The last day for friend Anne who has been staying with us so once again sitting in the sunshine was the order for most of the day. Glorious sunshine with temperatures around 84F was a good way fro her to end her quest for an instant suntan before going back to the grey skies and rain that appears to have engulfed UK whilst she was here.
The only task for Anne for the day was the completion and laying of her commemorative stone as per the tradition now for 'visitors'. Anne's stone has a picture of a frog. She 'collects' them and has a whole range from glass, crystal, ceramic and felt at her home in Harrow. I think her image is good don't you as its not easy to draw and paint a frog?
Once Anne was dropped at the airport there was time for a swim to complete the mandatory 20 lengths and bike ride along the coast. It seems a long time since we have rode together and with the sun shining yet a cooling breeze blowing it was truly lovely to be out and about. Back home a dip in the tub, glass of wine and watching Andy Murray playing tennis at the French Open. Despite our support he lost!
Fairly early to bed only to be woken at 0230 with the alarm going off at the house number 4 which is owned by some Cypriots who visit at the weekends. Both myself and Georges from number 5 where out in the street but nothing could be seen and eventually after 30 minutes of ringing the alarm at last stopped itself. On inspection in the morning it a plant pot had blown from a window sill and must have been the cause.
