They've given me another haircut - everyone seems to like it, but frankly I feel naked!!!! Big P did it on a hot and humid morning - I was left shorn and embarrassed, and he finished with my 'champagne' locks plastered to his sweaty arms, legs and forehead....... it wasn't pretty!!!!!
So the Bolton 13 are leaving tomorrow - the dads tell me it's been a pleasure - a nice group of people - the Robs are great fun, and little Sue, and Patrick and Val - but I heard on the grapevine that Little Lil has a thing for Charley............... As for Patrick - every night... 'more Nolans, more Nolans' - it can be quite wearing, apparently!
Ivan and Jane popped over a couple of times - Big P played the Divine Minnie Ripperton for them (it's their tune, apparently) - 26 years - Mr M says she must be a saint..............
Have heard rumours of young Elliott and Lauren hanging around in bars until all hours - but didn't believe it - they seem such nice kids. Also heard about Pam & Craig staying out later this year - I can believe it, as after all he was once leader of his local Hell's Angels chapter, and Pam is still renowned for her pole dancing (don't mention the ping pong balls)!!!!
Went for a walk through the Agora today with my dads, Her Silliness, and the 'cousins' - Harvey and Tady. Tenia from the Blue Fox is looking fabulous, as always - Nick the Knife was lovely to the boys - Betty waved hello........ It's not a great year for Molyvos - it's a shame - the Agora, the Harbour, the beach - it's so beautiful, and people try so hard..............
More soon..... x

Mid-July - Hot Hot Hot!!!
Last night was the busiest night of the summer so far - the harbour area was properly 'buzzing' for the first time this year (the Greeks have arrived) ....... which restaurant did we hear almost lost it totally in the service department (whilst food quality, as ever, remained excellent)???
Dads were so busy that Big P had little time to finish off his customary litre of house white.......
They came home at 4.45am last night, with the following tales.....
I understand that once appropriate adjustments were made, the thing managed just to contain J's capacious bosoms - but sequins, really!! Dads tell me, though, that even such kitsch sparkliness failed to dim her classic beauty & enviable figure!!
Mr T-Shirt failed to impress last night, and will, sadly, be unable to top the one with the missive referring to monkeys and spanking............ what's that all about?
Our Sangria is going well (made to my own special recipe). One lovely couple managed three litres between them - apparently bets were on as to whether the descent downstairs from the toilets might end in disaster, but both carried it off with aplomb.......................
Who was on the boat 'fishing', whilst friend Sean waited patiently (and it seems drunkenly) on the balcony, bonding with Sam's mum?
Isaac, you're a lovely lad - a credit to mum and dad (I don't care what they say, there's nothing wrong with your hair)......... apparently your dad's shirt caused a stir (or rather the pattern looked like something that needed a stir)..........
The Bolton 13 - they've arrived, bless them - and the dads are having to indulge Patrick with his need for regular Nolan hits every night now.......... what fun!
Babis next door to us (he's a half-blind flea beaten old mongrel) tells me that his mum and dad, Maro & Manoli, had a couple of shots at the bar last night - lovely people................. she looked fably bouffanted as per, and he ruggedly handsome................ They sat with lovely restaurant people (my dads' favourites), and a bevy of antipodean beauties.
Meanwhile Mr Dutch model sat whiling away some time with a former flame on the balcony!!! I've been told to mention that another restaurateur, the Divine Miss E, was a stunning vision in white............ happily, though, the 'girls' managed last night to keep conversation above the waistline, unlike the previous night!!!!
Our 'boys' are a little low-key at the moment - Arturo is pensive, and The Lothario is edgy.... But Nicos is back in town and on the Campari Sodas...
New music video clips includes 'the Banana Boat Song' from Beetlejuice.... Candi Staton's Suspicious Minds for John who leaves today, and the rather dodgy Jobim version of One Note Samba - thank God for Youtube. All good fun - more soon - Millie would say hello, but is far to preoccupied snoozing & dribbling on the sofa in front of the fan...........................

Some Like It Hot......
A new month begins, and it seems like Summer has finally started in Molivos.... My dads tell me it's been a slow start - something about a 'credit crunch' (a recession by any other name) in the UK. Of course the football didn't help... Still during the past week the daytime temperature has topped out at around 35 degs - nice breeze, though, and there seem to be more people around. Only yesterday on stinky beach there were tourists - I mean, really!!!!! Big P couldn't swim naked (a relief to us all)!!!!!!!
My bar is doing well - with an ever-changing cast of characters, and our regulars. I understand that the delicious Lynn (so described by The Lothario) is a little tired of being mistaken for me (you'd think she'd be flattered - we are, after all, both gorgeous blondes - although I am, of course, considerably younger).
Just a word to Paul & Sue - everyone else can find the bakery - why can't you?????
Apparently two lots of 'Paul & Sues' at the moment - good fun, and keeping dads out far too late at night...... Derek here at the moment with new woman Dawn - lovely - good fun - but didn't bring any dog treats (something about flea collars for the harbour cats - come on, Derek - priorities)!
Dads tell me that local friends are supporting us well at the moment. The Lothario and Arturo are with us almost every night - The Lothario has provided organic veg to the dads - very impressive and strangely shaped cucumber!! Stratos, who henceforth shall be known as Lovely Chap is in most nights, and Tall Dark and Handsome from the coastguard (only decency prevents me from recounting his recent experience at the hands of......).
The new and exciting owners of Opus opposite had a drink last night - charming all with their sparkling wit and charming repartee!!!!!!! I understand they are great musicians, if not lively raconteurs.........
Miss T, the nanny, is apparently enjoying Congas on a night out, but had a nicer time the other night meeting young tall Nick, and Stelios the Fox - nice boys (congrats Stelios - you're an uncle - oh my God - that makes the delicious Tenia a granny.............).
Gossip? Me? Never! Whose wife was recently scouring the bars looking for errant husband? May be we'll never know.....
Quick hello to Mr M's six ladies from the Marilena - especially the travel agent - isn't Molivos wonderful!!!!!!!
At home all remains the same - too many cats - and Millie is becoming far too porky...... a little more attention and more cheese or biscuits wouldn't go amiss, but on balance life ain't too bad......................
