After 570 posts and almost 15 years Greyrocks is administering the coup de grace to this blog, but will leave it available as a record of travels in retirement.
March has been yet another month with little to commend it. We are still suffering with our skin complaint, the weather has frequently been unpleasant - particularly the cold evenings and dramatic winds - much of the month was in Level 3, so indoor bar space was limited, the carnival had no public events nor processions, and the news has been utterly depressing!
We have spent a lot of time at home, and there is a something positive to report in that the apartment we have bought in anticipation of our reduced mobility has been let on a long term basis. It took less than a week to engage an agent, show it to ne couple and accept their offer at the asking price. The nightmare clearance with all its consequences and the renovation are behind us
But we are still working - with a lot of help from Chloë - on remote furnishing of the new place in Paleochora, and we are faced with a logistical problem over Yvette. She still sits in the parking at Girona airport - full of belongings including two bikes and our warmer clothes. This year we would have expected to pick her up for her last drive back to UK, but it makes more sense in terms of time, money, Spanish law and mental health to dispose of her in Spain and somehow get the most significant contents back by another means. How we resolve this might be worth relating in a post, but no!
For the foreseeable future our years will be divided between a maximum dollop of Crete, ditto Corralejo with a trip to Goa, a bit of UK and no touring! There's not enough there to document. Thank you, Brexit!
So - best wishes to our follower(s)
