Certificates and Trains
So, the news today… I printed off our vaccination certificates yesterday. It’s so easy to do with the right logins and an understanding of the language, but it can be done for you at the KEP office if needs be. We were out for a mild celebration on Sunday afternoon, which quickly turned into an evening, and saw some visitors. There were also some yachts in the harbour, which is a sign that things are starting to pick up again, albeit slowly. There was some confusion over inter-island travel, but the last I heard, we can travel between islands with not much hassle, but papers and tests etc., are needed if coming from the mainland. Not that I intend to go anywhere just yet, though I need to go to Rhodes soon for stage two of my new residency card. Best to check official sites before travelling wherever, and not rely on gossip from Facebook.
Other than that, it’s back to the editing with a deadline looming. The new book blurb and info will be revealed on my other blog this coming Saturday, maybe even the cover. If you want to find out what I’m writing, you can click through and take a look at www.jacksonmarsh.com where, last Saturday, I wrote a piece about how trains feature in my Victorian Mystery series. (Our very own Symi travel guru, Andy, gets a mention and says a few words too.) There’s also a bit of chat about how I grew up next to a steam railway line, and why steam trains and train journeys have always been an interest of mine. On which note, the Symi train was moved from its winter place by the clock tower some time ago. I’m not sure where it is right now, but I look forward to hearing its bell and happy-clappers soon, but not, perhaps the repetitive Zorba soundtrack.
And now, a collection of Neil’s more recent photos.
