I hear it will be timed for ramadan to be more auspicious and also lessen the impact on the economy

From what I remember hearing about the last time something like this happened, there was a mass exodus from the country as everything that remained was shut. I quite like the idea of a week of peace and quiet here - I'm assuming that Spinneys and places like that will be open? My freezer isn't exactly stocked at the moment..

If civil defence shuts that's half my projects screwed.

I don't get tomorrow I would of guessed a more holy day.

Also going on holiday for a week so that means I miss a free week of work, but they probably would make use take it as holiday anyway

because it wouldn't pay to be overtly spreading such information.

i hear even the free zones shut but we'd likely only get 4days off. if that is while we are away i hope that can be recovered.

pretty harsh of us just be thinking of the impact on us, but then again if it has been going on as long as the rumours have been around then anyone close enough must be through with feeling glum about it by now. certainly the pr dept have known given the rising press profile of certain others.

Ohno.
I was hoping to find out what the mystery was today.

Has someone died, getting married, getting coronated?
Are they releasing the princesses?

So we'll have to invent something until we're worthy enough to be told about the 'secret'.
