Grand-kids

 We had a night out with some of the family and all the grandkids.  We took them down to the Navy beach taverna/canteen where we can all eat and drink at subsidised prices.

It was a most enjoyable evening.  Naturally enough.  All the 'kids' get on well and there's a lot of laughter.  They're all on the island for the summer but it's difficult getting them together.  Most have summer jobs.  Luli is doing summer lessons to get ready for next years University exams.

The aftermath 

We managed to chow through 40 kalamakia, chicken and pork on a skewer, a dozen kebabs (spicy mincemeat on a skewer) a couple of salads and lots of tzatziki and fried potatoes.  Jamie is the tzatziki king, he always manages to finish one bowl of it on his own

So we were once told by our parents
