Steve wasn't kidding when he told you it was hot here and today looks like it's going to be another scorcher. Flight left on time & only took 3 hours, one of our bags was the first on the conveyor and guess what ? the other one was the last ! A quiet day on the beach yesterday followed by dinner at Niko's - very nice as usual, then a gentle stroll around the village and on to Crusoes where we managed third in the quiz. There seems to be quite a few visitors here this week and there are so many familiar faces knocking about that walking anywhere takes twice as long as it should as we stop & chat to lots of old friends. Breakfast is calling now, then i'm off to the F.G.T. at the harbour Bar, after that i'll have to summon the strength to go & lie on a sunbed all, it's a hard life but someone's got to do it. pete.

Wall to wall sunshine this morning, already getting hot. Off to Corfu town in a minute to take care of a bit of business, Went to Maggies last night then went walkabout visiting Roxannes, Oscars & Mistral, everywhere in the village looked to be busy. Don't know if i was seeing things yesterday but could have sworn i saw Petra down at the beach, didn't know she was coming over again. Right, that's me done for now. pete.

God, you're making me so jealous. If you're in Roda, then so should I. Shouldn't be allowed. Glad you're having a good time though!

There's always something that you forget to take on holiday, this time it appears to be Jackie & Nikki ;D Boy was it hot down in Corfu town yesterday, the reading in the car on the way back was 36 degrees. as we were walking past The Afroditi last night a strange lady came dashing out shouting my name, i turned around and there was Kaz, alive & well albeit a bit tired since she'd been up since 02:00 hrs. Had the stifado in Roda Park last night & Debbie had the chicken kinegou - both lovely then stepped up a gear to get second place in the quiz at Crusoes, had a good laugh watching George watching the girls go by - nothing much changes over here. Found a few good riddle photos on the milk run this morning but it's getting harder to spot things, i see you're all strugling with Steve's latest one, if it's any consolation i haven't got a clue where it is, will have to go on the hunt for it. Time for breakfast now then a jaunt down to Acharavi, i'll report in again tomorrow. pete. Nikki, Pete & Yvonne said to say hello, they are here for 2 weeks staying at Theo's.

Now I really am jealous Pete. I should be there to get a better video of your hilarious performance with my new camera and the kids would love to be playing in the pool with Pete and Yvonne maybe next year. Say hi to them for me

Yeah, say hi to Pete & Yvonne from us too. Tell them it's the END of June next year! Need to see them for more than 1 night, next time round.
Yeah, imagine going on holiday & forgetting your main things - I forgot a memory card for my camera, but was able to replace that. You can't replace me & Nikki!!!!

The high temperatures can have all sorts of effects, especially when they continue over so many weeks.
George was telling me recently that honey quantity is reduced and the quality not so good because there is less blossom at times like these. The honeycomb he gave me to try was good though ...
