Harry and Ailsa's fiftieth wedding anniversary. The actual anniversary was on the weekend, but they've kindly waited until we returned from Crete. Heavy dust in the air today and a pretty high particulate count, but still warm into the evening. We meet up with H&A, Jane and Bill and another couple we hadn't previously met (Ian and ?) at Masala, an Indian restaurant on Dhekelia. Nice round corner table and the restaurant is quiet enough for conversation - a welcome rarity in Cyprus. First curry in some time, and hot. Kept hot, too, in individual little pots over burners on the lazy susan. Lots of laughter and lovely evening.
