Sahara Sand
So it's not enough we have to deal with the usual crap on the roads plus the winter dusting of salt we've now got our bikes covered in bloody sand?
Any chance of some normal rain followed by lengthy periods of sunshine?

Re: Sahara Sand
It's all over our cars here, bit of dew and mist overnight and the windscreens looks as if the car had done a stage of the Paris Dakar.

Re: Sahara Sand
Im just in SE London and its deffo a bit smoggy here. Then again I thought it was just the filth detaching from the locals around here as they shuffle alongRob wrote:Looking out of the window in my office in Canary Wharf and London does look a bit smoggy.

Re: Sahara Sand
The air in Wolverhampton today was even worse than usual. I had to shut the windows and put the aircon on in the car. Can still feel it now.

Re: Sahara Sand
Strangely foggy all day today, and Scoobs and th'Audi covered in a fine mist of sand. What next??? A plague of locusts? Famine? I didn't even think we were supposed to get any of it Ooop Norf?
Sorry I missed church, I was busy practicing witchcraft!

Re: Sahara Sand
I don't mind the locusts. It'll save me a fortune in spider food and locusts taste nice deep fried with some sweet chilli sauce.

Re: Sahara Sand
Got offered bugs-on-a-stick a few years back on holiday, one of those delicacies that are best left to desperate, vacuous celebs I discovered.

Re: Sahara Sand
Car covered in sand and even worse this morning, my Mum only has one lung and that's not functioning at full capacity so she has to stay indoors :-(
Live each day as your last as one day you'll be right !!
