Adrian writes about seeing dongas on her pre-breakfast stroll. Is this related to:
"Pete Ormay who built a new donga / Observed, "Just as well it aint longa, / If larger in size, the wind thrust would rise. / A much longa donga needs be stronga."] ?

I hope so.

We too were puzzled as to what a donga could be. However a quick Google search revealed it to be what we Europeans would call a gully.

:geek: Hic. Get that alarm clock at the ready :!:

Findlay is not doing too badly. Went back today to get the stitches out and nearly fainted twice. Men, what are they like. Mind you it does look quite brutal. Just rehabilitation now with plenty of physio. That should be fun. Always maintain physios are sadists!

Oh no. Findley McSporran will want to streak on his balcony now. You might have started a new September trend, as Richard says strange folk go to Symi in September. When do you plan to be there Richard?
