THURSDAY 13^TH NOVEMBER

Another beautiful day and ideal for kite flying.  During breakfast on our balcony we met our new neighbours, Jean and Vic who are here to oversee the completion of their holiday home. In the village we bought more fresh fish, sardines for lunch and swordfish steaks for our evening meal. With all this fish we thought we would be bothered by the young cat but saw no sign of it.  We can only assume it has run away as last night Lambros was giving one of the cats a trim and whilst Keith was sat on the balcony Lambros came out of their house covered in fur! We never discovered which cat had the trim.

Maria disappeared up to the olive groves in the afternoon and Theo and Keith decided they would go and help, or hinder, her.  It was sunset when they returned Keith looking very disheveled.  It appears he and Theo were cutting and burning branches of a carob tree and one of the branches fell on Keith as he was dragging a previously cut branch so didn't see it falling.  Maria says Theo and I have been conspiring to get some insurance money!  

There was a lovely sunset tonight so I hope it is a sign for more good weather tomorrow.
