I can sleep in tomorrow thanks to the Queen

My weekly trip to Bursa has been preempted by the Queen of England. She’ll be visiting Bursa tomorrow, and as part of her trip she’ll visit the Green Mosque and listen to recitation of a sura from the Koran, which means the folks I usually observe at the mufti building will be up to their necks in protocol.

I hope to use my extra time to post a few updates on this blog - it’s been a while since I’ve written!
