Awe ... shame about your PC screen - mine's just about hanging off. Laptop needs replaced now!

Shame also about the boy on the beach - parents should really be alert at all times down there. Something similar happened a few weeks ago but to an older man with a very sad result. Unfortunately no lifeguard on site at the time I believe!! :o

Post by: zoe on July 11, 2009, 06:43:51 PM: the older man was staying at the thomas bay it was the week before we went he had a late pick up and went down to the beach and went for a dip they think it was his heart

Post by: tonyco1 on July 19, 2009, 10:17:41 PM: This beach is as safe as it gets when calm, but when the winds blow up and the surf runs, it has to be used with caution!
Strong undertow, ripping back out to sea.
Another incident happened the day after the boy's one.
Brother of the delfino Owner got into trouble and had to be rescued by Spiros from the Havana Bar,
help in also by the Lifeguard once he noticed!!

Post by: tonyco1 on July 19, 2009, 10:20:35 PM: Re my Netbook, something major there, screen not working, but will show on another monitor!
However - won't boot either, so looks like hardware fault.
Car also giving grief, expensive repairs coming up.
Great to be back!!
