We did our calculations and realised we have more land here than we had previously in Colwich; about half as much again I reckon. That came as a bit of a shock considering it took us almost 4 years to create our garden there.
Now 3 weeks later, it is all cleared, much of the rubbish has been consumed by bonfires - which are only permitted here on Lesvos until the end of April, after then everything becomes so dry that a bonfire is considered a fire hazard.
Meanwhile in the countryside, purple anemones give way to red, in the olive groves and along the roadsides, scattered with white daisies, announcing April is here in abundance.
