You CYs in CY and expats really are a bunch of softies, made soft by too much sun and sea and afternoon sex.

Some of us Charlies (perhaps including Milti) lived through the London Smogs of another age, a coal-fired age; real Peasoupers as we used to call them.



... But that was a very long time ago, very long...

Going for walks/jogging in this dust is worst for your health than if you had stayed home smoking cigarettes And Tim... are we to believe that in over thirty years you have never been sick enough or the weather was never bad enough to keep you home???

Believe or not, it's up to you. I was in hospital for a few days in 1982, so I didn't take my daily walks then, and I am pretty certain it has been every day since then.

It's yellow(ish) here in Oroklini. It's going to be fun watching all the accumulated sand/dust coming off the rooftops if it ever rains again. Still, it makes a change from the red Saharan sand .........

If it's ''only'' dust, ok, but noone knows what else it is......

It's dissipating fast here, anyhow. There seems to be more wind today, which helps, obviously. What are the theories as to what it is, then? I agree that it seems to be different from the usual dust clouds we get from time to time.

Come on guys! Do some experiments. Check it under the microscope. Dissolve some in water and check the pH. Leave some on a piece of bread and see if it grows. Get a Geiger counter ...

Can't be right...The Great Smog was before Milti's arrival.

The scent produced when rain falls on the dry soil in September is amazing. It's the signal that summer's over...

trust sottovillo to come up with that one. if you compare the number of times you have done and it which is in the thousands and the number of times which you may not have done which is a few times. inmy book it is so negligible it can be ignored. similar to sottovillos brain cells really. insignificant.
