  1. i heard about this yesterday..its shocking especially when things like this happen right outside your doorstep...it really brings it home how precious life is and how nothing is granteed regardless of how old or young you are.

    i would like to know though...is it true that he was with his brother, it was pretty late into the night and the group were messing about on the tracks?

    I don't know the full details, apart from the fact that they were running from the ticket inspector and when Shakir attempted to jump onto the tracks, he tripped and landed on the live wire. Samir iyo iman to his family again...his funeral is taking place today


  2. Samir iyo imaan to the family of Shakir ( sharky as he was known to most). May Allah swt grant him janatul firdos

     

     

    Youth electrocuted on Tube track

     

    A Tube train was delayed for 85 minutes while tracks were searched. Tube passengers and staff watched in horror as a 14-year-old boy was electrocuted after climbing onto Tube rail tracks.

     

    The incident happened at about 2215 BST at Ealing Broadway station in west London on Thursday night.

     

    Two youths were seen getting onto the District Line track and one is thought to have slipped and come into contact with the traction current rail.

     

    A London Underground spokesman said the boy's death was "a tragic accident".

     

    'Deeply saddened'

     

    The boy's companion left the station via the track.

     

    A westbound District Line train carrying 52 passengers was delayed for 85 minutes while tracks were searched for the missing teenager.

     

    Witnesses who saw the boy's death were being interviewed by police.

     

    The LU spokesman said: "This is a tragic accident and our first thoughts are with the youth's family. We are deeply saddened that someone so young has lost their life in this way.

     

    The spokesman said a police investigation was under way to determine the circumstances of the accident.

     

    The youth was thought to be part of a group of six teenagers seen at the station. CCTV footage at the station is being examined.

  3. I never got the chance to live in Somalia, but visited a couple of times...my most vivid/best memories were when I was chewing on qasab and getting up to lots of micheif with my brothers :D I also remember how beautiful and full of stars the sky was...need i mention the size of my palm flying barambaros *shuddering*

     

    It is possible to have memories at a young age, my earliest memory was when I was about 2


  4. ^^ It still baffles me three yrs on how one of my friends actually managed to burn pasta *with flames and all* on an electric cooker

     

    Dont underestimate the power of those cunto karis challenged folks


  5. There was a similar exhibition in London a few years ago called Body Worlds (in east london)...it was a travelling exhibition developed by a German scientist (von Hagens). The most vivid cadavers i remember were of the basketball man...and the pregnant woman, with the foetus still inside. The human body is truly amazing...


  6. lol@nudist & Blake, I think that was Byron? Wasn't Blake the religious one

    "prisons are built on the stones of law, brothels with bricks of religion" from Marriage of heaven and hell

     

    Blake was anti established religion...but still believed in Jesus...oh yeah, as he couldnt be nude in public...his wife and him used to enjoy it in the privacy of their own home or garden. AS for Byron...never studied him in depth...dont know if he had nudist tendencies too


  7. 1) politics, the way they felt that society/goverment was opressing them...nature (?) or was it just william blake that was a nudist

     

    2) Christopher Marlowe, john Fletcher & francis beaumont *unsure of spelling*

     

    3) Go to bed without any food...cant remember ther est

     

    6) The fact that he died when "all was quiet on the western front"...or that he died a few weeks before the war ended...he was the last one out of his friends to die?

     

    7) Donne Good morrow *cant remember first name*
