Waterbulb
This bulb just could not take more water. A result from the last storm with water flooding down the electric channel. Luckily it looks like we have got away with very little damage. Maria sent me this video this morning

7 weeks wihout socks done
7 weeks without socks were done yesterday and what an exit we had. Morning started a bit stressful by the taxidriver showing up an hour early. Taxi was booked for 6.30 so he just had to have an extra nap in the car. When leaving Sweetwater Bay we noticed big cloud formations in the sky and knew there was some rain forecasted. Just thought it was a perfect day to leave after so many days in the sun. Finally we had a taxi driver that did not thought he was Michel Schumacher or Ayrton Senna. Had a nice and easy drive to Ercan airport. Check-in was done without any problem…

Now at 11 pm strong winds and rain ravaging, moving furniture around. I believe this is the end of summer 2019. The proof of this will be on our next visit to…

A hairy night and Sunday roast
When writing this, it’s Monday, Tove and I have had our daily morning walk, had our shower and now just finished lunch. This day is predicted to be hot, 31 degrees officially. However, it’s overcast, so has yet not reached that high on the thermometer, but with more or less no winds, you can feel the heat and humidity. This October has been amazing. No wind, no rain and still high temperatures. Thinking back on the few last days, brings on a lot of good memories we can carry forward. On Friday we were invited to a gathering at Lin and Alan Murrell’s house. Incredible 25 people appeared, all English…
