Sorry for the delay in replying Davey H. Nice to catch up with you and Dave and Linda. We won't be out again this year as too much to do on the new house so see you again next year

This week's FGT was held at the new Crusoes Pub. We had quite a group for a good catch up. There was Dave and Bernie (remember her grill room next to Maggie's), myself, Dave and Linda and we were joined later by Kath and Rob. We were hearing about the effects of the last big thunder storm when lightning struck Dave and Linda's house and two neighbours. Dave and Linda had their boiler blown up but one neighbour lost their TV, android box, router etc! They were lucky, Dave and Linda's roof caught fire with their previous strike. Luckily the torrential rain put it out! Steve's absence for his mum's funeral back in Wales gave us a chance to marvel at her longevity and her thirst for knowledge and adventure almost to the end. It was very pleasant sitting in the shade in the bar and it was a while before the meeting broke up.

Last wee's FGT was held at Theodoros Resort on a very hot morning. Shade and a cold drink were number one priority. We had a small group with Dave and Linda, Chrissa and her partner and Steve and myself. We had a good old natter about all things Roda, including the disadvantages of buying here without first renting for a while. Roda and Corfu are completely different when our lovely visitors are not here and some people don't take to it. Others enjoy having the place nice and quiet and still enjoy good spells of lovely weather. Dave and Linda brought us up to date with the continuing saga of their boiler that was struck by lightning the other week. Spare parts on their way from Athens, hopefully in time for the boiler to be fixed for their visitors. The next FGT will be at Newport.

CHANGE OF VENUE
For anyone visiting Roda next week, we’ve changed the venue of the Forum Get-Together on Wednesday August 9th at 11am, to include Theo’s new bar restaurant 'La Luz.’ Pop in for a chat if you’re in the village ...

Back from our beloved Roda last Friday and finally finding some peace and quiet to write a line or two. So lovely to catch up with Steve and Jan at a very quiet FGT at Skouna..........there was only the four of us but still plenty to talk about. A wonderful two weeks catching up with old friends and making new ones, had a car from Dromeas for a week so ventured further than we had before and loved the Achellion Palace and the stunning views from the Kaiser's Throne. Amazing dinner in Old Perithia as always and Yummies and Nicos never disappoint whereas La Luz wasn't what we'd hoped for...........the staff appeared very glum.........I hope that's a one off as it's a beautiful location and deserves to do well. Yet again two weeks wasn't long enough but back to work to earn the pennies so we can return again. Best wishes to Jan and Steve..........Sarah and Ian.

I can’t believe you’re back home already, Sarah, but it sounds as though you had a good time around the island ... I’m glad you got to Old Perithia in spite of the fires. Hope you enjoy your trip to Naples ... I expect the heatwave will have gone away by then. See you both next year,
Steve & Jan
