A week ago I looked at the 10 day weather forecast for Kalamata and it predicted rain this weekend and to the day it was correct ! Rain overnight, a foggy-misty morning and now 22 C and humid. At least I do not have to water the newly planted trees and shrubs, so there is an upside.
Its hard to believe that we are nearly in December and Christmas is fast approaching. Whilst Greece (in this part anyway) does not appear to have the frantic materialistic retail ''push'' towards Christmas, decorations have appeared on sale in several stores. Fortunately the British custom of sending Christmas cards to friends (who probably only live next door), and to your cat or dog has not arrived.....I never could understand why you would send the next-door neighbour a card when you can personally wish them "'the seasons greetings"'. Surely the personal greeting has to be better?
