Supporting endangered beer, and other things

A fine Turkish brewery, forced to close its website under the new alcohol law. Horrendous night and it's only going to get worse. Spent the afternoon indoors with kids, windows closed, as the pepper spray was finally overpowering outside. According to Erdogan's speech today though, I am a terrorist as I am a foreigner, who uses social media, and I reckon the Turkish economy will survive if Gezi park doesn't become another mall. (He means 'tourist' doesn't he, we keep joking). There are now thousands of angry people in hard hats and make-shift gas masks walking down the main thoroughfares. And helicopters circling and gendarmes on alert.

But Yay! to 200 Blips (at last)
