Spurlock's Ramadan diary

Is Mirpuri like the Muslim version of Mackems?

 

Outlets almost makes it sound kosher

Yeah, I know the joints.

 

Spot on.

 

Educated? Erudite? Sophisticated?

Then yes.

 

No mate. Bengali.

And for my sins, a gooner as well.

 

Glutton for punishment hey?

My little bro is married to a Bengali lass and the culture is something else. When they got married the mum and sisters bought them food for about a week every day. Including breakfast.

They had a kid a few days ago and ooft. Don't think I could cope. Haven't even seen my own nephew yet

 

Oye besharam

You never side with Bengali babu.

 

Its called envy mate. Bengali's are like Ethiopia in its hey day of geldoff et al

 

Nah if you haven't eaten a prawn bhuna on chips you haven't lived.

There is a chippy near the John something or other hospital in Oxford fish is huge and very tasty

 

Probably worse as its in the back waters of Pakistan....my advice stay away from them!

 

Shut it..what you complaining about, you got best of both worlds! Just imagine being stuck with a Pakistani Mirpuri, you will be all the time...

So you learn Bangali yet

 

You are just jealous because you Mirpuri's are tight and loners, no one did it for you and we Bangali's are people and family friendly!

I think it might be because the Nephew don't want to see you! Ever thought of that Mirpuri?

 

Theres no point. She is teaching me to speak better English though

 

No thanks prawn bhuna with chips....you are the proper cultured Mirpuri!

Taking in to account that you are fat?

 

That's not hard my English Mirpuri friend... Don't forget most foreigners speak better English than most "English" people

 

So whats happening fatties ( @Spurlock @thefanwithnoname )? what's for Iftar today? I am starting to miss the month already, its gone far too quick it seems..

I have for Iftar today:
Dates, fruits, Melon, salad, grilled chicken cubes with peppers and vegtable rice...

 

Last week, I'm just embracing it, got a lot to do over the weekend.

I'm making savoury Brown rice with chicken, Raita, Coriander n mint yoghurt. I had it not long back...but practice makes perfect and I'm hoping this pot is better.

 

Azad Kashmir if you please
