I have yet to find it beneficial to my cause, to have the law on my side reggie.


Erm...what "cause" would that be?


*awaits response with impatience*

I have just googled fatwa and found that they are rarely bad and are mostly clarifications of Islamic law made by an Islamic scholar.

I am confident that if a fatwa was issued to Sly and Reggie it would be....'turn it up'

Some music

I also read this in wikipedia


"In 2005, the Leader of the Islamic Republic of Iran, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has issued the Fatwa that the production, stockpiling and use of nuclear weapons are forbidden under Islam and that Iran shall never acquire these weapons."

You've just reminded me of that fabulous comedienne from Iran (sorry forgotten her name)...she commented once that "the British" always seemed to get Iraq and Iran confused...and then went on to say that she couldn't understand why...distinguishing between the two countries was easy...she said:


Iran is the country WITH the weapons of mass destruction!


(Well I found that funny).

Shappi Khorsandi - and yes I found that line hilarious too. She is totally brilliant, clever and funny.

I think criminalising the membership is wrong, its just giving them a false sense of importance and credence....having lived overseas, I really do value the freedom of speech in the UK!

It's OK...you are allowed to go "off topic" in the Lounge (the main reason why I didn't post this in the Drawing Room!!).

Sorry to interrupt you a minute reggie *cheeky grin*

Saudi, India, and yes it definitely has a different feel in the UK/West....we take soooo much for granted I think (not intentionally I just feel differently by my overseas experiences and appreciate more the fact we can peacefully protest, say what we think, dress how we like, do what we want) :)


*gives floor back to reggie again*

    • Why don’t you speak to head of English at private schools? Might be able to recommend a senior student.. pity now summer hols.   Was how my friend found a tutor for both their kids - maths and science and English.. They also have some mag covering schools as well
    • What is the reason for the change in name? Just curious.
    • Why change it?  You’ve got a fantastic historic, memorable name and you want to change it for something innocuous,  meaningless and empty
    • From the school newsletter:   A New Name for Dog Kennel Hill As you know we have been discussing and consulting with stakeholders about a  name change at DKH for a while. Following engagement with staff, pupils and  families, we gathered all views on a name change for the school and after  careful consideration of the feedback, the Local Committee and the Trust have  agreed with changing the school name to Grove Primary School from  September 2025.  Over the next few months we will begin a gradual process of changing our  name on signage, our website and emails etc. We will keep you updated.  We will be looking at designing a new logo to match the new school name and  will be working closely with a graphic designer to get creative. The school  council will be actively involved in this process. We will share the results with  you as soon as a design has been agreed and confirmed. We will be creating a  new school jumper to replace the old one, once the logo has been finalised. We  will phase this in over time.  We know that this is a welcoming change for some and that there are  parents and children who will be sad about the change. However, as a school  we think it will be a positive change for our school community and we will  work together to ensure that the ethos and culture of DKH will remain!
