@Heisenberg - I'd be surprised if there wasn't already one up and running. Twisted world we live in.

@CG - but how can the UK of all places ignore the public mandate? No matter how small the margin of victory, it can't be ignored. Plenty of deliberation, yes. Surely, the next step would be to agree on either a Norweigan-style EEA agreement/Swiss-style bilateral agreement or even a Turkish-style customs union?
May is seen as pro-EU but bear in mind she never really heavily campaigned for Remain. Politicians are smarter than we give them credit for. Gosh, my Outlook inbox is full of 'Brexit - what now?' e-mails!

@Padfoot - Feddie boy for the win! ❤️

@D- As much as I don't like the verdict , I think for a democracy they should respect it. But I don't really see a leader going through a full exit. Norwegian style for UK was rejected by Euro , but eventually yeah they all will work a costumy exit . How long that would take be the question.

OMG So nuts for Federer. How the heck he came back in that game!! Such a legend, only Sachin can evoke such emotions in me. Cue in the tears. GOAT.

^so true! Despite both being considered favourites, their genuine love and passion for their sport makes me love watching them win.😳The Murray game turned out to be a cracker too. Personally find him a bit overhyped.

Literally every other England fan right now..

^^^So true! Tough to be a Real fan right now. But cheering for Wales too. That said, Iceland probably be the most adorable team.

Blahh..bring on another predictable winner

@CG - did you see Iceland fans doing the 'viking clap' after the loss to France? How cute!!

@Murray - British media have the tendency to hype up our sportsmen. Started from the Tim Henman days. The worst being the way they praise a very mediocre England cricket team during the Ashes.

Fed wins. Cr7 scores . What more a girl can ask! Going to watch the Finals live happily now, Is it rude, if I smirk a bit about Messi's tax default ? Naw, maybe tomorrow.
Wimbledon and UK media hypes locals like anything (which ain;t bad) but I find Murray kinda blah. Though, these days cannot stand Djoker winning back to back.

@D- True, Henman was so overrated and the emotional hype around him. They named a hill or stand after his name there.

Beats me how a player who never won a Grand Slam is given so much respect. A hill? CR7 has a freakin' museum dedicated to him in his hometown!! Lol (such an underrated, beautiful place, would recommend it to everyone)

Smirk all you want, but we all know he's gonna avoid jail. Paisa phek, tamasha dekh lol

There is this hill where fans sit and watch matches on big screen, they named it Henman hill since his playing days .Doubt it's official but thats how they call it. I think, UK rarely produces good Tennis players hence they hype up anyone who can reach till QFs.
I don't really like CR7's arrogance and his self-obsession but guy does well on the ground and keeps it clean overall. Not gifted like Messi , he has literally worked hard on his craft to be at this level.


Messi is not going to the jail, they don't put them if it's under 24 months. Sponsors will do what they did with Maria Sharapova , play it low, wait and support silently .

@dia...
Yeh the eid holidays here are for 9 days.. Cant do much this time (other than go to a mall every other day) but will definitely be put to good use next year

@self flagellation... Difficult to explain to non shias really... It's ... I dont know... It's kind of like with the animal sacrifices during Eid ul Adha... It is sort of intrinsic to you but difficult for outsiders to understand

@molly coddling parents... I know right... Kids nowadays cannot even have unsupervised play without it being seen as bad parenting... Probably something to do with the modern age where are social circle has become increasingly limited..or maybe people are less forgiving and more sensitive now? A fight between kids (over before it begins) somehow turns into a fight between the parents...

In karachi, my neighbor would send her toddler down to me so the kids could play... Maryam would get enthusiastic.. Maybe hit the other girl with her soft toys or sort of smack in head to get her attention... And next day i would be getting veiled references from my maid that i should never leave the two kids alone 🤔 what the hell man...
