The past few days have been more of the same: David recording and gigging, me pottering about and trying to do some work, and Rudgey coming and going in his little red Hyundai shoebox.
The heatwave lasted until Wednesday and I believe temperatures topped 42 degrees (that’s over 100 Fahrenheit). On the hottest days, Kefallonia wasn’t visible at all! On Thursday it cooled down to 36 degrees, 32 on Friday – a lot more manageable. There is now a cool breeze and the heat feels very pleasant indeed.
On Friday, David took a few hours off and we went for a long overdue drive through the mountains in the north of the island. At one point we could see the sea on all sides, Kefallonia was clear as a bell and so was the Greek mainland. Zakynthos really is a beautiful island.
David, John and Rudgey did a gig in the Artemis bar in Argassi. They called themselves "Spikey and the Pikeys." They are giving a repeat performance in Deano’s Place on Monday night before Rudgey goes home. Thursday was the Safari Bar in Kalamaki and Rudgey took the cordless mike down the street to talk to potential customers!
Rudgey leaves on Tuesday. The Tusk boys arrive on Thursday. Andy will be staying with us, while Chris and his girlfriend are going to stay in a studio nearby.
I don’t have any photos yet but Irene rescued a little 5 week old kitten which she found wandering in the middle of a main road. The kitten has been named Shadow because she follows Tasha everywhere she goes. Shadow was skin and bone when Irene rescued her, weighing in at 300 grammes, but she is now eating around the clock, and sleeps beside Tasha in Tasha’s bed!
