When the suns shining and the kids are all out to play, you'll never miss the jingle of the one vehicle that never runs out of Ice Cream. As a kid, you generally keep spare change in your pocket or you run to your mums handbag and dig out a pound or two. Then, as you grow up, you never seem to loose this fantasy and you begin to realise that the taste of the ice lollies and ice creams from the ice cream van are much better than the ones you keep in your kitchen freezer! They just don't taste the same at all! The jingle just calls your entire street and tempts you, regardless of how old you are and what you were doing at the moment.

Joke 1
Marriages are made in heaven.
But then again, so is thunder and lightning.

Joke 2
If you want your wife to listen and pay strict attention to every word you say - talk in your sleep.

Joke 3
Marriage is grand -- and divorce is at least a 100 grand

Joke 4
Married life is very frustrating.
In the first year of marriage, the man speaks and the woman listens.
In the second year, the woman speaks and the man listens.
From the third year, they both speak and the neighbors listen.

Joke 5
When a man opens the door of his car for his wife, you can be sure of one thing:
Either the car is new or the wife is.

The last two weeks:

Wake up just after 4am. Read Fajr. Eat toast with scrambled egg, beans and coffee. Shower. Get to work at about 6. Work until about 5. Get home in time for Zahur. Iron clothes for tomorrow. Eat three rotis with whatever is cooked. Play with kids. Read Asr. Play with kids until their bedtime. Kill a bit of time, do dishes, pack lunch for tomorrow. Read Maghrib. Try to get a bit of sleep / kill more time. Read Isha and be in bed for 11.15 - 11.30 and start all over again at 4am the next day.

“They said I need to stay here for a year. Can you believe it’s been 9 months already. Another three and I’ll be going back to the UK” If Abdul knew what was in store for him, he wouldn’t have been looking so forward to going back to the UK.

“Why did they send you here for a year? That’s a bit random isn’t it?” I just didn’t, and still to this day don’t, understand why truant youngsters are sent ‘back home’ to live with a random uncle for a year.

“They said it’ll get me off drugs and all that innit. I started doing lines and stuff. Hanging with Raf and his boys bruv. They do a lot harder stuff than me. They proper G’s cuzzy”
