Web Cams

[Jerry]

Adriana, any news of the web cams, just had a look and saw the picture with the date 14 July 2006, has there been any reference to the lack of the web cam that I have missed or have the gremlins from Cyberspace ended the service?. I see the picture from your window at the office most days but miss the updates throughout the day.

[Ozzie Geoff]

C'mon Jerry, have a peek out of you own window. Look beyond the square, you'd be stunned at what you saw...true.

[Adriana]

It wasn't the gremlins - it was the operating environment(meltdown!) - so we are operating on manual at the moment - me and my Olympus!

Must confess, the focus is better and it gives me an excuse to look out of the window in the context of work!

[Jerry]

Lucky you, if only I had such a view in reality, I have to close my eyes to picture your view. I am looking out of my window, continuous rain all day, most roads in the area flooded. Originally forcast for 75mm rainfall in 24 hours, this much fell in 8 hours. Unfortunatly one man has died in the floods this morning. The forcast is for it to ease by the morning, and hopefully the water will have gone down, 3 of the people at work have already been flooded out.

[Jerry]

Thanks Adriana for the late afternoon view from your office, now I won't have to dream this afternoon of the boats in the harbour.

[Adriana]

To cheer up the waterlogged I have just put up some new photos on my diary page :( :( :( :( :( :( :(

[Adriana]

Apparently webcams showing harbour views or anything that could be described as 'sensitive' are longer allowed for security reasons. Makes sense, I suppose. We'll just have to make sure that it is always aimed in an innocuous direction!

[maziemoo]

That's a shame but I understand .

Youtube obviously doesn't count !

[Kojak]

Adriana, you've now set my imagination wandering about the webcam picking up "sensitive" things in the harbour... - Richard furtively ordering another Mythos? Maziemou and myself having an assignation by the fish slab at Manos? Someone nominally on a diet sneaking out to the chip machine late at night? You might even catch Costas the Taxi smiling!

[maziemoo]

We might be glad of the restrictions Kojak ops: !

[Kojak]

I should hate to be caught with my...... socks down Mazie!

[maziemoo]

Wouldn't do for me to be seen removing them either would it ops: !

[Joanie]

Or even to be seen helping him back on with them Mazie

[maziemoo]

That would be ops: ops: !

[Sweet Sue]

Hey Kojak leave Costas alone .. he always smiles at me and ..... kisses the back of my hand and ..... has serenaded me on a number of occasions.
Joking aside, have you ever seen him dance .. he is so light on his feet, it's amazing.

[Kojak]

You might have caught him in a good mood, Sue, He once blew a kiss at me - but he'd just returned from a visit to "ladies" in Rhodes!

[Jerry]

Costas dancing is a sight to behold especially when he has bare feet, turning black as the evening goes on. I think his secret is to replace lost fluids with Wine, Beer etc faster than his rate of perspiring.

[maziemoo]

I've yet to encounter this Costos fellow, sounds like a character !

Hope those of you who are around end of September beginning of October haven't forgotten the Greek dancing evening we talked about !

[Kojak]

He's the "happy" taxi driver, Mazie... NOT!

[maziemoo]

Ahh, though I've never used a taxi on Symi, I may now have an idea of who the fellow in question is !

Trying to be sympathetic, perhaps it's not exactly an easy life being a taxi driver of Symi and so the poor fellow has had the smiles beaten out of him by demanding tourists !
