'Deaf' Week

 This is 'Silent' or 'Deaf' week for us.  Time to clean house and home and prepare for Easter. I had a haircut and colour yesterday. That's me done. 

The week ends with Saturday of Lazaros and then Palm Sunday

Then it's Holy Week. There's a special church service everyday winding up with the candlelight parade on Good Friday and the great Easter Sunday celebration

K got into gear and arranged for our annual garden clean up


Sani from Pakistan our happy helper
He had a huge smile on his face when I asked if I could take his photo


Ks 'treasures' are still there round the edges but the jungle of weeds has been conquered. He didn't leave a blade of green


This photo is from the internet but this is what we did before Easter every year when we lived in town.  We whitewashed all our steps and walls. 
The municipality white washes the steps and alley ways now. Or they will if the rain ever ends. 
Sani says he'll come back next week and whitewash our garden walls.  What a great lad


Covered in red silt 

More cleaning


Down on the harbour they're sucking this away quickly

  1. The Saharan dust has been making a mess everywhere - not good for the lungs either, I expect.

  2. Your Sani is perhaps a bigger treasure than those around the edges of your garden 😁
    Every week is Deaf Week for some of us 😅
