Gulf-driving...hmmmm,...they might call...but that place is crap...i heard...anyways why don u check out Rayyan Driving school...thats a pretty decent place...anyways upto u boss...so what else is happening u Benguluru Folks...
Mumbai?been there quite a few times-have a few friends there-nice city-but think its too crowded-i love the mumbai shown in the old hindi movies tho-wish i could have visited it then-just a small problem-wasnt even born then :)
and as far as i know,mumbai's got lanterns as well as wells :))
Hyderabad...jus next to ur state...beach sounds like a romantic walk on the shores of the beach u and ur hubby...on a full moon evening...not bad Sunshine...u have started thinkin bout the evening...ensure u take care of ur child also...LOL...full moon evening so a walk planned for u...nice...
Well...for me its just another day...i really end up thinking how to make the day interesting...and finally the day finishes ... LOL...anyways...i was at the Wakrah beach last evening...fabulous...u know yesterday was Ganesh in the Sea submersion...right...so we did it at the Wakrah Beach...a great feeling ... almost like back home...only without the music and the dance...thats somethin u dont want to miss...
Basically from Bangalore - how bout u?nothin much planned for the day-mebbe a trip to the beach in the afnun after hubby gets back from office-how bout u?
Slept or not i really dont know...my eyes are paining a lot these days...anyways...as i mentioned...it might turn out to be a good day hopefully...
And regd Indian group...not exactly a group...we are jus a group of 6 ppl...good friends...we chill out online...meet (very)rarely...cos all the ladies are moms and the men are husbands...respectively...so yea sometimes we get online and we chat the crap out...it depends on when all are free...like yesterday...we were all here...and talkin for an hr...so yea if there is somethin like that i will let u know...so whats in the making today...where do u come from in india...

Now thats what i call an Indian for a start...arey madam hotel kholne ki thodi poocha hain kissi ne...thoda khaana khila do yaaar...aapko bahut achha ka kaaam hoga ye...LOL...well u r right on that reserved bit for a start...i can see the volcano waiting to erupt...all i meant that i thought u to be placid, calm natured...but maybe i have to start rephrasing all those words and put something else in due course of time...
A knowledgeable person of books and literature...u r ofcourse...wonder why u r a home mum ... maybe bcos u have jus arrived and waiting for things to settle down...cos ur literature shudnt be goind down of no use...
i didnt understand what ur tryin 2 say-but me calm,placid-i dont think so-maybe a little reserved-till i get to know you better-and then ull have to ask me to shut up-i cn talk for hours together :)
kya soch rakha he-meine yahan pe hotel khola hai kya ke sabhi khane chale aayenge :)
U sound to be a very placid, calm, personality...are u...very composed...no touch of excitement...that was there for the first time u posted on here...what happened...this place is a good one...
And regd...lunch...is it all for u...or we also invited...bahut bhook lag raha hain madam...( i guess that u know Hindi)
well..im not muslim-but will tell u what im having for lunch after ifftar is over-dont think everyone who is fasting would appreciate it if i wrote bout what im eating
all set to go home?must be almost time to go home,right?
if u do get ur hand on it try to read a million little pieces...dats also fabulous.....if u really really need to join a library then i guess u can goto brit council....though i dunno if they have increased their colection over the years and if so then by how much.....howz r ur wrking hrs during rmadan?
I guess i know what do u mean by matey...so does that mean i call u champ or not...i wud say that is a big NO...before u come to my office and whack the crap out of me...i studied in Australia...so i surely know whats matey...
so finished cooking lunch...that u came online for some Desserts...whats for lunch...(r u muslim and fasting)...if u r ...my total apologies...
ramadan means more of late nights and less of working hours...
as for myself i have been here for 25 years...so dat basically means all my life in a way...hope the library thing works out for ya..how u finding it out here?
Firstly, whats with the "matey"...Secondly, naah books too tough for me...i really want to read boooks...infact imagine a position me kneeling down in front of GOD asking him to bless with the courage of reading...he just refuses ... everytime i drop in that application he rejects...infact he curses me with sleeping if reading...so thats why...
No Proper libraries...there are a lot in the Arabic version...but not in English...but try with QP and British Council...that shud help...
I m no way an avid book reader...all the books that u guys were talkin bout...were sounding like roman and latin to me...anyways...u might wanna try and see if u cud get someone help u out the QP library(only for employees...thats why get someone who works there take u)...or u cud also try British Council...dont ask me where they are...cos i already told u ...i got to this position in life with great difficulty in reading books...LOL...so ya happy reading...

all set to go home?must be almost time to go home,right?
shantaram is amazing
if u do get ur hand on it try to read a million little pieces...dats also fabulous.....if u really really need to join a library then i guess u can goto brit council....though i dunno if they have increased their colection over the years and if so then by how much.....howz r ur wrking hrs during rmadan?
I guess i know what do u mean by matey...so does that mean i call u champ or not...i wud say that is a big NO...before u come to my office and whack the crap out of me...i studied in Australia...so i surely know whats matey...
so finished cooking lunch...that u came online for some Desserts...whats for lunch...(r u muslim and fasting)...if u r ...my total apologies...
----------------------------------------------
" Live Life To The Fullest ! Enjoy Yourself "
well-matey u could say is synonymous with the way you say champ-tho i still shudder when someone says champ :/
Like everything ive seen of doha so far-except for the lack of proper libraries of course :(
have just started readin kiterunner-read shantaram if u can get hold of it-quite liked the book...
25 years?wow-so u must be knowin doha inside out by now :)
ive been good
ramadan means more of late nights and less of working hours...
as for myself i have been here for 25 years...so dat basically means all my life in a way...hope the library thing works out for ya..how u finding it out here?
Firstly, whats with the "matey"...Secondly, naah books too tough for me...i really want to read boooks...infact imagine a position me kneeling down in front of GOD asking him to bless with the courage of reading...he just refuses ... everytime i drop in that application he rejects...infact he curses me with sleeping if reading...so thats why...
No Proper libraries...there are a lot in the Arabic version...but not in English...but try with QP and British Council...that shud help...
So what else...
----------------------------------------------
" Live Life To The Fullest ! Enjoy Yourself "
hi ksa,
