What can I tell you? It’s quiet around here, but not as quiet as it has been and nowhere near as busy as in the past, but that’s to be expected. Throwing up hands in despair at those who have been putting out messages on Fakebook telling people not to bother with masks and caution. Also, those who gather in large crowds, and (on other islands) groups of holidaymakers thinking because they are in a ‘safe’ country they can ignore all advice and hold beach parties, crowd together and so on, only to find they return home infected (possibly from the plane, airports, the bus, of before they even left home). End result? Scotland now says Greece is ‘unsafe’ and hundreds of sensible people are inconvenienced. Meanwhile, schools here are put off going back until 14th, but they will have to start soon as children haven’t had a lesson since March, or have only been for eleven staggered days since then. Only hoping that the teachers who live on the mainland return a week early, and quarantine before going into school. Anyway…

It’s bound to be a tricky month because September is usually the busiest month for north Europeans coming here on holiday, but we’ll just have to wait and see. If you don’t see me out and about so much, or wonder, when I am, why I’m not sitting with you, it’s because I’ve got my own rule of not getting close to anyone until they’ve been here a long enough length of time. Not being OTT, just trying to set an example. Anyway…

On a lighter note, a picture of a mule.
