We had to be at the estate agents for 9am so that Azmi could go with Mal to the Beleydesi to ask for a form saying that all our property tax bills have been paid. I didn’t hang around as it only took one of us. I happened to see David who had dropped his car off for repair, so I gave him a lift back home. When Mal arrived back, we both went over to have coffee with David and Kenny. Thank goodness Kenny looked a lot better since the last time we saw him. They showed us Kenny’s X Ray of his smashed up arm, not good. At least he has his plaster off now and is doing physio. 

We had lunch and then I ran David to Kervansaray to collect his repaired car.

We will miss out little visitors, our house geckos and all the different colours of praying mantis.

In the evening I was looking to go somewhere different and it is a couple of years since we have eaten at Destiny,  Çatalköy and remember the food being good. It is next to Cratos and I think some of the residents walk up there for a feeling of local cuisine.There are now fewer and fewer traditional places. It is being taken over by Gloria Jeans and the like.Destiny is on the main road but not right next to it. Well, it seemed like a good idea until we ended up sat in traffic again, another accident, also someone swerving in front of me, obviously dropped both his phone and kebab. I can’t believe the traffic is so bad. It’s just crawling in and out of Girne. It never used to be like this. It re affirmed to us both how the island has changed and not for the better. We also spotted a good half dozen prostitutes on the edges of Girne. That would never have been seen years ago. We all know they are in the “night clubs” but not walking the streets!

I didn’t give up, even though I considered it and we finally arrived at Destiny. They now do a set  three course meal for 45tl    (£9.37). If you book a table you also get a free drink included but we hadn’t. 

It’s a real family friendly place and Gemma and Mehmet had their two children there. 

We had to have the moussaka which is just so good. I also had crab fishcakes to start, far better than any I have had before, not, deep fried! At least after all that traffic, the food was worth it. 

 

I don’t usually but for some reason I took the mobile into the bedroom with us. We were both just dropping off to sleep when we received a message. It was from Anthony. Sorry for the late hour but just to remind us that we had to be at the Land Registry at 9am the following morning and a list of things we had to take. Well, that was it then. Mal can sleep through anything but I was wide awake thinking stupid things like …….what if they put Maggie instead of Margaret on the bankers draft and the bank wouldn’t accept it etc etc?!  Your mind can play lots of tricks in the middle of the night.
