Another Pleasant Day

Another pleasant day yesterday, though still with a chill in the air, and damp around the place. After work, I took a walk down to the main road and back up it, had a look at the new treatment plant, which is coming on, wandered home again, made lunch, did the piano thing, and made some more mess on the kitchen table, as you do.

I’ve heard on the grapevine that the first of the seasonal cruise ships have come into or will very soon arrive at Rhodes, so it was appropriate (or not) that yesterday, I also watched a documentary about the Costa Concordia tragedy, before going on to watch Harry build Titanic while I made my locomotive. I don’t think the arrival of one of two ships into Rhodes will affect us here, unless some passengers manage to organise themselves into a day trip on the island ferries, rather than the day boats of summer. I’ve been in Rhodes in the winter when a cruise ship has come in, and various tourists’ shops around the Old Town have opened up for the afternoon, then closed again until the next one comes along. Well, you might as well if you’re local.

Random shot of an old building. (For the morning light and colour.)

Anyway, today is about the usual writing and taking a brief walk, and then, maybe, seeing if I can fix the bugs I currently have in my newly downloaded version of Word (under 365). I put a cry for help up on the Microsoft board and have had the usual reply from the technicians telling me to do exactly what I have already done. I won’t bore you with them here, though I might if I can’t fix them. If you’re in the Microsoft community and know your way around Word, you could take a look at the post. (For #3, I have already done what they told me to do and it still happens.) Here’s the link.

I know, that’s all boring computer talk, but that’s how it is here. I’ll leave you with a shot from yesterday’s walk.
