Sad news last night from Liz Duffy: her husband, Nigel, passed away suddenly in late March. Long time Kef visitors, many people will have seen Nigel and Liz around Katelios and Skala. We wish Liz and the family well.


Icon painting classes every Friday from 16:00 - 18:00 in the Community Centre, Poros. Teacher is a leading icon painter on Kef (whose name I've forgotten but is the sister of George at Efrosini, Katelios). Ability to speak Greek an advantage.

Coast guard to be supplied with six new patrol vessels for maritime surveillance
The cost of their purchase will be 13,387,998 euros

Piccie and brief spec here: http://www.greben.hr/index.php/fast-patrol-crafts.html

Wonder if anything else is included in the price, or does over 2,000,000 € per boat sound a reasonable figure?

It goes fairly fast but I don't think much of the sun deck!
