Rain over. Happy for those celebrating Bayram. Not the hot sunny days of last week, but does struggle up to a cloudy 22.
We go down to our local supermarket. Not that we actually need anything, although we’re reasonably sure it will be open despite the holiday, but largely because the account that someone in our village posted online yesterday sounded rather alarming:
Expect to see some serious disruption, but it takes us some time to decide exactly where the damage must have been. Do appear to be a couple of drain covers sitting on the sidewalk. And a bit extra in the way of stones on the road but that’s about it. Not really hoping for major damage, but this is a bit of an anticlimax.
Supermarket is open as we thought so we pick up a few veg and are given hard candies in honour of Şeker Bayram - literally the sugar feast.
Owners of the orchard across the road seem to have visitors and are barbecuing. Can still hear the plaintive sounds of the goat though, so presumably he is not on the menu.
