Day 237: Mawkish Delight

Wake up to find my car covered in a thick layer of fine dust.  A Saharan dust storm carried over seas and deposited overnight.  The desert comes to my door step.  How exotic and glamorous.  It's like someone's left a bar of Turkish Delight under my windscreen wiper.  Only more authentic, and less sickly. 


In my search for a picture of Fry's Turkish Delight, I have come across a still from the original iconic 1980s advert - strapline 'Full of Eastern Promise'.  Never has a man looked less Turkish.  The most Eastern this Promise gets is probably Essex.
