After expecting Eid on Saturday, there was some disappointment that the Moon was not sighted Friday evening and so Ramzan continued for another day. However, at sundown on Saturday the Moon as definitely there and so many fireworks, and possibly some firearms, were set off in celebration.
We went out during the day and collected my new trousers, made to measure for under 20 pounds! Then after a final shop to ensure we survive Eid we returned to the apartment.
Andrew is an order loving creature and he can only survive my level of chaos for so long. So when I got up yesterday morning all my bits and pieces on the dining table had be tidied and the desktop on my computer has been ordered also!! He also set up the surround sound on the TV for me. This had been left in order by my other friend Andrew before he left, but had all been moved when the painters were in.
The alarm has just gone off in Andrew's room which means it must be 8am, so I need to go and get a shower so that we are ready to level in 45 minutes. We are of to church and then driving up the coast to meet some friends at their beach house, so that we can speand the day on the beach, and swimming in the clean bit of the Arabian Sea!
