Here's a few more examples I managed to photograph.
What's in the Pantry? Some sweet memories, a few vinegary observations, a couple of crusty comments and several pounds of lard (it's that diet again). And if all those words are too much, there's lots of pretty pictures.

Old and new.
As you can probably tell, I've developed quite an affection for the country of contradictions that is Turkey. It's an exciting place of contrasts and colour. Turkey has adopted new technology- and that technology often works side by side with the older ways: Wi-Fi is available almost everywhere, even as you walk the streets of a ruined city built in the time BC; switch on a TV in your modern hotel room and find CNN or BBC World news service- and step outside to find the Evil Eye embedded discreetly somewhere near the main door; and enjoy the superb Turkish olive oil, processed in a spotless factory, with sparklingly clean stainless steel equipment, only to learn that the olives were picked the hard way, by hand by someone who earns less than £5 ($7.50) a day.
Here's a few more examples I managed to photograph.
