It is fasting between meals. Nice big breakfast before sunrise, sumptuous meal after sunset.

I had some colleagues doing a project in Morocco during Ramadam. They said the previously helpful and kind co-workers turned into miserable, irritable gits. A sort of Pre-Eid-Tension, I guess.

Speaking of meals - for the CUK do - why don't we go somewhere and have a slap up Christmas dinner with crackers, hats, the lot? I could investigate something along those lines? What do you think?

Same thing here happens over Xmas dear, 2 weeks before Xmas nothing gets done - everyone miserabel trying to find the right present, and 2 weeks after Xmas nothing gets done as employees deal with the back-logs and deal with their post new year depression.


Its accepted that work really slows down during Dec/early Jan due to the festivities, so why are you criticising other people's festivities, even though it was in their own country...
