Comments on: Kids R Us http://www.248am.com/mark/kuwait/kids-r-us/ A blog by Mark and Nat, a married couple who are living in Kuwait. Mark works in Advertising while Nat works in TV. Tue, 02 Dec 2008 00:27:05 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.6.5 By: Saquib http://www.248am.com/mark/kuwait/kids-r-us/#comment-412135 Saquib Sat, 26 Jan 2008 06:11:37 +0000 http://www.248am.com/mark/kuwait/kids-r-us/#comment-412135 The old days. Brought back a lot of memories. I could see large one in Farwania from our apartment window. It was burned down during the Iraqi invasion by the Palestinian children from Farwania localities. It was a sight to see as the a large crowd of kids was coming back to Farwania crossing the wide road in new bicycles, electric cars and toys. A plume of black smoke from the building (just behind the yellow Koala logo) in the background, with happy children in front hurrying their way back. Being a 12 year old at that time, you can imagine the pain I felt :) The old days. Brought back a lot of memories. I could see large one in Farwania from our apartment window.
