On the side of the road

This blip is especially for SweetArt, and ideally, I should be standing next to this display, but it is too hot to park up and walk to it.

So... over here, you find all types of miscellaneous road furniture/ advertising and this particular one is of Rainbow (evaporated milk) marking 60 years of perhaps being in the region. I say region, because the UAE itself is only 43 1/2 years old! For anyone who was here pre- 1980s, they would have had to drink their tea with this as the milk! That's right, we had powdered/evaporated milk till the 70s when long-life milk arrived, and then fresh milk from the 1980s...

SweetArt & I grew up having this in our tea. I still prefer my tea with it and often carry my own supply with me or decline tea altogether, though SweetArt has learnt to drink low-fat milk.

It tickled me that Rainbow have placed these around town. G took this pic as I was driving. Apart from a very good church service in the morning, it's been a very quiet, catch up with rest day.

Heard a news report about 4 children in China being found dead - apparently a suicide; then a subsequent report about parents who leave their kids/families behind in order to travel abroad to make a better life for their families. A better life by leaving their kids behind, not in the care of an adult? It's too sad for words. I'm glad my parents didn't do that.
