Hi, Neil.   Thanks for another brilliant report.  Others are right, reading them does transport you back for a brief while.   June seems such a long time ago now, but I have good memories of our meeting for the first time.
Keep up the good work.    Heather says `hello`.

Arillas Today eagerly awaits the arrival of Erja and pals.

An "Ionian Tanker" has been busy, most of the day, filling the "Nuts" kegs and a Mythos truck was patiently waiting to also discharge it's load.
Three W's at Stephanos has nailed their tables to the floor and have laid on extra staff for Monday afternoon.
The weather is on it's best behaviour for them and at 7pm many guests still enjoy the 31 deg on offer.

This pm saw 75% of parking places in use which aint bad for a Friday as it's a "changeover".  'Sposed to be a twinge quieter Mondays n Fridays. Wotsthatallabout?

Met Poppy and Spiros of Bardis Sun yesterday and son George today and what lovely people they all are. It makes me feel really bad that it's taken me 2 years to say "Hello"

I missed meeting Dave Mull and Jenny which is a shame as I wanted a natter with them both. Sorry guys. I also missed Jo-Jo recently. So many people to see. It's a crying shame I have to fit work in between everything!
Still time too catch Barry and team though. - Not in Nut today - Give it time!

A little birdie tells me that Paul n Maria are back soon.
Tried to keep it quiet eh? - Lots to tell you if we find you!

Sandy and Michelle having a good time methinks and another  meet with them is soon on the cards. Cheryl, Timbo and James "gatecrashing" the party on Monday with sharpened darts and looking forward to a few "japes n jests" with them all.
Hoping James gets a little sunburn before Wednesday night though as a darts game is organised. ( Need something to give me the edge )

Who else is in the way then? Plenty of beach to go round - Donchyerknow!
Cheers
Negg

Great report Neil... great excitement looming then for those Finnish girls.

Agree Poppy, Spiros and George are lovely... George is a brilliant artist..  Have you met Bobby yet, he is a great guy too... makes terrific cocktails.

Wish we were there too.  Love to everyone!

Riggers

I saw Erja and pals for a small while at Rainbow and got the impression they felt it was their obligationto visit as many places as they can in the shortest time as possible to reduce the stocks of said favourite brew.
( i THINK THEY WERE WINNING! )

Barry and Co, also there and had a short but enjoyable time with them. As did my neighbour Makis. He made to me the best compliment possible and said, after they left,
" We should have played less darts and talked more " and he was right .
( Darts can be an unsociable game )

Beach again looking good and temps once again the high side of 26 deg. It's 10:50 pm here now and little beads of sweat still trickle, from that bald patch that used to have hair, down each side of that poor excuse for a beard I have.
26 deg outside at 10:50 ? - Wotsthatallabout. Cuppa tea and bed methinks.

Cheers
Negg

Ah yous lot. For a second I felt as though I was there joining in.

Eggy, it's what I did. I so understand what erja and friends were doing. The doctor was not happy that I had spent 48 hours chasing up the local talent before getting stitched up.

You have some of my favourite people out there right now (but many still stuck here) and so glad you will see some of them.

Arillas Today should be mine....
