@Jorence Need good paper, too. My fave is Rhodia pads.
@Jorence (Sheaffer, even. One day I’ll learn to spell it without looking it up…)
@Jorence My Scheaffer has been giving good service since 1991, and they are *not* kidding with the lifetime guarantee, if that helps.
@guriben @ratsass I had to walk through a litter of smashed plates on the way home last night. They clearly do still hate them.

(Basically, I try to only have one authentically Greek meal a day when I’m here. Otherwise I go home a stone heavier…)
Today I got up late, then wandered around Χανιά with t’parents. Now home, with Heineken and toast (not exactly authentic Greek, I know…)
@mattgemmell The last time I needed an Android screenshot, I resorted to taking a photo of the screen with my iPhone…
Pinboard I smile when people ask me to do something at my earliest convenience, because my earliest convenience will be on August 12, 2032
MT @SpaceX: Watching launch from on board the International Space Station! ow.ly/b7ZMe <— And I thought *my* lounge was untidy.
@mollycrabapple Καλά!
Snappity: This *was* going to be another portrait of my dad, until someone upstaged him. flic.kr/p/c4KDo3
@stillawake I think, on balance, I’m going to ignore @liveindetail’s advice.
@stillawake Ah, okay. Will try with the next one. Though that may depend on how dirty a look the waitress gives me when she sees this mess!

@stillawake I do not know this tradition. Give me instructions!
@stillawake It is indeed. Having a Greek coffee in a Greek square right now :)

Heading for lunch in Χανιά :)
@Jorence Just catching up with blogs. *Waves in passing at your 10K post* :)
@tsunimee No, me neither.

@RadioKate Headphones? You don’t have to listen to anything…
@KellySibson I won’t be here for that long. My parents have been planning for various eventualities for a year or two; should be fine.
@tsunimee My Big Fat Geek Family… I am living in a Channel 4 show.
Wandered into the lounge to find my stepmother watching a video called “women at war”. Hope Greece isn’t going to get *that* bad…
