Eclipse Shirt Is Here!

FedEx dropped off the much anticipated Eclipse t-shirt today and I must say, it looks fab! I got it as a result of taking part in the Ganymede Around the World Contest. My coder friends are going to be so jealous!

I've posted a few pictures of the t-shirt here. Enjoy!

Eid in the Square 2007

Yesterday, I went to Trafalgar Square for this year's Eid celebrations. It was bigger and better this year with a line-up of Muslim artistic talent taking the stage and providing an afternoon of thrilling performance.



Eid in the Square celebrates Eid-ul-Fitr, the Islamic holiday marking the end of Ramadan, the month of fasting. It is a festival of great happiness and celebration and is rejoiced by millions of Muslims around the world, bringing communities, friends and families together.

The atmosphere was great! The square was packed with people; the Muslims dressed in their colourful Eid clothes. There was also a Muslim bazaar and a children's area with interactive workshops.
