I am gonna have a competition and all aof you are qualified to enter and whoever can undo this knot will be the lucky winner of a evening trip to Stills on Yas Island. The trip also gets you free pick up and drop off as you might not be in a position to get back on your own.

Those interested may post their names and mobiles numbers and times they are willing to give this a shot.

Those who are unsuccesfull in unraveling the knot will have to pay a disqualification fee !

What do you mean by "in his right senses" don't know what you mean.

BTW its the knot on the strap and not mine that needs to be opened. I have others to help open mine if I need to !!!

Nasser, Khalid has the secret to undoing knotted snatch-straps, as was demonstrated during the Zannooba Challenge (Zannooba is arabic for Flip-flops, Jangles or in hindi, Chappal).

Not only was he mad that his 100dhs Zannooba were damaged when knotted in the strap, but more pi$$ed that after an hour of blood, sweat and tears to get them free, his wife stole them when he got home!!!

AAAAAARRRRGGGHHHHHH MY ZANNOOOBA !!!!!! :mad: :mad: :mad:
The sound echoed around the bowl..... :D
The one and only FOONDER!
Show love to the environment, treat it with respect!
