Chora, Sikinos today Life happened before The Internet and before blogging. In my early to mid-twenties I travelled to Greece several times. It was almost wholly about the isles of Greece - not the mainland. Once I travelled to Greece aboard a bus - The Magic Bus - from London  but otherwise I managed to muster enough money for the airfares.  When I got there, I mostly slept on beaches with occasional nights in cheap "pensions" or  rented rooms as I didn't have much spare money. In those days it was amazingly cheap to eat and drink in Greece so most nights were spent in tavernas eating authentic Greek food and drinking Greek beer, retsina and  occasional ouzos which could be deadly - causing severe memory loss if you had too many. In the daytime I swam in crystal clear bays, walked for miles, read books  or hooked up with other travellers. Then I might board another boat to travel to a different island. Since joining The European Union, Greece has change...

 Tuesdays used to be choir days.  For the next nine months they are now my study day. Tonight until nine, I have my lectures. Before that this afternoon, I’m having special help by the IT department in order to get my head around Google classroom.  This morning and early afternoon , I’m studying. I miss choir, but have solace in the understanding that I will be returning  So it’s study day today, work tomorrow and Mrs Harris Goes To Paris on Thursday. Saturday I’m cooking dinner for my family  My first supper party for them for over four years. from Going Gently https://ift.tt/LNnpRMx
