My detractors are trying to distract me – here’s my riposte!
Why the best job in the world, is the toughest job in the world
On the right of this page, you’ll see my personal Instagram feed. Scroll through that and it probably won’t come as a surprise to you that those of us that do the sort of work that I mainly do (that of automotive journalist), are more than frequently assaulted with plaudits like:

Ice Tea Powder Review
I love Ice Tea, and this powdered stuff is great because I can keep it in the cupboard and just make it up whenever I want.
I usually buy the Lipton Ice Tea Powder, but I thought I’d try the Nestea version for a change and to compare the two.

Eid morning!
A crisp cooling breeze has somehow scattered asunder; the heavy haze of a receding scorched summer.
