my fantastic friend louise
2011 was a strange year
lots of not very nice things happened to close friends and to us too
however my friend louise was dealt the worst of all, her attitude and strength has made everything else seem so very unimportant

hit the road jack

a gift
i really couldn’t quite believe my eyes today, as i read a story in the papers about a book that has been published, called “a gift for muslim couples” and what a gift it is. it is indeed a guide for muslim husbands on how to deal with marriage, the pitfalls and on what issues may cause the breakdown of the marriage, and how to ensure you have a successful marriage.
this is something that could...
