Thanks for the inquiry. Much touched.

I'm doing fine, but have very busy on a number of fronts. Greece is now in its #2 nationwide lockdown (since last Friday) and there's currently a strict curfew from 21.00-05.00.

I now have to put on my oil-filled radiator in the evenings. What a contrast to September when we had a heatwave to rival July and August! All the tourists are now gone and everyone is packing up or already closed.

For seven or eight weeks, I had a de facto 'poet in residence' slot at The Secret Garden. Today, I've beavered away at my personal website PHIDOC. Check out 'Noticeboard' for the new stuff.

Then of course there's been the politics in the USA and in the UK. And some recalcitrant IT issues!

I'm really behind with my correspondence. In particular I need to write to my brother-in-law Neville in Edmonton.

Thank you for your post re 11/11. The last civic service I took in the UK, before coming to Symi, was on Armastice Day in 2017. a fortnight before my wife became seriously ill.

Kermode (if I may) I love your posts and read every one. What a bear!

Ciao
