Santorini By Night

Live Blog

Live from Cumbria….

And Crete..

Em showed us her engagement ring…

We played guess the celebrity….

And I did my talking belly trick.

Nida In The Midst

We drove to Nida plateau (1400m) at 20kph in thick midst expecting a very wet walk. But there was daylight on the far side.

It was raining in Northern Crete but we broke through to the sunny South, where we found a beautiful forest but not the Kameres Cave which we were looking for.

And a goat’s skull.

Of note Poppy was awful. She has chased her last goat, and can expect to spend more weekends at home.

Unilever Everywhere

While I’m on the topic of Pot Noodles; I was surprised to see that they are owned by Unilever. Well quite surprised. What is remarkable though is that a moment later I saw that my authentic Greek passata also carries the trademark U.

Courses from the same stable:

Pot Noodles and Cheese On Toast

Mum and Dad have stocked my cupboard with food from home.

Curry flavoured pot noodles are the best and remind me of the times I was ill and missing school, but would recover in time for lunch and a pot noodle. And then Going For Gold on TV.

And cheddar cheese on toast, prepared with a little mayonnaise underneath and Worcester Sauce on top.  Like the advert.

Kingfisher

The kingfishers in the harbour stay a safe 20 meters away and disappear when I get my camera out. This is as close as I can get without a telescopic lens.
