completed the tag farrukh...
lol I tagged you first!
Whatever happened to Tim, he is hardly on these days. However he was brilliant when he interviewed Abu Hamza aka Captain Hook.
Last I met Tim at the Gulf Marketing Forum. He was doing Doha Talks in Qatar.
And he had given a very good talk on the freedom of the press, which I couldn't get a copy of, even though I tried.
Farrukh,
You tagged me! The not-so-secrets are on my blog too now.
And Beeb's Tim is in Doha, managing some noisy debates.
On a different note, have you heard of the film made by Ovidio Salazar exploring the life of Al-Ghazali called " Al-Ghazali: the alchemist of happiness."
