Awoke to see some black clouds this morning but they are all gone now, perhaps they were the last of the depression of losing yet another penalty shootout - ah well, there's always next time. Took some nice photos of young Spyros & Eva yesterday, I'll put them on when I get back and had a good chat with May & Ricky after the football. There's not much else to tell you today, I've got to go to the police station at sometime to sign some paperwork related to the house build but at the moment in this heat " avrio" is taking over. pete.

Good evening all from Sunny Roda, it's been another scorcher here where the sea is like a warm bath, had a great time yesterday playing in the sea with Spyros & Eva, an empty water bottle, a few stones and very little else - who needs x boxes & playstations ! Had a great night with Jackie & Colin and finally met Sthelenssaint and his wife Jackie - that started to get confusing after a while. Kath & Rob won the quiz and I was lucky enough to win the stand up bingo - 24 euros thank you very much. Had a bit of a funny turn later on where i blacked out for a couple of minutes - went down lack a sack of spuds - the old face - never the prettiest - looks a right mess - but the worst part is the cracked rib which is a bit tender to say the least. A big thank you for all the usual kindness with Alex, Sara, Costa, Voula & Anita all offering to drive me to the clinic. Off to the chemists now for the best pain killers the've got, just hope they work. pete.

Hope everything is okay Pete and the painkillers have kicked in (pardon the pun!) I recommend a seat on the bench for a few days and No more Bingo!!! if that's what the shock of winning does to you!! Hope to meet you next week sometime

Oh dear Pete, that doesn't sound good, heat stroke I assume. That happened to me many years ago when I fainted on the road outside the Newport. Hope you feel better soon xx

Pete, you have my utmost sympathy - I cracked a rib about 12-13 years ago whilst in Roda (slipped on wet marble staircase and went ar** over t*t) and was popping painkillers as though there was no tomorrow - the only place I could get comfort was in the swimming pool -due to the buoyancy I suppose - I spent longer in the pool that fortnight than I have in all the years since combined!!! It took weeks for me to feel better but I was spoilt by Brian and Kelly who really looked after me well.
I hope you feel better very soon - take care.
very best wishes, Kath, Brian, Kelly & James xxx
