Walking into Nidri, saw this footprint in hardened mud. Dave reckons a badger, what do you think?
A surprise visit from three Greeks this afternoon, just as we’re siesta’ing. One of them, Nikos, we know, and he speaks good English. They were here to ask if they could look at our land contract as they have a dispute with the owner of the land at the lower end of our track. The lower end has been blocked with a fence and mud piles, so the road is completely inaccessible. Our visitors were very pleased to see our paper from the town hall which confirms that the road is a road as it could take a loaded donkey in 1928 – or something like that. We gave them photocopies, as they are taking it to court on Monday.
Off to the UK at 4am, driving to Athens. Wonderful Sue at Newstand is lending us her car, and putting up with the Punto for 9 days. Further updates from early April. Constantine may start the shuttering for concrete while we’re away, he says, but then, there’s been no real sense of urgency so far, so I think it’s a bit unlikely much will happen while we’re gone.
