When Louise Mensch wished me for Eid!




Today is Eid here in the UK. After the longest days of fasting I have ever fasted for 30 days, today I celebrate Eid.

It is a bit sad that I am not celebrating Eid with family, I used to go to a park in Colombo every Eid with my family and how I miss it. Today I will be celebrating Eid with no family but with a lot of great friends, and how thankful I am that I have them.

Anyway, last night I had even more reason to be much chuffed (spiritual reasons aside), one of my favourite Tory MP’s Louise Bagshawe now Mensch (not to mention one of the prettiest) sent me a personal tweet wish for Eid! How class is that!

I am not a Tory fan, indeed the Tories are considered much less pro-Muslim than say the Labour Party. Irrespective of faith, minorities in the UK tend to be more Labour leaning than voting for a Tory.

Oh, if it appeals to any of you Metallica fans, her husband is a Metallica person.

Above is a video of Louise, have a look at it. I am sure you will like her personality too, for a woman of forty, she looks remarkably schoolgirlish.

This is her tweet@aufidius the co-Chairman of our party is a Muslim! hope you have a wonderful Eid”

In hindsight, this post looks very unlike me and very juvenile, but heck - I don't do this always.

Hope you have a wonderful Eid, please do remember me in your prayers.

Sittingnut - At my age, it is perfectly socially acceptable to be attracted by schoolgirlish looks. Not that I have mentioned anywhere that I am attracted by schoolgirlish looks.

Angel - Thank you, hope you have been well!
