Have you ever talked to somebody in a burka ?

they're quite normal behind the giant pepperpot costume. I've had brief words with a couple in Morrisons.

you have a tent fetish and you are blacklisted from all millets.

I went to a hospital yesterday, both the receptionists in one of the the maternity wards were wearing burkhas, but the face mask wasn't up.

Sorry twomatchpoints i can give you half a point for that not a full point and definetly not twomatchpoints (like kenny mann has)

Only at the weekends

Have you ever talked to somebody in a burka ?

Yes I loved wearing it and was talking to someone who was wearing a Tw4tka.

not just spoken to one, but she also got here t1ts out! Was on a flight several years ago in the Gulf (Dubai I think) and a young girl was sitting next to me with her baby. She was very pleasant although didn't speak English too well. Some time into the flight she opened the front of her outfit and flopped one of her bristols out for the sprog. Seemed very bizarre, since she still had her face covered, but presumably needing to feed the baby trumps modesty in their culture.

yeah, talked to the wife over the breakfast table this morning...what a bloody mess she makes eating her cornflakes!

I wonder how old you have to be to start wearing one? HH was the baby on board the flight all 'burkaed up'?

'Curb your enthusiasm' had a funny episode a few years ago with a woman in a burka, can't seem to find it on youtube though.

''...and what a pleasure it was to talk to somebody in a burka''.

How weird is that!
What a pleasure it is to talk to somebody in a suit.
What a pleasure it is to talk to somebody in a tracksuit.
What a pleasure it is to talk to somebody in a sports jacket.
I cannot imagine any situation in which I'd be posting THAT burka, or any similar phrase, in a forum. Very Odd!

Incidentally - I had dinner with a Muzzy man and his wife, who'd been well and truly burka'd, in a Spanish hotel. She was not allowed to speak to me at all - he, in his NY peak cap, t-shirt and denim jeans had to speak for her.

Was it a pleasure ?

It was interesting, yes. On a coach trip we were thrown together for a midday meal with a third couple (black man with white wife from Holland). The silence was deafening so I started a conversation by offerring the Muslims wine :). I asked the fully veiled Muslim lady direct questions several times and when asked hubby confirmed she understood and spoke English well (god knows why or how she practised lol)! The best I could get was her nodded agreement with her husbands responses on her behalf.

Thats a funny story Ivor, nice one   I most probably should have used the word interesting/unusual rather than pleasure but all the same it was a happy/unusual time shared by all in the supermarket.

you were talking to a tape recorder... there was no one behind the costume.

It was like to talking to post-box

*a

the only time i spoke with one was coming through passport control at manchester airport , she was the fecking one sitting there checking my passport , i thought how ridiculous , born and bred Barnsley lad being checked out by some fecker in a Burka , all i could see were her beady eyes looking at me and looking at my passport , i just said '' everything ok luv?''................she did,nt reply.............C unt

There were interesting moments - eg the young, clean-cut husband, when asked, in excellent English agreed he derived some pleasure from observing the topless and occasionally nude ladies on the beach whilst insisting his wife covered up at 34degrees c!
The wife's view of her 'situation' was largely 'well that's just the way it is - it's what I've always known'. I know she had a driving licence and they were both well educated and of 'comfortable means' at least.
In conclusion - we could easily have been friends with the Dutch couple they were quite normal.

Great stuff

found it..

I had to visit a property in Birmingham which a friend of mine owns. The tenants are muslims and only the wife dressed in full burka was at home when I got there. No problems with talking to her except I had difficulty understanding her very broad Glaswegian accent.
A somewhat bizzare encounter!

I go in a posh french cafe near the US embassy. Often see fully clad ladies with their blokes in t shirt, combats, trainers and baseball cap.
For about 40 years I have always been baffled by the women being fully covered and the blokes looking like someone from Hawaii five o !!!
Plenty of freedom for the geezers eh!!??

Unbelievable.
I'm sure they do it on purpose simply to prove that they can do it and get away with it on the back of PC.

Not one of Larry's best Make my Hay. I prefer "The Palestinian Chicken"

My mate went to a fancy dress do on a stag weekend wearing a Burka. He fell over as he couldn't see properly through the slot. He broke his leg and missed the wedding .

