MOBY GOES TO TURKEY. A tam and pups adventure. (22 Viewers)

[Mr porky]

I don’t keep eggs in the fridge when I’m at home but the fridge seems the safest place to keep them in the van, for some reason. In the cupboard they could get knocked by tins that fall over.

I picked up from a Chinese shop in spain a plastic egg holder that holds a dozen eggs, and it works very well. I'm sure amazon has something.

 

[CaptainPaul]

I'm likely going to be back in Morocco next winter CaptainPaul but thanks for the offer

That's good news to hear hopefully see you & the pups there again

Yeah I'm not sure I'd do much of the coast next time...or I'd skip a lot of it as I preferred the inland areas but all being well I'd like to get the camper repainted in Tafroute. But I'll likely aim to go just after Christmas next time too.

I’ll be going over around that time too…

Looks like we're all going to Morocco
Funny I've noticed and met up with lots more British people this year than any other previous years which is great to see, I've had a good old natter with lots of them, they're all dodging that stupid 90 day rule but as I've said Europe's loss is Morocco's gain
As have our passport offices!

 

[teddybear]

Always kept eggs in a container on worktop until a friend who was a chef came to see us. He was horrified,so after that we took to keeping in fridge.

 

[Onemanandhisdog]

Fridges usually have egg holders so it can't be that out of the ordinary, not that I do

The real measure is what the supply chain does as they want every hour of shelf life possible.

Nowhere in the supply chain are eggs refrigerated.

 

[mackeellan]

The most important thing with keeping eggs eatable is ensure nothing can penetrate the shell. Sailors on trans oceanic trips coat them in vaseline for that purpose. If you put them in water and they float....do not eat them.

 

[Nyvern]

I used eggs bought straight for a farm and they were still usable for 4 weeks while crossing the Atlantic whithout doing
anything to them except turning them every days. Never been in a fridge.

Except the Irish passport and foreign birth registration offices cant keep up with the demand
I’m still waiting on my passport that should have been issued on the 8th of March

 

[Northernraider]

Last nights stop over and our last night at the lake

On our way north I planned to visit a waterfall but the weather was crap so I gave it a miss. Lots of snow on the way as i followed the border of Iran to dogubeyazit

And then to the Palace of ishak

I'd hoped to visit the noahs ark national park bit weather didn't allow so after lunch I continued north ,parked up a few Miles from the Armenian border at the rainbow hills .. met up with the Belgians again.

Less snow up here but been raining since I got here around 3pm

You’re going everywhere I want to go when I retire
Especially Mt Ararat

 

[Mikey RV]

Tam, just following this thread has taught me so much about Turkey I never knew existed. I never imagined it to be like it is. Thanks.

Hopefully you'll get it soon, I know they're inundated with applicants....
funny when I was leaving Folkestone in January to come down to Morocco the police & customs guys at the channel tunnel were having a joke with me and saying "oh look an Irish passport holder who's actually Irish! Who would of thought it!"

I can imagine it now, round a camp fire drinking Guinness….

In Morocco…
Have you heard the one about an English man, a Scotsman and an Irishman in a Kasbar….

 

[CaptainPaul]

Just had to blast this one

 

[Littlewheels]

I’ll be going over around that time too…

We might actually get there this time.

You will never find it, it's not in Germany.

I didn't see much of Mount ararat unfortunately as the snow, rain and mist blocked it out.

Me too , I never knew it was such a vast and different country , so many different landscapes and a lot of history. And still a lot of tensions to this date. It must be a challenge for the military here as there's still issues with Iraq, Iran and Armenia, the borders to Iran are open but Armenia has been closed for a long time. The Belgians are travelling one month in Armenia but they have to enter and leave from Georgia.

 

[Scotch mist]

I’m surprised you Northernraider are talking about going back to Morocco after you saying you didn’t like the people or the place , 25 years ago I did an off road motorcycle adventure in all of Morocco , really enjoyed the people & places , now hoping to take MoHo there in the next few years

Whimp, should have got your compass out and walked up it.

Exactly, with weather so much like home, should have been a breeze!

We've driven through some serious snow this morning right up the Iranian border lots of military checks too.

I'm now in dogzbullocks, went to ishak palace and I was going to try for noahs ark national park but the Belgians tried it yesterday and couldn't get there as the road is just a mud bath due to melting snow

Just going through the fab photos and thought, what no pooches, then what an absolutely gorgeous picture of Blu, my emoji have vanished, big heart.

 

[Yamas]

Oops just realised I'm a day behind and my emoji is back , great photos Tam
