Entertaining!

May 2013

On Thurs, May 2nd, after a morning at Art, I returned home to find we had visitors, Naomi and Pete with their friend Gary, had turned up.  Naomi was keen to provide a day or two's labour as a wedding present - which was a lovely thought, but Thursdays are Art in the morning for me, and Band Practice in the evening for Dave, so it was impractical that day.

I arranged a little meze for lunch, and we had our first communal meal in the house!
A week later, the afternoons are warm, and the sun shines enough to provide electricity for various amps, so band practice moved to the living room of the house.  Another acquisition from Joe and Amanda is a second fridge, which now lives in the 'kitchen' of the building site, filled with beers, and only turned on on Thursday mornings ready for practice.
On Saturday, May 11th, Naomi did come back and put in a long hard day's labour on the site.  Dave had been called away to do boaty things, so I was extra grateful for the company.
5pm, lots achieved, Dave home - time for a little meze and a glass of something.
Thurs 16th, and we had a surprise turnout for band practice - which was more of a jam session with so many musicians in one place - seven in total!  Guitars, bass, drums and mouth organ, lots of bluesy riffs rolling across the olive groves.  Lucky we have no close neighbours, although painting Amanda down the hill said she enjoyed the music while gardening.
Traffic chaos on the track!
