Well update time but to be honest with you not done much since the last one, been out for long walks, looked in every furniture shop for a sofa and swivel cuddle chair that isn't made from cord material, drank lots of Costa's Caramel capuccino which i now can no longer drink as even after just one cup i start to shake and feel sick, talked to a few friends on the island this week and was given some very interesting news about my bars re-decoration, theres always someone about watching out. My poor landlord is very upset about whats happened to his building and has filed a police report but as i told him its only paint and i'll sort it all in good time, no rush. I'm a very patient person LOL
Its been lovely weather here as you all know and when its like this and i walk on Swansea beach around to The Mumbles and i don't feel the need to be on Zakynthos but the weather here is so bad in the summer i always thank the good lord for being on the island.
I don't mind working hard in any country but the rules and regulations now in the UK is crazy, i think less gets done now than before because of all these silly rule thats come in. Before if a lightbulb went in the workplace you'd get a chair and change it but now you must have a ladder which is a pain in the ass to go and find one so the bulb never gets replaced or a plug needs changing but now you need a qualified electrician to do it. I've been in to a few bars this past month and bulbs are out which are within easy reach on a chair, quiz machine wasn't on so when i asked is the quiz machine working the woman behind the bar told me an electrician was coming out to change the plug as the old one was cracked. How crazy is that, if they saw the way things were done in Greece everywhere would be closed down haha. What i'm trying to say is i think i'd find it hard to work again full time in the UK after having so much freedom on Zakynthos but if i did ever decide to come back to the UK when i'm old and grey with a pension i would open a bar here as i have already been looking at properties just to get an idea of whats about and prices as i have my own public licence already so just need the building, a little local village pub is the last step when i retire but i'm more than happy on Zakynthos and also been looking at opening another bar on Kefalonia so its easy to travel between the two. I've done everything i've ever wanted to do, oh apart from one thing visit New Zealand but that isn't a problem got plenty of time for that, so expanding my business is the only thing i can think of doing. And just to add to Silly Britain rules, children are not allowed to play conkers in school due to health & safety and nut allergy, that is seriously ridiculous.
So thats it for now , told you haven't done much but the suns out, i'm showered and ready to go out for my daily walk along the beach. How lucky am i, a beach 5 mins walk away from my house in Swansea and a beach 5 mins walk away from my Apt in Kalamaki, shame i hate sand LOL
