When it rains, it pours ...

First the arrests in my ickle Birmingham, and now this :frowning:

Hai Allah, will you please take Birmingham out of the limelight, the constant news coverage is making me feel all woosy na :frowning:

Thankfully, me or mine weren’t directly hit by it, but one of my friends got hit by flying loft insulation of all things :0

Anyway, as a Brummy I dedicate the following song to myself, Ehsan, Ma Mooli, Fita and Impulse:

Sometimes I feel like
I don’t have a partner
Sometimes I feel like
My only friend
Is the city I live in the city of angels?
As lonely as I am, together we cry

I drive on the streets cuz
shes my companion
I walk through the hills cuz
She knows who I am
She sees my good deeds and
She kisses the wind and
I never worry
now that is a lie

I dont ever wanna feel
Like I did that day
Take me to the place I love
Take me all the way
I dont ever wanna feel
Like I did that day
Take me to the place I love
Take me all the way

Its hard to believe that
Theres nobody out there
Its hard to believe
That I’m all alone
At least I have heard her
The city she loves me
As lonely as I am, together we cry

I dont ever wanna feel
Like I did that day
Take me to the place I love
Take me all the way
I dont ever wanna feel
Like I did that day
Take me to the place I love
Take me all the way, yeah

May Allah bless Birmingham, and all that live in her.

Re: When it rains, it pours ...

We were hit bad. not us Thank God, but our neighbourhood is in chaos at the mo. Whole areas are still sealed off with cops on guard so noone can sneak back in.

Thanks for the song. :)

Re: When it rains, it pours ...

Yup Birmingham is going through a rough patch. Good to know everyone is fine. Thanks for remembering and the song.

Re: When it rains, it pours ...

Good to know that you guys are doing fine. We in Texas get hit by an average of 100 tornadoes every year.

Re: When it rains, it pours ...

No damage to my house but the rest of the area is a bit fooked like.

Oh yes, the Mirpuri hating one.
