I was told by crew on the Mecca pilgrim run that as the thrust reversers deploy, dried turds come rolling down the aisle from the rear of the aircraft.... Can anyone verify that?

As one who worked for Pakistan International Airlines for three years. I could certainly add some credence to that story!

Anecdotally one heard that the Operator of Laker fame lined the interior of the DC10 with clear industrial plastic sheeting when doing 'ut Hadj.

My mum co-ordinated the fit out of Comets. The Arab airlines doing the Haj run didn't want any toilets fitted.
She eventually persuaded them to have one because of the corrosion of urine affecting the life, and therefore value, of the aircraft.
There is also the problem that many Arabs will not use a standard western toilet (I have personal experience of this), except you can persuade the men to use it as a urinal.
In summary, quite believable.

B.O.A.C. Britannia 312 aircraft - had a small cubicle near the front containing only a urinal and posted as Gents. Toilet. On one flight from the Caribbean during the days when the Gov't were chartering the aircaft to "import" immigrants, a steward came on to the flight deck and whispered to the Flt. Eng. , who laughed and wrote an entry in the Tech. Log, which he then showed me. " Urinal used as Arsenal, please clean". The next ground crew cleaned and entered " Rectumfied" !

We stopped off at a B&B in Alexandropolous. Another family from West of India was also there.

The shared facility was a large room, lino floored, large shower tray but no curtain, a wash basin, and a toilet at the far end.

The owner was distraught and told us we would have to use his bathroom as the other family had capped in the shower.

A joke my friend Alan told me this morning. Oh how I laughed.

A fella in the pub just asked me to name 3 Qatar players….

I said George Harrison, Eric Clapton and Jimi Hendrix.

Read an article yesterday about educating English speakers the proper way to pronounce that country's name.
Don't care if I offend any of them how I say it. [-X :))

Qatar lost the first tournament match against Ecuador.

They didn't give a big enough bribe

I believe that during the pre-game commentary they said that no host country had ever lost the first match of a Cup.

Oh well

I got a Rolex for my birthday from my lesbian friends next door. I think that they misunderstood.
