I love the melancholy feeling of the tearful window, with all the beauty beyond it, Anne. Well done.

Those are beautiful photos, Kerstin. I love the island between and beyond the 'bouldered' rock structures.

Such a Wonderful long stay, Anne. When you do something, you certainly do it right 8) ! You must surely be in love as we all are... with the memories ever crossing your mind and heart.

It's a treat imagining you and your children climbing to your house and then going inside to rest, then to the patio to relax with various styles of drink, Hydriot. And her exam results? Does she have them, yet?

Lizzy, I shall think of you thinking of us on Saturday! Traditionally, we always eat our first supper at Lulu's in Miaoulis, so you can visualise us exactly that evening. Don't worry: I haven't forgotten I owe you for your kind help up at the house in 2007. It is just a question of when our paths next coincide.

My daughter's exam results will be known on 20 August. I will let you know by pm which university she will be going to.

Melancholy overwhelms me. I can feel being there.

No problem on the house... a very interesting experience that also gave Sherry and I some very special time together, with lots of laughs for different reasons. 'Owing' aside, I look forward to our paths crossing again... and to your PM.

Anne,

That was lovely. I watched the subsequent 'dance instruction' video also. Thank you for these.

Best regards,
Mary
