I'll try to upload some Glo. We have a collective iftar (breaking of the fast) on Saturdays here in Bristol. I'll try to take some pics and upload on Sunday.

That sounds fab, Banu_Hashim. Please do!
I was talking to our vicar last Saturday.
We have been trying to forge links with our local masjid for some time, and he is hoping to get a joint meal together for Eid. We may not be able to arrange it in time for this year (there always seem to be certain resistant elements on both sides) - but if we don't manage it this year, we can always start planning for next Ramadan.
So I would be really interested in your experience and your feedback.
(PM me with any information which goes beyond this thread)
Peace glo
Here I stand.
I can do no other.
May God help me.
Amen.
Come, let us worship and bow down •
and kneel before the Lord our Maker
[Psalm 95]
Lol... Of course... That's a promo brother Northern, we are brothers to Thai people and we just live beside each other
Yeah... I think that their food for iftar must be very special and of course way sweeter than us... but the bombings and killings there are not so good for them...
