World Cup, and on a sad note.........

Its been a while, but hey, days just tend to mesh into each other here ok?

So, the World Cup has been on for a few weeks and group stages are nearly over. Greece are out not that its a shocker or anything but it must be said that they put up a good fight despite their shameful first match against South Korea.

I dont have much to say about this World Cup except the difference between this one and others i have seen are, well, its soooo frickin boring. The matches are boring, the players are boring. Usually you have some player or team that really outshines the rest and plays really exciting soccer but not this time....Maybe in the knock out stages they will show some passion.

I must also pass on my condolences to the Serbian team, they totally deserved to go through to the next stage. Ah well, next time guys.

On to a more serious note.

I am sad to report the death of somebody who was as much a Santorinian as anyone who has come and lived here in the last years.
I only found out today that he died about a week ago.
So, Rest in Peace Francesco Morici.
Very sad to hear you are no longer with us.
I have not heard details, nor is it really that important except he was not well for quite a time so i hope that now he is not suffering and at peace.

On a happier note, the return of a much loved friend to the island with family recently sparked a possible PERMANENT return to the island. That is of course, if the right property comes along, which i sincerely hope it does. Would be great to have you back Missy......Karterados needs some life in it!

The only gossip i have is that a certain servitora was seen canoodling with a transient visitor to the island a few weeks ago.

4th of July promises to be a great night, the annual BBQ is back on at the Seniorita's avli......CANNOT WAIT! (I promised the Original Sushi Boys I would do a beer bong in their memory)

Nothing else to report right now but will get my investigative nose working to get more juicy gossip for you readers.......
See y'all soon.
