Collect watch from watchmaker used by Bill and Jane. New works, so as good as a new watch for €20 as promised. Think we have changed watchmakers.

Coffee on the waterfront at McDonald's. Not much for atmosphere, but good beach watching and good filter coffee, which is a rarity in Cyprus where the standard alternative to Cyprus coffee is Nescafé. Man sitting near us is one we overheard yesterday talking to a young girl about how he never went with women who were fat. Think of newspaper personal columns where men frequently specify that the woman they are looking for must be slim; virtually never a requirement expressed by women. Also think of the high standards of appearance demanded by the most unprepossessing men.
