The girls, and their ibu, have been with us over the weekend as ayah has been attending various bits of the F1 (an event in which I have zero interest.) We took them with us today as I went to pay my zakat. It's become something of a family tradition to have them come along, and Noi also gets them to assist her when she makes her donation to the big charity drive from MUIS at this time of year. After paying the zakat we picked up the girls' Hari Raya outfits from the tailor in Geylang and bought a heap of goodies for breaking the fast. (Coming soon - in about five minutes.)
Other than that I've occupied myself fruitfully by cleaning most of my CDs ahead of the big day. Almost there!

I have to confess I share your feelings on the F1. Inexplicably, everyone else around me has suddenly become enthusiastic about it, making my contempt an iconoclastic endeavour. By the way, and I mean this sincerely, congratulations on United's first home win.
And commiserations on the Hull debacle. I'm afraid that playing the best football of any team so far might not be enough in the long run, though I think there's more steel about the gunners this season. It's going to be a long hard ride.
Heh, well, Pool did well enough for me to be happy -- wait, I hope you didn't confuse me with Mr. Chew, that's the gunners fan. Also, selamat Hari Raya in advance!
Many thanks for the salaam. Appreciated.
I must say I did think you were with the goners. This puts a different complexion on things. I genuinely can't bring myself to say anything nice about Liverpool. I really thought you had more sense.
Humph -- been a Pool supporter for more than a decade. Hey, I normally can't find anything nice to say about United, but I did try...
