Taken when me and my family went over to Morrocco for a day when we were in Spain. I spotted this ad a couple of times while in the taxi, and thought, i have to take a pic. So, I got my brother to take the picture :-P

There's a tiny bakery I sometimes pass on my way to college called Muffineer - doesn't take much to work that one out.

In Tanzania there was a paper called Fukutoo, which had babies with gigantic heads on the front.

And a cleaning powder called something like 'mu*f'. Or something.

STFU

Yeah, they're silly like that over in the East. Lots of desert.

I got a picture of an arcelik lorry when I was in Turkey, heh. Stupid east.

I used to have a SMEG fridge. It had a good ice-machine in it.

When I was in Austria there was a construction company called MUNTERS.

Made me laugh. For, like, a minute.

There's also SMEG fridges. :)

Put a small one in a larger one and "get some smeg in your arcelik." (works best when said in a geordie accent).

It's close enough regardless of pronunciation.

I just found it entertaining that someone marketed a fridge as 'Arselick fridges'

I'm gonna guess the ç is pronounced like an s?

Making it Arselik? Or Arsse lick?
