    I'm only observing Ramadan between breakfast and lunch and then lunch through to dinner. Oh, and elevenses then afternoon tea and cake.
    Illegitimus non carborundum est!

      A muslin collegue observing ramadan inspired me to give up alcohol for lent this year.

      Bloody hard, but I'm glad I did it.

        There is no point in torturing your body and mind by fasting or
        denying yourself the pleasure of alcohol in the name of religion.
        Life is too short, enjoy while you can.

          Can you please add 'self-pleasuring' to the list. Thanks.

              It's shagged your spelling:

              muslin
              collegue

                Nah, it's the same as teasing anyone who's fasting, dieting or who has just become vegetarian. If you're hungry, bacon sandwiches always smell great.

                One of my Jewish colleagues was asked if he was orthodox, he replied "Well, it's funny you should ask, because the saturday afternoon, as I walked down the highstreet to the diy store, eating a bacon sarnie and drinking a glass of milk..."

                  Yeah, but if you do it right, then after you die, you get 70 virgins, or something. Mind you, if they stay virgins, I guess it isn't that much fun...

                      I do my own version of Ramadam. From sunrise to sunset nothing but Smirnoff touches my lips.
