Long absent from the blog because I’ve been travelling. Yes,
ventured out of Peckham!
So, there I was in Abu Dhabi… when I spot this odd scene. To
the right is an electric fan plugged into an energy source inside the abandoned
café. To the left is a construct containing a small heap of burning coals.
The fan is directed at them in order to keep them alight. But, why? As I ponder
this a guy comes along and lights his cigarette from the coals. Then he
saunters off to his building site, one of many in this land of petroleum
fortunes. The explanation, surely, is that lighters and matches are banned on
site and the Heath Robinson contraption is a way to get round this. Ingenious.
Daft.
