Kuwaiti Groom Arrives at Wedding on Donkey Cart
A Kuwaiti groom stunned his guests when he arrived for his wedding at a five-star hotel riding a donkey cart after they waited for him in a massive luxury car.
The groom wanted to have an “unprecedented and untraditional” wedding party that will be “the talk of the town” in the country.
Thank you Meena x

Al Dhahia Juice
Legendary, old juice bar near the Co-Op in Dhahia Abdulla Salem with delicious fresh juices. They've just opened a branch in Grand Avenues too. My new favourite is avocado with honey and nuts which is just heavenly. Bought orange, carrot and watermelon (my daughter adores the watermelon) and they are all fabulous. You can have a little tasting session before you buy. I'm hoping they'll start a delivery service soon. I'll have to keep begging.

One Stop Dry Cleaners, Bneid Al Gar
I really must give a shout out to my regular, local dry cleaner 'One Stop Cleaners' at Tameer Complex, Tower 7, Bneid Al Gar, Blk 2. In the 4 years that we've been using them - I don't 'do' dishdashas or qutras all go to One Stop - they have NEVER ruined anything. Quite a feat considering I've been here 30 years and had loads and loads of clothing ruined, shrunk, shinied, irreversibly horribly pressed and just plain disappear. They are very efficient and very reasonable (downright cheap when compared to UK) and they deliver to the immediate area or at least to me. My husband and I always make out the total is way too much and ask for a discount just to watch the delivery boy get all Indian on us and start telling us in his broken, cute, limited English, "No too much money, many work, good work," whilst shaking his head, waving his hand at us dismissively and tutting at us. Now when we say it he just waves his finger at us and gives us a big smile.
Pants are 500 fils, shirts 750 fils and dresses, jackets KD 1.They never smell of dry cleaning fluid and it's always a great job.

Haven't Seen One of These in a Long Time..Thankfully
Spotted dick is a traditional British pudding made from suet, or mutton fat. The suet is mixed with other ingredients, such as baking soda, flour, molasses, corn syrup, or nutmeg. This creates a pastry dough, to which raisins or dry fruit are added, hence the dessert's "spots." The dough is traditionally either steamed or boiled, and is often served with a custard sauce. It has been know to be renamed, Spotted Richard, on menus to avoid embarrassment. :OD

Saudi Women Forbidden to Use Swings at Park
An image of two members of the Commission for the Promotion of Virtue and Prevention of Vice approaching a group of women near a set of swings in a public park in Saudi Arabia has gone viral, reported Akhbaar24 news.
The picture that was shared on social media sites and published in newspapers shows a small group of women sitting on swings approached by some members of the religious police. The religious police told the women to stop using the swings.
The action of the religious police has drawn criticism and support from the public. Some people who saw the picture lauded the Hai‘a for warning the women as using the swing could tempt passers-by, especially men, to harass or attack them. Others criticized the move stating that the Commission was unnecessarily interfering and repressing women.
LWDLIK - Another attempt at removing joy from that dark corner of the world.
Reminds me of a trip to Riyadh many years ago I was there for 3 days and thought on day one that I'd go to the shopping mall next door. I, dutifully, put on abaya and hijab and got just outside the hotel when a mutawa (religious police) yelled at me from across the road, "Ya murra, sharitch" (Oy woman, your hair) and waved a stick at me. Seems I had a bit of fringe showing. I did an about turn and stayed in the hotel for the rest of the trip and didn't go out again. For my second trip to Riyadh I purchased a niqab as well. Thought my female colleague and I were suitably attired for a trip to the mall....Wrong! Within minutes we were being followed and pssst, pssst at. It took a while to figure out how the hell they knew we were foreigners or what we were doing wrong...... We think it was the painted toenails peeking out from under the bottom of the abaya that sent them wild with desire. No shopping, no further trips to Saudia.
