Listen. Time Passes.

There’s not much to tell you. So little, in fact, I forgot to put up a blog yesterday, but there wouldn’t have been much to share even if I had. I was on the balcony just now, and couldn’t help but notice how few boats there were at the end of the harbour. None, in fact. Even the coastguard boats were out, as they are at night, patrolling the seas and looking out for people. It was too early for the Blue Star, but I imagine that will be busy later today with people returning from the Panormitis festival. The Panagia Skiadeni came in yesterday, I assume on its way to Rhodes, and there was a crowd and a collection of cars waiting to board, but yesterday was also the first day in months I didn’t see a day trip boat come in. It looks like the traditional summer season is now over.

And talking of over, what have I got on the slate over this weekend? Not a great deal. I’ve finished the first draft of a collection of short stories in my Victorian mystery series, so I am looking forward to second drafting that. We’ve got some post to pick up from Yialos today, and hopefully, Neil will be able to do that on his way to the gym. Apparently, we’re in for some cloudy and wet weather over the weekend and into Monday, which will make a change, but the temperatures remain in the 20s.

Other than that, I am planning to do very little except work on a couple of projects, and watch a fair amount of TV, I guess. I want to get some sofa-sitting practice in for the winter ahead, although we do have things planned that take place outside of the house. We’re heading to Athens for a week late in December, for example, and although that’s a way off, at least it will give me something to write about.