A berk in every burka.

Talk to them?

Christ no - much easier to demonise them

Like they demonise their own women - or even snowmen -  hmmmmm!!!

tbh get too close and there is no way you can talk properly as the stench means you have to block your nose.

Even nuns don't cover that much up and they're all off their rockers.

Alot of men wear the burkha and usually bollock naked under the rest of the clothing

I gave up my seat to one on a train to Victoria and after hearing that person on the the phone I would have bet odds on it was a bloke.

pmsfl

when i started working for 365 as call op many many years ago, i was paired up with this pretty little thing, she was lovely, helped me navigate the telebet system and was one of the best people to get paired up with. The first 5 days flew bye and i was soon allowed on me own.

The following week / weekend when we were back in, i sat down waiting for her to come in, but couldnt / hadnt seen her. 

I had no idea, she was sat directly opposite me with her burkha on, didnt have a clue it was her. Im still friends with her on facebook to this day. She had a dodgy arranged marriage it seems but is a proper stokie.  If you closed you'r eyes and spoke to her, you'd have no idea she wasnt from Hanley.  lol.

Have you ever talked to somebody in a burka ?


not yet, and don't expect to in the near future.....

I often say "hiya" to them if they walk past me, just so they think I've recognised them.
Especially if their husband is there

Parking my car about 12 years ago, a woman ran out of the house in the full garb screaming & shouting that I had hit her car, I replied I park here every day & your dent has been there for months, I then said I wont continue to argue with someone I cannot see & walked off.

What does 'hiya' mean in Arabick ?

one swore at me once, she was wearing a red one and I tried to post a letter in her mouth

Never really thought of this but how the devil do they eat?

i wouldnt risk speaking to a woman with a burka on. firstly i wouldnt want to as it is not civilised to wear one in this day and age and secondly wouldnt their husband(s) take it as an insult and put a fatwa on you?

Male terrorists are using the Burka to move around without being detected on face-recognition cctv.....got to be banned !

I once had a conversation with a Burka wearer about Burka fashion. It was a sheet conversation.

Les yeux sans visage eyes without a face
Got no human grace your eyes without a face.

No I've never worn one.

1.01 lanede at last, I was getting worried.

I spoke with a young woman wearing a burka in Morrisons today.

She was in the cat food section and seemed to be having trouble deciding what to purchase, so I said "It's a problem knowing what to buy for the cats isn't it?"

She said that she didn't have cats and they were 3 strays that looked starving and she felt sorry for them as they looked hungry, and it was very cold.

I congratulated her on her compassion and suggested she call Cat's Protection who would have them neutered if nothing else but the most important thing you can do for a cat.

She thanked me, said it had been nice chatting and went on her way.

Delightful young lady.

kenny full marks for squeezing a cat story into the thread

A raider has attempted to rob bank and conceal his identity - by wearing full length BURKA

A CCTV still image was captured this morning in premises near a NatWest branch moments before the man entered the bank, threatened a staff member and demanded cash.

The stocky criminal was dressed head to toe in a black burka and was carrying a white lady's handbag.

Nothing was stolen and no one was injured, but witnesses reported seeing him carrying a gun.

Leicestershire Police are appealing for information.

Described as being about 5ft 10in, the raider, who was also wearing tinted sunglasses, fled on foot.

lol Sultan, I've had a lot of practice,I now have a 53% strike rate.

"Have you ever talked to somebody in a burka ?"

Do Vauxhall make it?

Another fine thread started by Stretch

have you heard anything from BobVegas?

Not in a long while BB...we did have Betfex on the go and he was there regularly but that died a death after the guy who registered the site mysteriously disappeared along with the site. Bob mailed me a few times after that but I haven't heard from him in months.

ok PR I was half expecting him to be back here by now

He would be spotted within a couple of hours much like Stretch would.

got talking to one in an Anne Summers Shop in Birmingham.

She had a 12" rabbit and a tiny pair of red crotchless knickers in her basket. No wonder she was wearing a burka the naughty little minx

Burka is a perfect disguise for adultery

....and nicking stuff from the warehouse
