Fri.9th.Dec.
Good news! Woke up this morning, it wasn't raining, the washing on the line was dry and the washing from last night is drying. Rode our luck and put in another load. The sun came out and it was a lovely morning. We climbed down an overgrown path down the cliff face to the sea front to take a walk. We were sad to see that the Italian disease of scattering vast amounts of rubbish in picturesque seaside locations is alive and well here. There was litter everywhere, I can't describe how much, and small knots of local people lined the sea front chatting, socialising and totally ignoring the mess which was ankle deep around them. I find it difficult to believe that it could happen anywhere else. Perhaps the dustmen are on strike, it's the only logical explanation. I'd like to think so. I must enquire. We couldn't get back to the site quick enough, to think that in summer this place is full of holidaymakers, Italian and foreign, they must clean up their act around here then. We got the chairs out and found a puddle of sunshine fighting it's way through the trees and followed it around. It was warm and pleasant and we enjoyed it for about 3 hours. Got the washing dry, chilled out. Nice relaxing day, tomorrow Sicily. Watch this space.
