Green Monday. Jane's plan is to go on our second annual outing to Harry's cabin, to help him out and have a picnic. So take hamburgers, beer and a large salad and drive to Agia Anna, a village a few miles outside the city. Jane and I paint boards, Joe sprays weed killer and the guys make part of a complicated addition to the back of the cabin, which is supposed to become a pergola with both shade and a means of locking up the outside things safely.
This last of some importance, as Harry has had problems with theft, both premeditated (an expensive stove) and casual (locally based soldiers "borrowing" chairs and leaving them down the road). Also unbelievable claims of having believed the cabin to be abandoned! Lovely day. Can see the improvements in the cabin since last year. Neighbours also in holiday mode, with kids flying a kite and families eating outside. Bells sound in the late afternoon as the goatherd bringing his charges down from the hills behind the cabin.
