So, those who wear hijab (no we are not going down the road of a debate here):

HOW ON EARTH DO YOU GET YOUR SCARF TO STAY ON? I have tried all and any number of ways but find that by the end of a hard night partaying, invariably the scarf or my headband slips and SHOCK HORROR MY HAIR IS SHOWING. Now of course I am certainly hellbound*  so please help me with tips, tricks (please not I am not averse to stapling the thing to my head such is my desperation) on keeping it on my head.

* Yes I am joking, let’s not get our headscarves in a knot

We started our fasting and what a shocker of a first day which really had nothing to do with the fasting but a lot to do with poor child writhing in agony followed by mad dash to the toilet to begin a few days of vomiting, but alhamdulillah he is back in the saddle and it’s all business as usual at the Tasmiya Palace.

I will get to your questions when I have a free minute and thank you all for your patience.

So far so good alhamdulillah – I know everyone says that the first week is hard but I find the whole month a bit of struggle. For some reason I am doing a lot better this year alhamdulillah, mashaAllah and no evil eye here this is a good thing so just say mashaAllah and move on.

How is Ramadan going for you?
