On Wednesday evenings I sit on my roof and wait for the lights of the Proteus to go past Pedi so that I can let those waiting down in the harbour know that she is on her way... :D

Well I'm coming in on 21 October so I'd like a red carpet, a brass band and a cool glass of Rose wine. First to the harbour with the wine can carry my bags to the hotel.

I hope it's a flat roof, Adriana.

Carry your bags, Buzzy? We train the Symi Spiders to do that for us.

OOOOOOh MYYYYYYYYY Gooooooooodddddddd. Just searched a photo of one of these spiders. I hope I never see one as if I do I'm likely to jump in the sea and swim back home in panic. Will they be around in October??

Freshly killed snakes. Mmmm, delicious. Little garlic, olive oil, pinch of oregano. 2 to 3 hours at 180C. Stavros would be proud of you.

Hi Buzzy, snakes, spiders etc that nothing wait till you meet the triffids and the scary hairy man from Nimborio, be scared, very scared. If I were you just forward your tickets to me and Mazie and we will go and keep an eyeon Kojac. Dont you think that sounds like a good plan?

:D :D :D I like your style Buzzy!

The spiders though VERY big :o are very shy so you're unlikely to see them and the only snake I've ever seen was a dead one.
