Life on Symi is always surprising. At 03.00 last Saturday, just as I was heading for bed, I heard a strange crashing sound outside. I took a torch and discovered that the stalk of the soon-to-flower Agave americana at the bottom of the Vigla (mountain as 'look out') had crashed into the courtyard and roof. Fortunately it appears not to have caused any structural damage to the house despite the size and length of the stalk.
