We had given ourselves two days to clean the caravan. Mal is always working when he stays here and I am rarely here so it really needed a good clean. I started by taking all the net curtains down and washing them. We dumped loads of rubbish. As I was cleaning of course I was dusting and was then shocked when I looked again and even more dirt was on the surfaces than when I first started. We then realised that the combine harvester was gathering in the wheat in the field opposite and everything was covered with all the dust. The one day we decide to clean and the air was full of dust. In fact it was getting in our eyes and everywhere so we had to shut the doors and windows and it was so hot.
I also went to Tesco to buy some blueberries and cream as we have never seen them in Cyprus.
We watched ‘No Place Like Home’ on ITV in which Marion and Alan Stuart chose whether to stay in North Cyprus (in our village) or to go back to the UK. At the end of the programme, which was recorded about a year ago, because of Alan’s health, they voted to leave and return to the UK but they are still in Malatya! Our Muhtar would be very surprised to know that he starred in the programme.
In the evening we listened to the bingo being called out in the club house….no we didn’t join them.
