# Sorry, I think I'm being thick and not getting that one.:(
Damn I’m glad I don’t smoke anymore! I just went into Marks & Sparks and bought loads of saussie rolls
for my guests for tonight. The woman at the checkout counter we asking if I was having a Christmas party
and I told her what I’d got them for.

She then goes on to tell me that she always buys her Christmas stuff in advance as it saves
money and had I tried the bottle of mulled wine they sold as she loved it.

Now I have a feeling that it’s was corporate spiel gone mad! She was wearing a burka!

# No just I went out with a muslim girl for a long time

If you thought Catholics have the monopoly on religious guilt wait until you meet a girl from an orthodox Jordanian family in black lipstick and a corset!

# I went out with a catholic

# exactly.
I believe her father was a little more liberal than that.

But apparently her mother would have forced him to disown her at the very least.

maybe the hugely is meant to alert us to the fact he knows which one he means. Or maybe his family are all fat as fuck.

And if your level of commitment goes as far as a burka then comsuming alcohol would most likely be a no no.
