I’m a little out of kilter today, so I’ll not be staying long. My editing has been put back by two days because we got stuck in Rhodes due to gales, and I have promised to get the MS to the formatting team by Monday. So… Anyway… We got to Rhodes a little late but that wasn’t an issue for the health MOT test centre. We arrived at 8.00 and were out by 8.40 having done the biz under the insurance cover. The results were in our in boxes that afternoon, and we’ve made an appointment for the other part of the test, the full cardio, for next Friday. Neil also needed new glasses so after brunch at Kokoraki, he popped into Optical House next door, saw Orestes, had an eye test and ordered new glasses which will be here in a couple of weeks. No appointment, just a ‘Will you be able to see me today?’, followed by a cheery, ‘Yes, come in now…’ and there you go.
Kokoraki (the cockerel) is a brunch café in Rhodes where the sports shop used to be. That’s a very ‘around here’ way of describing a place, sorry. Come out of the Plaza, turn left, go to the end, and over the road, opposite the small park, kiosk and supermarket… It’s right there, and we were served by George from Neraida, Symi, who recognised us. Wonderful eggs and bacon on friend bread, coffee and a double mug of breakfast tea for me, for €20.00 Set us up nicely after being up since four and not having eaten. Right, here are some random photos to keep you going. I’m off.
