I think Nat Geo did the same with their political map. Have you been watcing Al Jazeera weather reports?

^Caano geel cab

I'm hoping to be there next week for a couple of days. Hawshii baan wali wadaa

Ibti, you're a tough woman. Prosecuting him is better than beating him up though. You've been very dignified in how you've dealt with it. Laakin if he gets off scott free dee tell your bored cousins then

^Ana fi Dubay saxib. JB, are opening the shop Ngonge was talking about?

Afternoon reer Hargaisa iyo reer Qaahira. Maxaa la sheegey?

I see. Not much then.

Photos and more photos. Waar maxaa soo korday from the meeting?

Do you mean this?

I think you're just growing up Alpha

^its hoarding (to keep people out of a construction site) not fencing. It will be taken down when construction is completed. El Punto, there are no codes in place at the moment. Its a free for all.

You can always travel but by and tube dee. Don't be a geographical hermit

I do (and its costs an arm and a leg). I don't like to drive in London because you literally don't get far. An hours drive just takes you into the next xaafad.

All that glass lets in natural light (lower electricity costs). Faster to build (owner can let it out faster and save on cost of construction) It looks good.

^ Driving in London is horrible.

Thanks Juxa. Ngonge, if I was spending my time on the beach or by the pool on the ground floor fine. But sleep iyo surfing (doing some work) is all I do these days. Footy today to break the norm. So its the Queens Diamon Jubilee. Do you guys have an extra extended Bank Holiday? Juxa, 3 months in the City? What will you be doing?

Expect more of this type of cladding. Daryeel seem to be getting the hang of it. It does have its benefits.

Afternoon all and Jimce wanaagsan. I have never been as lazy as I have been lately. Too much of a holiday baa igu dhacay.

El Punto 'RPG' baad la heshey

^I think some good will come out of it (and I hope it does) but, Somalis being Somalis, as soon they all land back on home soil is where things will get interesting. Who is happy, who isn't, who was promised what etc will all come out.

So, what does the conference aim to achieve? What is on the agenda? Pardon my ignorance.

^Indeed. Just glad we have the Euros coming up to turn our attention to (comment on the thread warya).

Give him a chance. You just never know......

Paragon, that connection with the homeland is something very absorbing. More so for me in recent years. I have come to love the place and have a better understanding of how things work. The feeling of kinship, community and an all in it together attitude is very refreshing when coming from a dog-eat-dog world. Do visit the less ‘sanka taag’ city of Burco on your travels

I firmly believe we are the loudest people in the world. The decibals levels are higher in a Somali town than in central London
