:wtf1: :wtf1: :wtf1:

Why they are banning :ranting: !!! Are they drunk ?? :drunk:
Its a very nice game , I love it very much !!! :yeah:

But flying in open streets should be prohibited .
I remember few years ags, in Gujrat, a motorcyclist was killed when a kite's twine got twisted on his throat !!!

I know 'manjas' , they are made using gum and glass dust. I myself make my own !!! :winner:
They are more dangerous to the flyers . Often they leave painful cuts on fingers !!!



BTW : What are metallic threads ???

Indeed, for a month, but i doubt that police will be so strict about it. They would let it go, its just a common sense, and if this dont work out, giving bribery will work.

Its not that easy my friend. The world no longer has good people. It was the time when Sahabas and Rasools gave away everything excpet for the needy to poor people.

Now it is changed and these kind of things is just a hope.
