It’s over
Over the last few years of active blogging, and BBSing and other forms of electronic communication since 1986, I have decided to stop active blogging and would like to thank everyone for their friendship, support, suggestions and comments.
It’s been fun, but it’s time to move on.
Thanks very much and best of luck to everyone. It’s been a pleasure.




Gads, I’m out of it for awhile and the whole blogosphere goes to hell…
Well, It’s been a good read! And a lot of Good reading at that. So rare in this world now’a days. You gave your all from the heart. Hope your Garden grows to be a Jungle! Wish you, and yours all the best in your future endevors. There’s nothing more to be said that the others posting here haven’t said so well already. I regret the belated good bye.
Good Bye, take with you my Highest Regards,
Walt
I will really miss this blog. I lived in Bahrain 2002-2005 and loved it, as did my kids, and your blog helped me keep in touch with Bahrain and the Gulf. Thank you so much for what you poured into the blog. We all really benefited from it, inside and outside of Bahrain.
I will really miss your blogs Mahmood, I’ve been visiting yours’ for couple of years, I had fun, I gained alot,
Good luck Mahmood
u’ll be missed mahmood,
i hope you find the time to drop a post even if it was once a month, even if you couldnt we understand.. and wish you the very best.
thanks for everything.
Ah, dear Mahmood. I haven’t visited for a few months and now you are gone. Your gentle wisdom and humour has seen us through some dark times, and reminded us all that behind the so-called “clash of civilisations” we are all just people. I wish you and your family well. Though an infrequent visitor of late, I shall miss you.
Bye mahmood. You have been fun to read
For the festive December season for “our lot” I wish you and yours well. For the new year – my very best wishes….
Mike
