Weather, witch and whatever
We’re not as weather-battered as some parts of the country, but it’s still been wet and windy for a few days. Water, water everywhere… Except in our tank when it ran out on New Year’s Day. At least that was only in the afternoon, and the town hall supply came in the following morning, a day early because of the bank holidays, so we were grateful for that. In other parts of the country, the weather is much worse, shipping has been banned until Wednesday morning leaving some people stranded in Rhodes for an extra two days, but that’s how it is down here in winter.
Luckily, we decided to unglue ourselves from the sofa for an hour and ‘popped’ down to Yialos to raid the bank during a break in the downpours, making it back to the village just in time. The walk up the Kali Strata after a month of inactivity was something of a challenge, but getting out to tramp the hill three or four times a week hasn’t been possible, so I’m out of practice.
Meanwhile, I’ve been beavering away on my classic horror models of the past and have put the Witch together. I now have the Invisible Man to do (yes, lots of gags around not being able to find it, and how do you know when it’s finished etc.,), and a first draft of a story to finish this week too… so I’d better get on.
