*lays out stall*


All religions are complete and utter rubbish - Im sure we all agree on this - all sensible people do.(ha)


this Idolatry busines sis all cobblers


If there is a God & he is indeed Good,then Im sure he is agreeing with Snorky on this organsied relion farce


BUT


Anyone going to one of the places must, surely, be given a lesson in the culture and peculiarities that you must observe- whether you accept them or not, you have volunteered to work in the place. Ditto Brits who get lashed for brewing bathtub gin in Saudi Arabia - its not right, but what do you expect ?


I realise that this woman probabaly did this without thinking and no harm was meant by it, but this is a not too compliacted basic idea in the rules in these places - surely she should have been advised or given a refresher before taking on such a job ?


I may not agre with standing up for thr national anthem in the USA, but should I sit on my spotty arse and cat call sarcastic comments whislt otyhers are doping it , then I am laying myself wide opne to a reaction

Fair enough snorky, but this was done a little while back, with full cooperation of the teaching staff and headmaster, locals, none of whom raised a murmur.

Some demagogue has got hold of this further down the line and is kicking up a stink.


I'm sure she'll get found guilty, a slap on the wrist (hopefully not a couple on the back) and be booted out the country after pressure from foreign office.


It is all totally ridiculous though.

I think a worse story than this is the woman in Saudi Arabia who was out in a car with someone she wasn't related to. They were attacked by a gang of men who raped both of them. The woman is now in prison awaiting 200 lashes for breaking the law by going out with her boyfriend.

> I think what happened is that she named

> the Teddy Bear Mohammed after one of the boys in

> her class. Simple mistake to make.


Excuse my ignorance, but who was that boy Mohammed named after? I'm sure there's a "logical" reason why a boy can be called Mohammed without his parents being flogged, but a bear can't, somebody please explain. (I'm going to guess that the rule is that the teddy bear isn't a living creature. So if it had been the class hamster would that have been OK? I need to know the rules so I don't put my foot in it next time I'm in Sudan.)

    • There is no other way than to move out. I am in such a situation myself where our neighbours are complete assholes. They breached the Covenants and when we pointed it they said to take them to court if we want.  Unfortunately, they have made our life miserable and we have to move out.    What helped in our situation is having a calm conversation face to face. It only happened after they tasted their own medicine(i know it's mean but nothing else helps).   I know it's unfair but better move out and prioritise your mental health. 
    • Thank you so much for the reply. Jeffery turned up a couple of hours ago. I edited title to say found but somehow it didn't save. Thank you so much for going to the trouble of posting this sighting... even if it didn't turn out to be Jeff.  Jeff came running down the street like a bat out of hell and ran into the house. Never been so relieved. Mind you i've been up and down the roads shouting his name out all day. Even in Wingfield street. 🤗
    • I saw a smallish black cat outside 1 Wingfield Street just now.  I am not convinced it was Jeff, the eyes look a little different.
    • When I worked just off Long Lane, it used to take me over half an hour to cycle there so it’s definitely not in East Dulwich.  can this be moved to the lounge please?
