more sand
Good stuff sand
When the Great Master Builder was building all the mountains and deserts he over ordered on the materials and had a lot of sand left over.
He was at a loss as to what to do with it all when his young assistant, Michael, suggested he could maybe sprinkle it round the edges of the countries so there would be somewhere for the children to play.
"Children?" asked the Great Master Builder.
"Ah, yes - you haven't got to that bit yet have you? Trust me it'll be good."
So, looking thoughtfully at Michael – who had come up with the whole mountain/desert idea in the first place – the Great Master Builder took up all the sand in his Great Master Builder hands and sprinkled it around all the countries where it lay un-noticed for thousands of years until someone invented buckets, spades and away-day train tickets.
