Hurricane

I really should proof read what I write before I post it but then it wouldn’t be so spontaneous!

We are actually staying in a clean and large apartment in the middle of farmland where we are woken up by the cockerels at a reasonable time!  The sun is shining and the hot water is working but not the cooker, luckily we have all the equipment we need in the van. This is still a very small island and as such quite claustrophobic, we can’t stay here all winter, we’d kill each other, so we are looking at changing our plans in a slightly more organised manner.

Yesterday we went into the old town which is still beautiful and the day before we went to Old Perithia up on the mountain, there are a few more things we haven’t done but not many!  We have to stay here until R has finished his accounts which takes a couple of weeks by which time we should have decided what to do.  Meanwhile a visitor is to arrive to see us in 10 days and I am beside myself with excitement.

There is a hurricane predicted for the next few days and Greece has closed all the schools and battened down its hatches but I don’t think it will come this far up, we have decided to go and sit in Vanley and watch the storm from the hills if it does get here.

I am going to a coffee morning in the afternoon with the local English people today and then a charity quiz this evening.  R won’t come, he’s not a fan of coffee mornings.  Feel a bit like an extra in the Greek equivalent of Benidorm.
