Day 36, as it is today as you read this, day 35 as it is as I write as it’s actually Sunday morning. On Monday, the work really starts. Picking up keys at nine, and then the trundling back and forth across the village with the sack trolley we borrowed on Saturday, and trundled back from Nimborio to Horio, in the rain, or partly in the rain.
That, naturally, necessitated a stop off en route, at Pacho’s, and then we decided to get the bus up as we were wet and had the trolley with us. A quick trundle through the village, some supper and then all that was followed by going out to a birthday party in the evening.
We’d seen Yianni Rainbow on the way down to the harbour in the morning, looking fit and well and starting to open up the bar, or at least he was getting in there and sorting things out. ‘Two more months and working?’ Well, maybe it will be Neil working the afternoon shift this year, we shall see. We’re interchangeable in that respect.
The walk over to Nimborio was pleasant, as always, and a wonderful homemade soup lunch, with bread from the village bakery (one of) that was still warm when we bought it, and a very pleasant day it was too. Also, while trundling back, we stopped and arranged with Habib that we’d like a couple of his mates to help us move, maybe Tuesday and Wednesday afternoon, the heavy stuff. No problem. How much? Whatever. Okay, will make firm arrangements on Monday. Whatever. Okay.
I’m going to leave you with some photos; you can click one and then run a slideshow, or browse them one at a time. I’ll be back later in the week, as long as the phone/internet change over goes smoothly… Meanwhile, don’t forget Adriana’s twice a week Symi blog which you can read here. http://adrianas-symi.blogspot.gr/
