Snap!

Last week Greyrocks celebrated its anniversary of meeting and of marriage. Not a significant number in either case but marked nonetheless!
In the morning Bob proffered this postcard wittily annotated with reference to expiry of driving licences. All very charming! In the evening the traditional meal was taken at The Small Garden. On the table had been placed by Joep (Sifis) and Liselotte a small gift and a card:- the same one with a message about carrying on down the road together!
Ahhhh!

Meanwhile the other Sifis is still at large! The crocodile living in a reservoir near Rethymon continues to elude transfer to a more suitable habitat and is attracting many tourists and spotters. We sent news of this to various friends who visit regularly and received a couple of replies about Crocs on beaches - the colourful sort that usually appear in pairs!

And talking of things on beaches this carefully crafted oeuvre appeared near the cantina on Thursday - thanks to Noreen and her young French assistant! It's been getting pretty busy down there since August began, with the arrival of many of the usual suspects, but more of that later!

Ruth and Olga have been playing weekly Scrabble, and Ruth has been given the Grand Master a run for her money with newly-recruited Joe rapidly improving. This week saw an amazing score of a draw of 202 each for Olga and Ruth, and Joe staggeringly close behind. Worth recording for posterity, so here is the board at close of play. Snap!
