He’s going through a mass of old photos. It was taken decades ago, when we lived in Oman and passed the shop so many times on our way to the beach.

Eventually I remembered to take a photo of it and send it to Private Eye, for their ‘I-Spy’ spot, and they used it.

More than one fellow Brit later told me that they’d seen it in Private Eye and had often meant to do the same.

Debated on whether or not to get this. In the end I didn’t ?

When we lived in Africa, my H & I got a new job in Victoria Falls, we went to meet the Directors and was told we would first have to travel to Wankie to get some documentation. We couldn't stop laughing and the director couldn't understand what was so funny.

When we lived in South Africa the Afrikaners had some very rude surnames!

Last year there was someone complaining about seeing a van with Keep a safe distance, blind man driving It was of course a blinds company.
