My sister and I invented a game called Klaps and Flaps. It is a mix of Chess and Checkers. We got the idea when we were trying to learn the game Checkers. You play the game on a Chess board. You can even use a Checkers board. We were trying to learn to play Checkers but we did not understand. So we made our own game that is like checkers you even place it how they do it in Checkers. In the game you have 4 Klaps (they are like your kings)and 8 Flaps (like your pawns)(in Chess). You need 16 Checker coins to play this game. There are 16 coins because on the Klaps you place two coins to identify. The game is to kill your opponents coins. That does not mean if they kill your Klaps your dead. Only if you kill all the coins of your opponents, that means your dead.

My dad, in the 90s, spent close to a decade in the UAE but barring a work trip, had never visited Oman. Fast forward to the 21 st century, countless Oman Air flights from India to Europe later, he found himself stranded in Muscat. A ‘technical difficulty’ they said. He visited the Sultan Qaboos Mosque but didn’t get to see much more – it was only a 24-hour layover. However, the constant propaganda he was subjected to via the in-flight entertainment, and the cabin crew he made conversation with, convinced him that the country has a lot to offer. A friend from the UAE, who spoke highly of Oman, apparently also played a role. The parents had their mind set on Oman. The stars aligned and clubbing together a bunch of bank holidays in India, they decided on visiting in April. Unfortunately, or fortunately (the jury is still out), ...
