It has. I used to be good-looking!

Book signing was lovely. Met friends old and new, and all the books went. Could have sold more. It's a shame Amazon doesn't operate here.

I don't think I'll actually have many books for the signing. People keep getting advanced orders in. I'm prioritising people who live here, because since Brexit it's almost impossible to get books here.

Hi BAJ - here until 29th. I could only carry 11 and 3 are already committed. I can book one for you if you like, but it might be safer to get one in the UK. Then we can meet up for a beer and a natter!

There was a small band at Bar38 last night. When we went to bed around 11:15 I could just hear the guitar. When I got up for a pee at 1am the village was totally silent. All I could hear was the sea.

We're in the village centre at Little Prince and I can't say that the noise level is very high late at night. Most bars have TVs on but the sound off. The music hasn't been unusually loud. But if that changes I'll let you know!

Beach was busy on Saturday. Loads of people about in the evening.

It looks like airport congestion is nothing compared to the crush on the gangplank as various rodents try to escape the sinking ship of the Johnson administration, so I don't see much chance of the pound-euro ratio getting any better. Probably wise to grab some euros while they're going.

It's amazing what social media can do. Tony Cox posted a lovely review on one of the Agios Stefanos groups on Facebook last night and there were eleven Kindle purchases by 1pm!

E-book sales still at over 4:1 compared to paperback. Times really have changed. Press reports last year said that e-book sales were falling, but that's not reflected in this experience. Any comments?

I'm pleased to say that, as I write, John's  plane is in the air and arriving twelve minutes early. :-)

There are three cancellations at Bristol today - Newcastle, Pisa and Amsterdam.

Bless you! You'll know what my step-son meant when he said 'He eats a lot, that Johnny Almond.'

Hi, Carl. I'm working on it, but it's taking some time. Been a lot of domestic issues to deal with. I was hoping for August, but probably September.

Thanks, everybody, and particularly evertonendo - I so pleased it helped, and it really makes it worthwhile. I hope book two will make you smile even more.
