So it's 10th there? In Iran they say it's 10th too, but here they started Ramadan one day later! good for muslims here since they had one day less to fast! :roll:

But 10th is a friday, so no additional holdiay here! :(

So there's no extra days? Thought Eid runs for three days, would that not give the Sunday off then aswell?

Working the first day of Eid, then off to Spain to throw myself out of airplanes for a week and spend some time motorbiking around Majorca on a friends vintage Ducati.

Died and gone to heaven!

Very possibly, I think they're getting annoyed at the bike being there. So if you know anyone else, or would your bike fixer-upper dude collect it and do the repairs?

Cheers me dear. Then I think once it's up and running again, it'll be pimped! Don't think he's thrilled with having a 'purple' bike and hates the exhausts on it.

Damn! Really? Pff think you might be right. Yes Friday - the guest list is something ridiculous like 40 or 50 people now, people are even bringing theirs mothers :shock: How will we all fit into the apartment? Thankfully some errant behaving douches have been left off the list though - phew.
