A trip to Limassol this morning for Lillian to go to the offices of Ideal Property Solutions, who are management company looking after the compound. Much to discuss as a way forward to deal with those absentee home owners who still do not pay their maintenance charge.
Whilst Lillian was meeting I strolled the promenade. It is similar there in many ways to Larnaca with parks and walkways between the road and the beach, although the beach itself seems a lot narrower. Might be just because the tide was in. Despite it being a lovely day many of the sun loungers on the beach were empty. Is it that the full season is yet to start or are there just less people? Not having experienced Cyprus in June before its hard to tell. More people walk past our house along the road to Faros but you can hardly say its busy and our trip into the village a couple of nights ago the restaurants were still fairly empty.
On the way back we went collect the bike from the repair shop. I dropped Lillian at Marks & Spencer so she could browse and went on another 250 yards to the bike shop. There I made a great error. In order to get the bike into the car I had to remove the parcel shelf which I propped against a bush. A €5 charge. I got back in the car and drove off collecting Lillian on the way and it was not until we got home I realised that I had left the parcel shelf against the hedge. The time I got back to the Bike Shop it had gone. Who would want such a thing? I am so angry with myself! Drrrrrrrrr
Back home once again we swam, sat in the hot tub and pottered in the garden. Quotes have come in for the awning across the patio. The price is right with only €40 Euro between the two stores, for the same product, although one is recommending an electric motor. What to do?
The stone picture today is Evy and Kevin's. You can see Kevin's artistic talent shining through? LOL. Actually that is where we started with Chris and Nick. Write your name on the stone so we will let him off and glad that he came. Kevin is a Chelsea supporter so the date represents their Champions League win. Evy has very carefully written her name in Greek, with help from Lillian. The flower on the stone is a pressed bougainvillaea flower which has been pasted on. The little shell and starfish are from the beach. Well done Evy.
