I am Back!!!!!

[Abdulmajid]

I am certain nobody has missed me but I have be away for over 5 weeks so thought I will say hello.

I also wish to relay to my many female admirers that I am afraid your desires must henceforth be quashed as I am now engaged!!!!!!

I met her on my third night in New York and popped the question upon my leaving America. She will be arriving next week when we will be moving to Edinburgh!!! Christ!!!

I am sure the scotch will love me, but its only for 6 months.

Does life get any better? I really doubt it.

[B00]

Wow, she must want to live in the uk REALLY badly!! ;-)

Only kidding petal, glad to see you back- and congrats xx

[B00]

'ang on......thought you hated Scotland or more importantly, the people in it?

[weeal]

we're not Scotch - thats a drink

[Abdulmajid]

I love Scotland!!!!! And the scotch are OK.

I am afraid we have no choice however, she has do a conversion over the summer to work in the UK and Edinburgh University was the best option. Hey ho.

[whiskeysheri]

Well, that's just the icing on the cake of my bad day, Wardy. :(

Congrats, though! Good to have you back. :) x x

[logic]

SCOTCH is whisky,, people who are born in Scotland, Are scotsmen, or Scot's for short, for gods sake don't make that mistake in Edinburgh,

[wolf63]

You may have popped the question - but did she say yes?

You'll love Scotland - and Edinburgh is lovely. No promises about the weather though.

[Abdulmajid]

Well if you want me to post a Bernard manning link where he calls our Northern cousins the scotch I shall do so!!! Ergo, it must be true.

Further the last time I went to Edinburgh, I was probably more scotch than most of the inhabitants (fair enough it was tourist season).

Have you seen the prices of property in Edinburgh!!!!! Good God, not far off London.

[Abdulmajid]

wolf, of course she said yes.

Bloody cheek.

[Abdulmajid]

"People" "Scotsmen".

Mmmmmm, ironic that some berate me for being ignorant of the word scotch, but will anybody pick up on your sexist presumptions?

The scotch equal 6 million in the world

Women equal 3.1 BILLION.

Interesting.

[Drisgirl]

Wardy -I am so delighted for ya and more so cos you cant call us Scotch any more -cos if you do that in Edinburgh -they wont bat an eyelid cos they are a cut above and shall simply look down their noses at ya -tee hee !!

Seriously -I am so happy for you both and I hope you both have a long and happy life together xxxx

What al ovely surprise x

[wolf63]

It may take you some time to get used to the Scottish sense of humour.

I am a girl and I was born in Scotland - I wasn't imported.

My brother has moved to England to tame the savages.

:-)

[theonlyone]

Congrats Joe ...what's going to
happen to AB ..will you move it
from Brighton to Scotland ....

[Abdulmajid]

Well thank you drizzy.

She is the most beautiful woman in the world and adheres to about 85 percent of my rigid criteria. Therefore, there is room for improvement but one must not cut their losses.

[Abdulmajid]

I haven't really lived in Brighton for 8 months. Only the odd weekend.

Bristol is the way forward!!!!!

But luckily a few phone calls from the right people has landed me a cushty teaching post in Jockland for the summer.

Then it will be sell, sell, sell, sell everything and buy a mansion in the West Country where I will live my life to the very end no doubt.

Life is sweet.

[puss_boots]

Hope she likes David Bowie :- )

[Abdulmajid]

She doesn't mind Mr. Bowie but is a huge Beach Boys fan. She actually lives about 3 blocks from David and Iman and has seen him about town many times.



(PS what exactly is a block!!!!!!??????)
