Everything gets blocked up with fine sand. Video players etc get blocked up, & you can't see the mountains for the cloud of dust. Still, it beats the cyclone we had in February! :2tup:

edit:- One of the local garages was offering a deal on air con servicing, so on Tuesday I took the car in (never had the air con serviced in the 7 years I've had the car) WOW! what a difference! Now it's cooler in the car than in the house!
