Views from the balcony
Sunday went well, I got some writing done, another first draft chapter, I tidied up and sent off my next assignment for my scriptwriting course, and I proof read a couple more chapters of ‘Remotely.’ We’re getting there! The weather was good too, a little cooler than of late and Monday was also slightly cooler. We’ve had some cloud in the mornings but they soon go away as the sun comes through; it’s still rather humid though.
I’ve been lazy again with my photos and so today’s are from the balcony. It’s amazing what you can see from up here: the boats coming and going, a hydrofoil from, I assume, Turkey on a day trip on Saturday, the barge and tugs working on the new jetty, people having fun on jet-skis and water skiing from Nos Beach, Neil on the Panagia heading to Rhodes for his appointments and to meet his brother, ‘Old Bruiser’ the ancient stray who hangs around below the house, the kestrels, Martin (the swallow) has brought his family to see us on the line outside, there are three young’uns and a couple of older swallows, there are the Pattersons, the pigeons, and all the folk going about their days in the harbour. Oh, and the train too!
We’ve still been having the strange, rather robotic, Tannoy checks going on at night and in the late afternoons. I still don’t know what it’s all about but I expect I’ll find out in time. The neighbour has been working on his house, from six in the morning (quietly) to get roofing work done before the sun gets too hot, there’s always some kind of kafuffle going on over the road in the morning though it doesn’t disturb us at all. I’ve got the house vaguely ready for this week’s guest and we’ve been feeding the stray cats with Jack’s leftovers and some cat food we’ve bought specially for them. So, all is carrying on as per normal here and here are a few more images to show you views from the balcony.
