  8. ^^^I did not such thing :rolleyes: I like our Somali men. At least we know what the problem is and can buy a leash for them early so simple. P.s. Guys do the same thing and paint all Xalimos with the same brush. Pot and K..... :cool: P.s.s. SO did you, "Leave US alone" why are you grouping them all together. The Mirror once claimed in an article that "All Muslims, like all dogs, share certain characteristics" I guess we can say the same thing here "All men, Like all dogs, share certain characteristics" But of course both statements are incorrect and insulting :cool:
  9. Lool @giving uo coke. hmm^^^Okay, I can only try. But with no fast food, it is hard to snack. lol Lets see what the others think eh.
  10. ^^Okay I've never weighed myself, so now you are telling me I have to go on one of those machines that flashes and shouts “overweigh overweigh” in my local pharmacy. That alone would cause you to shed some weigh! lol Six mini meals a day; that is almost impossible, that means you spend the whole day eating or trying to think of something to eat :eek: Are you not starting a bit strong! I mean no fast food for a whole month!! I thought we could start easy and get extreme. Maybe two chocolate bars a week instead of 12 and no ice cream or something. Ngonge lool I like your mother all of sudden! Lol She’s great! Lol I like how Caadan thread turned into Xalimo weigh loss thread.

    Oh I need a holiday. This was so long ago. I never did do a review. It was one year ago now and here is my review. I think it is about time I tell you what happened after I boarded the suicide Syrian Airline (it is chaos with the loudest passengers and it has dents on the side of the plane) with all Arabs and my America blond boy. After several hours (six and a half to be exact) and a run thorough France we landed in Syria. I followed everyone, for I had no idea where I was going, we got to check out, and I started to queue up on the “British/ American” lane. A guard appeared immediately by my side, in Arabic he shouts “you are Somali” I look at him a bit funny “yes” I answer back, hoping he would leave me alone to ponder on why there was so many policeman in the airport. I noticed an Arab man shouting at one of the checkouts, although I could not hear what he was saying, he sounded Iraqi. “Follow me” the solider/ policeman barked at me. “Oh lord” I thought, I followed, “I am taking you to the area for immigration/ refugees….” (I could not understand everything he said) I stopped walking, he stopped too, I can sense he was getting annoyed with me. “I am not a refugee, I am a British citizen, so I am going back to the queue I was in” I start to turn back, “yes, but you are Somali, you must go thorough immigration” I was getting mad now, damn my Arabic was letting me down, so I switched to English “did you hear me, I am here for a holiday, not to stay, I have British passport (I shoved it in his face, he snatched it off and started flicking thorough)…” I stopped as it dawned on me that he did not understand a word I just said. Errrrrrrg I was getting frustrated. I started speaking in my broke a*ss Arabic again, “give me my passport” I took it and started walking away back to the queue, he did not follow, as soon as got there, another one arrived “you are Somali, follow me” I wanted to cry but I laughed, I looked back, so I can point at the guard I was just speaking to earlier, but he blended into the dozen ugly uniforms walking around. “I don’t speak Arabic” I told him in English, “but you are Somali” he answered in Arabic. Alhumdulilah the first guy appeared again and took him away. I wanted to thank him, but they left too quickly, I kept my head down for the rest of the time and looked at my shoes, I was wondering about my luggage, where is it and how do I collect it, I’ll ask the check out dude, I thought. I finally reached the front, where one chubby older guy sat with a slightly taller man standing behind him, looking over his shoulder. Before I opened my mouth he said “you are Somali” and started to call one the policeman’s over, “follow him” I stood there staring at him, trying to calm down, I dropped my passport thorough the window to his side, he opened it, looked at the picture and then at me, “where is your visa” he said, I answered in English “The agent said I can get it from the Syrian Airport” He pointed me to a another check point, go there, change some money ($35) to Syrian money and get a visa and the come back to me. I did as I was told. It took another 30mins before I was done, In my haste to get out I forgot to ask where my luggage got to, but I did not have to look far, all the bags was in big hall with no guards, close to the entrance. I grabbed my suitcases and headed out into the sunshine, it was a beautiful day. Fast forward to the next day, I was staying at Maashruucu Tomar, (or maybe Sharaqqu tomar) a nice quite hilly area with no shops for 20minutes walk. I won’t bore you with all the details, but in short I spent most of my time in Damascus. Starting with the best part; my favourit and where I spent most of my time, the old Damascus, as Fabulous would say “It don’t get no better”!! Traditional restaurants, live music and entertainment, not to mention Saladins Tomb and Al qabani theater to mention a few. Let me take you on a walk which I still remember so vividly (with the help of my loyal camera) starting with Souk Alhamadya, a beautiful little market with little shops that sell traditional items like jalabyas etc. I spent many afternoons there haggling with traders who force you to sit and drink tea while you work out a price (What is that about!?). At the end of the souk is the mosque AlOmayed, it is so beautiful, mashallah, I loved it. I can talk about this mosque all day, just this mosque deserves a post of its own and inshallah maybe one day I will, I spent hours inside it and they even do tours in English and tell you about the significant and history of each and every bit. Carry on through the market because you will find the best shops for sweets and lovely spices etc. Finally dinner/ lunch at old Damascus restaurant is a must, it is called Dimashk alqadyma they had old guns and weapons and waiters dressed in traditional clothes with nasty coffee (worse than Turkish coffee, it is so strong, I still have nightmares about it) Baab Touma has the most beautiful buildings and nice places to sit and how could I forget Hamaams. Also in Damascus, the mountain of Bloudan offers one of the best views possible, It was snowing up in the mountain when I went and I had dinner at at Mora, I went further up the mountain, and they told us we must head down because the snow was getting really heavy and the road will be unsafe. Sadly I did not have time to go back to it. I also went to Boukein. Speaking of mountains Jabal Qasyoun, made me want to move to Damascus for good, it is such beautiful view, that it is a wonder why any Syrians will leave Syrian for places like London! I eat in Ahla Tuleh, Which sits on the side of the mounting with the best food and view. New Damascus was okay, I was not too excited by it, not much to it unless you want to extensively eat out/ smoke shisha and clubbing. I did go to the National Museum, the historical Museum and Al Salhia. All I remember about New Damascus is eating out! Out side of Damascus, I went to Latakia and it was a lovely seaside, with sea food and a day trip up the mounting, so beautiful. I also went to Aleppo and Palmyra, passed Tadmor and Homs (Khaled ibn al-Walid mosque and so many old churches) on the way, but this is another story for another time. I shall return one day soon inshallah.
  13. ^^^Come on, these are the few* I mean there are lots of guys around, particularly in the west, who cook clean and take kids to school when the wife is pregnant. ducks
  14. ^^^Looool^^ Lucky he did not take you down to the station and charge you for assaulting an officer and resisting arrest.
  15. Shame that BMF and those ****** "Muslim MPs" Supported it. What I’m even more disgusted at is that Muslim organisations like BMF have supported this ridiculous idea. “We support tough measures against terrorism and all forms of criminality as long as they are applied fairly and proportionately across all communities.” Guardian Ok, nobody said there shouldn’t be tough measures against terrorism. Of course there should. Terrorism, suicide bombing, it’s all forbidden in Islam. But this is just preposterous! Britain already had the longest pre-charge detention period in the whole of Europe. Why would anyone support an idea like that? "I am reassured that the safeguards proposed go a long way in protecting civil liberties.” The Telegraph But, this motion, doesn’t protect our communities, it infringes your civil liberties. There are many human right groups that will be protesting this motion but I fail to understand why the BMF has supported it. This motion has been put into place to specifically target Muslims. Once again it’s a case of one Muslim letting another down. Only this time round it’s not a single Muslim, it’s a whole organisation. BMF has a lot to answer for and they need to be held accountable. Khurshid Ahmed’s weasel-worded article in the Comment is Free section of The Guardian mysteriously changed its title three times in one day; firstly, “BMF Opposes 42 Day Detention” then “BMF Supports 42 day Detention” and finally “Supporting Tough Measures”. Remember the BMF supports the neo-con Sufi Muslim Council and also backed the idea of Muslim students being spied upon. This latest act of betrayal did not go unnoticed by the some of the Islamophobic elements in the press. Both The Sun and the Daily Telegraph lauded the BMF’s craven position and this must not go unchallenged. The question left hanging in the air is what did the BMF receive in return and what are the leadership of the BMF up to? The one question that has been answered is that we all now know what the “F” stands for in BMF.
  16. Ngonge is not the condescending old codger you know on SOL, in fact he's a really great guy, and funny as well, with a lot of stories to tell. If you ever meet him, ask him about the "Cadde Madowbe" story ARe you sure?? The dude is even worse in real life I think. Maybe because he was showing his best side for few hrs. Don't be fooled! Looooooooool @ Castro! haha

