Lovely morning for the Saturday market. No sign of the honey lady though. Hoping she’s just one of the sellers who take January off because business is slacker. Her honey is a little more expensive than that at the supermarkets but thicker and nicer. Do get broccoli from the produce man as well as a couple of books - an Ian Rankin and Aprons and Silver Spoons, memoirs of a 1930’s London kitchen maid, from the animal rescue charity stall where we have a chat with Beverley who is working here as usual.
Surprised to spot a photo of a Canada is Not for Sale hat in the Cyprus Mail. Cyprus not usually particularly interested in fellow Commonwealth countries other than the UK. Not particularly anti American either. Happy to court US assistance in upgrading air and naval bases “for humanitarian purposes” while experiencing relatively minimal. complaints about the sovereign British base in Akrotiri being used by American as well as British planes assisting Israel in its attacks on Gaza.
