Tadpole? What tadpole?

Has anyone who has made any comments about the size of the trout that I caught ever caught a trout half that size? No further comments please unless you can show me a fish...

Aslam

Congrats

Salaams to all,

Well done, Ashraf...learning to cook and be domesticated. Wonders never cease...cutting the grass too. I must really consider moving to Australia. Congrats on the soon to be new arrival too, insha-allah.
Due in November which will be a year over there in Oz and already an addition. Must have lost the pills in all the moving, I am sure.
All well over here. Still a lot of the same, busy with all the flus and joys of winter in Joburg. Zaynab' little one is so cute. Settling in at home, both mom and daughter.
Sumaiya, Ibrahim and Issa are well.
Fly fishing for tadpoles...that's new.

Asad

Congrats to all

Salaams to all,

Congrats to Ashraf & Katy on the news of the expectant Ozzie, and to Zaynab & Riyaad on the birth of their little one. May Allah grant her a long and pious life.

Ashraf seems like you working quite hard there. Making up for all the times you loafed around in MTN ? Were you planting or removing the weeds ? Witbank is starting to get quite cold so a visit to Durbs is now becoming a must.

Aslam, is that the fish you caught or was it someone else bait ?? Even YOUR hands aren’t that big…

Take care and give salaams to all

And grows even more...

Asalaamu alaykum,

Since our sms news broadcaster has relocated to Australia, I will have to let everyone know. Alhumdulillah, Zaynab and Riyaad were blessed with the arrival of their second daughter this evening. Baby weighed 2.5kgs and is doing well. Alhumdulillah so is Zaynab. Please make dua for the baby.

An Ozzie Chohan!

Thats a first. Alhumdulillah that is good news. Insha allah the morning sickness will pass and the rest of the pregnancy will go well. Serves you right Ashraf...housework and gardening is the least you can do for agreeing with my family. Besides my big hands make the fish look small.

Aslam & Saaleha & Muhammad

Poor Fish,

I managed to see the pic now ---- u r a MURDERER, that fish was meant to be returned to the water immediately. I afraid I have to agree with the rest of the family.

..........and the family grows!

Asalaamu-Alaikum,

It's been a while since we blogged but atleast Aslam keeps the website alive. The past couple of weeks have been hectic. Moved into my house, helped Ebrahim to move into his house and was busy with final exams. Exams are now over -- I now have an electrical licence to work anywhere in Australia. I'm still studying part time though, busy completing a diploma in electrical drafting. The kids are settled ....................talking about kids, another is on the way. Yes, I'm going to be a father again. Katy is well but having a miserable time with morning sickness. I'm the maid, cook, gardener, nannny etc. Come on doctors, can you guys give her something that will get her up on her feet again and SAVE me!! It's not too bad though. I'm enjoying the kitchen, she is teaching me how to cook at present. I also mowed the lawn last Sunday (first time in 31 years....and also got on my knees and removed weeds...........i thought South Africans only smoked weed) and I touched the washing machine. She also misses her parents that were here with us for three months. If all goes well the baby will be due around November....(i think). Aslam, I cannot comment on the fish since I cannot access the pic........e-mail to me pls. I spoke to Qasim Sader last week, all of them are well in the UK. Shuaib and family will be visiting SA soon........after almost 4 years, he must be excited. Hope to hear from all you guys soon.

Ashraf & Khatija

The one that didn't get away

Salaams,.

It has been very quite on the blog...where has everyone gone?

Just came back from a weekend at the Drakensberg Sun. Managed to do some fly-fishing. Lost a huge trout on Saturday but managed to get this one on Sunday. My family have made some rude comments about its size so I looking for more favourable opinions on its size.

Alhumdulillah we are all well. Our Muhammad is 4 months old and growing masha allah. I have joined Haroon Patel and his partners in private practice in Durban as of the 1st June, and insha allah, this will go well. At least I dont travel to Pietermaritzburg any more.

Aslam
