A sunny day. We went into Margate and met up with Tris and Violet on the beach. We built sandcastles and had a lovely time and then came back to the caravan for some lunch. Later Violet and Tris went in the swimming pool. They then had to catch their train back to London. It was lovely to see them.

Turkey’s ‘Social Engineering’ brings confrontation.

We heard from Tristan who is in Margate for the weekend, so I went to the shops to make sure we had sweets and kiddy things in for Violet! We are meeting them tomorrow.

I know it is all down to Economics but I really fail to see why I can buy olives cheaper in Sainsburys than in North Cyprus. Even the olives stuffed with almonds are cheaper. It’s not as if there are no olives or almonds in North Cyprus! I suppose I should make my own from all our trees there.

Mal worked< I watched Nadal play tennis. He may be winning but is not up to his usual form. A very entertaining match though thanks to Fognini.

We have found during the day that Al Jazeera appear to have the latest news around Turkey and the protests.
