Aaahhhh, now Adriana.. There's the problem!
Hamsters do not eat cheese, they prefer Mozart Kugels and Æbleskiver |
Don't argue with idiots. They drag you down to their level and beat you with experience. |

Both the Proteus and the Marina are coming in, about 5 minutes apart.
Both running late due to the weather.
Webcam poised to record merry chaos! |

Thanks for moving the webcam Adriana. Merry chaos it certainly was!
I think I managed to grab all the (60!) images and when I have time I'll try to make them available to view.
Meanwhile, for those who missed it, here's a sample to be going on with...

Dance of the Sugarplum Ferries (*)
Available now in three formats:
A 604k file for Windows Media Player should play on most Windows computers.
A 306k version for Real Player. Smaller file than the Windows version but you'll need Real Player to view it.
A huge 2.8M AVI file that should play on most systems but it will take a while to download!
(*) Obligatory festive reference - sorry! |

| Yes, thank you Allan. I enjoyed that. Even made the Proteus look small. |
In Greece, time is merely an idea in the mind of God. |

| Excellent Allan! Any suggestions for music to accompany it - I thought a graceful waltz would be in order. |

I still haven't managed to see the Christmas lights on the Clocktower! I have a look every time I sign in (round about midnight Symi time) but it's always the same view, along the quay. Does Adriana deliberately park it like that when she goes home, or is it blown there by the wind? 
I'll try to remember to log on soon after lunch tomorrow, when it will presumably have already got dark on Symi.  |

| They've had problems with the lights Anthony, so at the moment there isn't much to see of the clock tower. However where our Adriana has the webcam aimed at, you may just be able to make out that the trees are very bright because they are lit up. |
