24/06/04 "Heather's Brainwave of the Day"


Brian: Apparently Heather will be having one "brainwave" per day.


I'm unconvinced.


On a less serious note, we have now been fornicating for 5 months. The next uni 'anniversary' will, hypothetically, be 9 months.


For a 'less serious section' I feel that that was rather deep.


We booked our Samos youth hostel today. This took much longer than we thought but we have a bed for the night. The food sounds good. As far as I understand, it could be that we'll come home after Istanbul because it's too scary to think about the whole 3 months - a day at a time is the only way it will work. Incidentally, I still can't believe I'm doing this or the I'm doing this with - I've never felt so lucky as I do now doing this with.

  22/09/04 Day 81 I am itching to speak generally and emotionally of this fascinating city and the people we've met - but just I must deal with chronological facts. I think Heather has gone a bit crazy, as her entries were rather terse, and she's now prancing around the room like a Victorian show-girl! We got up a little earlier than intended due to the appearance of two Columbians in our bedroom. (Yes - I had the most painful mozzy bite night so far, worse, somehow, than Vienna - I think my body has just given up - oh how I long for England). This turned out to be beneficial. A breakfast was a laughing affair, and we were graced by Chris - "I'm so arrogant I won't even accept that other people have views, let alone that they are different from mine, let alone that they might just be right" - the hippy. He proceeded to preach about how to behave in foreign countries, and was chagrinedly (?) rude to Heather, who's Italian could not be more better than his. ...

  23/09/04 Day 82 (there's no point just to San Marco taking lifts) We were going to get up early first everyone in the whole world decided they wanted to have a shower at the same time as us and we ended up leaving late and getting to San Marco to find a 10 min (only a guess) wait for the basilica and the same for the tower (we'll come back later we thought. And so I wentoff on my own for my long-awaited souvenir shopping trip during which time I bought the coolest gondola-shaped pasta and got very excited about murano glass bonded which I had decided I needed but the nice ones were expensive and the cheap ones were tacky. So I gave up on all that and went to an "art gallery" instead. It was an oriental and modern art gallery like first sector consisting of funny specs and Chinese vases - not my cup of china tea. The modern art was a lot better - several paintings of Marco and other energy places well soon. I was slightly disappointed to only find two pieces of likes...

  10/09/04 Day 69 We just watched a couple of girls set off from the PP beach in a beach canoe. It was most yoney and the appsionately chosen short skirt did not stay day! The episode ended with them both on board, the front of paddling forward the back, backwards. (back in the correct way!!)- we nearly misred breakfast having become so accustomed to the life of a beach bum. And this morning we dined with the local dewey which is, Im sure, fed up of the PP. It looked longingly at me - for coffee - I'm sure we were on the same wavelenght to suck our beach stuff down with us and set up camp on the beach for the day. I sunbathed and listened to music for about 4 hours (looking sughtly like a red tomato, or to maytto, as the Americans would say...) Then we went for a bit of wave surfingwhich was most fun (I was smoking with laughter!!) Apart from that we bought an alarm clock (after the 2 broken watches!!) used the incredibly slow internet and then yet again, another dinner consisting ...
