A couple of weekend sunrise shots to show you today. One taken from the house, and one from further up in the village.
Meanwhile, at night, the Symi Festival continues with more concerts in Yialos, and one later this week in the village square where, on Friday, a young band of Symi musicians will be playing from 21.00 onwards. You can find the festival programme on the town hall website https://www.symi.gr/ — it’s under Current Affairs, but you might need to zoom in to read it (in Greek), or use the QR code to send it to your phone.
I’m sure I had something of interest to tell you this morning, but if I did, it’s now gone. Maybe it was about the festival, maybe not. I know I’ve not done much this weekend except write a blurb for the new book, finish my final edits, discuss the cover with my designer, commission an illustration, and do some publicity via those promos I take part in. There’s one at the bottom of the page for you today; pure romance with lots of bodice ripping and heavy breathing by the looks, but all available in Kindle Unlimited.
So, apart from that, we’re starting the week with no great news from up here. There may be something more exciting along in a day or so because I have to go to the post office to pay my insurance bill – yahoo, such thrills. I have been trying to do it online, but my bank won’t let me for some reason. All other bills, sure, no problem, but this one… And did you know, there’s an insurance tax too? So, if you’re sensible and lucky enough to be able to have private heath care, thereby removing some of the burden from the state, they bung on a 15% tax on the value/cost of your insurance? If you ask me, the government should give us 15% off the cost because I’m not costing them anything. Anyway…
And here’s that promo – have a click and a browse, it costs nothing, and you might find something to put on your kindle or in your beach bag for those lazy days by the sea. Go on, you know you want to.
