Old Friends

Well, all is quiet again, at least in this part of the West Bank. We're now in somewhat of an interstitial moment, waiting to see what the effects of the election are.
While we're waiting...
Let me introduce a couple of old friends I bumped into again:
W., my woman in Nablus (well actually she lives near Nablus), didn't vote in the election because she couldn't be bothered. She was off home again when I saw her, but I'm sure we'll catch up again soon.
K., whose restaurant is currently shut after an altercation with the landlord. The troubles have visibly taken their toll on K., but he was soon back to moaning, gossiping and smoking like a chimney. You can't keep a good man down for too long!
