I'll get me coat

The next door neighbour invited me to a Muslim wedding yesterday.
To be honest, the reception was not much different from a regular bash, with kids running riot and sliding across the dance floor on their knees.
All of a sudden, Mohamed gets up and gives a young lass of about eight who was rolling about the floor a smack, tells her to behave, and to go sit with her mother.
"That was a bit harsh" I said, "In Aus, we expect kids to be a bit lively at a wedding reception"
"Maybe so" he growled, "However, in Islam we expect a bit more decorum from the bride."
