It is getting harder and harder to find those unspoilt places isn't it?..... especially if you're looking for them where there's sunshine and the sea.Helsiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15136273834165751276noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13883584.post-57293880558027704182012-07-17T19:12:10.418+01:002012-07-17T19:12:10.418+01:00The sunset at the beach -- gorgeous!The sunset at the beach -- gorgeous!rhymeswithplaguehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10870439618129001633noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13883584.post-1009828036307446942012-07-17T15:33:37.026+01:002012-07-17T15:33:37.026+01:00I really do like the colours that your new camera ...I really do like the colours that your new camera captures.

A few years ago, Shirley and I visited the Greek ghost town of Kayakoy on the southern coast of Turkey...BTW we saw NO signs of Greece's economic turmoil apart from some unfinished building projects.<br />EARL GRAY Like John Lennon said - "Above us only sky".<br />ARCTIC FOX You are right to detect a note of disappointment from this miserable old sod though the sunshine and the sea were so lovely and soothing. No Tetley's in sight so I had to resort to "Mythos" and "Fix" Greek beers.Yorkshire Puddinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06019673884543913089noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13883584.post-38029335656994684102012-07-17T10:00:07.070+01:002012-07-17T10:00:07.070+01:00I don't know.... some people are never happy.....I don't know.... some people are never happy..... there's a palpable sense of disappointment in your tone mister pudding..... I think you'll have to travel much farther afield to find some of those unspoiled lands you refer to..... tourism has ballooned since the seventies as you're obviously now aware..... and you're obviously aggrieved that there was no oirish bar for a soothing pint of Guinness!!ArcticFoxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07406779213296821110noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13883584.post-39714809559548101622012-07-17T08:31:09.122+01:002012-07-17T08:31:09.122+01:00what's that blue stuff above the land!?

Apart from the car hire bloke, any other signs of the crisis hitting home, or maybe tourism is the only thing still working?<br />By pure amazing chance, I'm also reading de Berniere at the moment (Birds wwithout wings)- and can highly recommend the one you've read, and the rest of the trilogy!Brianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06613762050863476962noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13883584.post-68342876066892666722012-07-17T07:29:43.861+01:002012-07-17T07:29:43.861+01:00So this past week we have both sat under the Greek...So this past week we have both sat under the Greek skies and swum in the beautiful sea YP....we returned from Paxos last night.....and today I'm going to try to make the beautiful giant butter bean starter we enjoyed so much.....although the food at home never tastes as it does abroad does it? sounds like you and Shirley had a wonderful time...how lucky we are.libbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05552884005601003691noreply@blogger.com
