I finally found out about the "hay" meaning. You just gotta be on yer guard against this chappie Terry, aint ja?
( I hope when I finally meet him I can keep my 2 euros in the back pocket and make him buy all the alcohol - I'm not proud! )
Arillas Today? - Take my word for it - It's looking good , the weather's good and a lot of activity going on all round. The last thing they want is a "pest" like me clicking pics.
Just as well really, as I left the camera at home. ( Is this an age thing? )
What really peeves me off is , no camera and driving down into Arillas from Afionas, finding the longest snake I have ever seen basking in the road!
It has to have been 3 foot long, an understatement as it covered half the road, and bronze in colour. I slowly crept forward and then It slid away in the bushes.
A beast of a snake! - And no camera! - Wotapic I donna have! ( Life still can be cruel )
On a lighter note. - Met Sandy and pals who came round for a late coffee/Ouzo this morning. She looks well and still unwinding, as I type, I think. I hope she won't mind me mentioning that her father is 89 years old! If I can look and feel that fit at 89 then I will be a happy man indeed! ( If he's 89 then I have to be around 38 right now! )
Went to Brouklis last night and had a very good time. Not a late night as we were both still a bit "heady" with this hay fever that Terry kindly diagnosed.
=But it's great to have a few good chats with Dimitris, Litsa,Noufris and Nickos. And.... not forgetting that little bundle of "chuckling" joy of a baby.
We make the most of it now as, from May onwards, a busy place it will be.
Easter here is bigger than I thought it would be, Everywhere you drive you see:-
"Kalo Paska" painted on the roads. - Happy Easter. How nice is that?
( In England the local council would probably prosecute for that! )
On Sunday we're invited round to our neighbours house, from 11am plus for some spit lamb and goodies etc. - Just turn up and enjoy at a time to suit. Can't be bad!
An old saying is:- " If you want to get a head in life then go early"
I may go a little later as I don't want the head! - Just some tender meat will do me.
Cheers
