Well\u2026 as well as the weather turning on us, we have another IT disaster.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The day started off well with a leisurely coffee and Brecky on the veranda.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We then headed into Kassiopi town, Phil and I in Ollie and the ladies taking a walk. Phil had to check out the scooter hire, \u20ac35 a day here, but \u20ac30 in the next one we tried\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After a quick stroll through the town we had a coffee in the sea front. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

At some point during the day, Sue\u2019s phone started to play up again. The display went dim and then the display showed noisey big purple bands across the screen. It then went dead and unresponsive. Crap. We\u2019ll have to see if we can find a phone repairer again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The sun came out in the afternoon and so we had a bit of time around the pool.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Phil contacted the villa owners and they suggested a phone repair store Germanos in the next town around the coast, Acharavi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And in the evening back into Kassiopi for a meal at the Tavernaki. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
