Watch where you walk!

Monday again - and the workers are back in the main street! (A bit more was done to the pavements during last week - including some planting in the holes that had been left, but the road itself had been left in a barely passable compacted state) Ruth came out of the hairdressers at 10 am and a thin layer had already been spread and combed. At least two vehicles had also been over it, leaving tracks on the unaffected road, as had a puppy!

It is looking as if there may be a satisfactory - if as yet unbeatified street by the end of the week.

Meanwhile we have been enjoying Glastonbury without the mud underfoot! Chloe and boyfriend were there in person (and missed the bus back!). We watched some great stuff on the laptop thanks to the BBC and our neat VPN trick!

Here is Bob, complete with sarong, verucca and red wine, wallowing in Neil Young!

..and on the subject of slightly organisationally challenged local government...

I failed to list in the "changes since last year" the massacre of the trees at the back of the beach. There is a rich account of how all this happened just after Easter in the Kafenion section of the new Paleochora Forum. Anything there from Nogbad the Improbable is worth a read!!!!

Weatherwise the last few days have been calm and very warm, but the previous four days were not:- a chilly West wind, overcast skies and on Thursday two showers!