  19. Malika ......................................yeah....blah blah Do you get my point now? P.s. When I went miyi I met mothers with 7-12 kids who were the same size as me at the age of 45+ :eek: (I left them my clothes) They don't even have all the drugs and doctors and facilities to help them carry, monitor and birth a child. Gangsters bilaah adjustment. P.s. The issue is not about whether women endure more or not, that is given. The process of birth and recovery happens all over the world. Somali women just have a bad process of recovery filled with kimis for uumuush, hilib, canno because she is still eating for two! (A myth to start with in the first place) As I said .....................blah................blah check me in 20years Malika for I do not know what shall happen

Serenity: Lol You can talk, you hate walking and I'm sure you don't spend your evenings at the gym! Joins Nepthy cheering crew for now
  22. ^^^^Looooool I agree with CL, People will treat you how you allow them to treat you, and it will be too late to try and get them to change if you don’t train them early! Malika, changes are given yes, however you should still look, healthy human, who looks her age. It is not even about him, I mean if he left you, you should look good enough to hit the market running with your kid in hand, not be overweight, look 40+, unhealthy and now depressed coz he left your as*S. It is vital you are attractive enough to live your own life, not feel that because you’ve settled for him and let yourself go, he can kick you about like a football. :cool: When you threaten that you are going to upgrade, it should have some merits. If you are looking good, he knows that you won’t put up with shid, because you’ll just go and pick yourself another one to entertain yourself with…for a while Ngonge are you sure you wanna send your brother my way?? I intend to be a mean bit*ch
