Meanwhile
Meanwhile, in the courtyard, the plants continue to struggle on. Because of Easter and bank holidays, our intake of water was restricted. Usually, it comes in on Monday, Wednesday and Friday, but last Wednesday was the last time the mains feed was turned on, Friday and Monday being holidays. We have been restricting ourselves as we only have a small tank, so the washing pile had built up, and the garden left mainly un-watered. Until yesterday when the feed was on again, and we were able to top up and relax. Often, when there’s a bank holiday and no water on the Monday, it comes in the next day instead, and that’s what’s happened this week, which is good news. So, we were able to water the plants today (some of which look rather forlorn, and I’m not sure if that’s what they are meant to look like at this time of year), and the washing machine is churning away. So, for today’s news from a tiny part of Symi, here is an update on the courtyard.
