then can we get a correlation with how much trouble they cause as a percentage of the total? Y'know, terrorism, grooming, flaunting road rules etc.
July 8, 201610 yr 86% of this country is white is it not? Edit genuine query not engaging in another boring debate about muslims Edited July 8, 201610 yr by gonzo
