As you walk about the streets round here, you can feel Ramadan drawing to a close. Whether it is the late night opening of the sweet shops or the fabric shops, with their giddy displays doing a roaring trade, you know that it cannot be long.
Tomorrow or Friday, I think someone said.
Suspense is in the air.
I was flying back from Heathrow at the end of Ramadan last year. There were many firework displays around Hounslow were spectacular for several hours. In fact there there were still ongoing following the take-off my flight, the clear night meant that the show was visible for some time, and also at several other towns/cities visible from the aircraft.
