Dear Friends and Fellow Bloggers,
Please accept my sincere apologies for I have neglected this corner of mine for a very long time. Though I have no very good reasons to explain my long hiatus, I have been inundated with work and moving houses but will resume posting (hopefully regularly) from now on.
As many of you are aware, life as I knew it before has changed tremendously – The life I led as an unbound, young and vibrant man has now given way, justifiably some may say, to the perpetually petulant old bore that sits here guffawing. And in many ways too, that once spirited soul has now been replaced by its mature and more conscientious adult alter ego that is more concerned with fetching bread and milk from the newsagents than blogging.
Worry not though, there are many more interesting posts to come once the old bore gets his bearings right…






















Uh huh! Just this once, though. We have all kinds of people getting used to not posting and then asking for forgiveness. I shall plant my foot up someone’s backside if it happens again.
*hopes people forget her recent hiatus*
Shafi, how is married life treating you? I read somewhere that men’s health and longevity improves with tying the knot while women head the other way. Is there any truth to that preposterous, yet highly convincing, claim?
bismilaah this is my first posting, im kind like shooting with-out target ,sorry if hit any one.i bought at bakaaraha market in muqdishu did nt have any manual, …. do nt suprise my name i could a Profesor whose his school was looted..lol
lol Aya, Good to see that you are still alive! ;)
Marriage life is treating me well my dear. As for the notion of longevity for men and a downward spiral for women, dicard it – its baseless. I put it down as a ‘woman-propagated-assertion’ that has no grounds! hahaha. In all fairness though, the healthier the marriage, the healthier the couple I say!
Lafoole, Welcome to my corner Professor.
I’ve been visiting your page for awhile, whilst inwardly hoping that this nomad would settle…i look forward to the promised posts…
I’m not sure you were ever a ‘unbound, young and vibrant’ Shafi.. but welcome back :)
Hope all is well.
Okay, we forgive you but you must start posting again. You are my only link to the Somali culture.
Elyas, things have finally started to calm down and now that I have resumed posting Insha-Allah I won’t let my silent readers down walaal, bear with me though.
FOC, its okay my dear – I know you were devoid all those. That’s why you even stopped blogging :)
Native, thank you walaal. ;)
LoL@devoid.
That poor blog of mine.
Shafi my friend, how are you? It is indeed a pleasure to have you back writing for the world.
I hope you can give us your insight into married life for those of us still unhinged and unbound…
