Good grief it's Thursday again!...

Our first BBQ of the summer.

 Not much to say this week.  The weather has cooled off somewhat since last week but never the less we managed to have a BBQ on Sunday.  However the wind turned decided chilly and we had to put up the old windbreak in order to make it bearable to frazzle some animal parts for our supper.

It's the only time I ever get to be in charge of the cooking so it would have been rather churlish to have resorted to the cooker and handed the tongs over to Sandra.

But it turned a tad chilly and we got the windbreak out.

We still managed to have a super supper and the meat was all cooked to perfection.

We have been watching the financial developments in Greece with baited breath waiting and hoping for some deal to come along and rescue our adopted country.  As I write this, they are still formulating an acceptable solution for all parties concerned.  I do hope something turns up soon as I would hate to see any more suffering heaped on the ordinary people of Greece.  For anyone who reads this blog who may be considering a holiday in Greece, please just do it, there are no real problems on the Islands and resorts in fact any protest are only likely to be witnessed in the major cities like Athens.  Reports from Lefkas, Corfu and many other holiday destinations from friends suggest that there is absolutely no problems at all using plastic to get money from ATM's or food in supermarkets.  All of the taverna's are open for business with full menu availability and greatest of all the Greek people are still as friendly and welcoming as they have always been.  So get one of those bargain deals for Greece which are now being advertised by the travels agents and treat yourself to a couple of weeks sun and help them to work their selves into a recovery.   Please don't believe all that the media prints or transmits just ask people who are there and on the ground, they know!
