Boxing Day. And very quiet here. Quieter in some ways than Christmas Day. The Cyprus Mail, the English language paper, published on Christmas Day - a lone copy remains at the newsstand as proof - but its Sunday edition which includes extra sections with the radio and television guides and the puzzles is not in evidence. Oh no, today is holiday - no paper today. And therefore no telly guide either.

So, lazy day, with random TV and warm sun and extremely good leftovers, including the chicken and wine sauce and J's cabbage rolls, the tastiest I've ever had, with brown rice, caramelised onions, mushrooms and smoked pork loin. Leaves most cabbage rolls miles behind. He's amazingly good with a two burner hotplate and no oven. Though we do have the magic ingredient - time.
