Hi all. 

Not long now before we're back in beautiful Kalami again. Can't wait.

Just to let you all know, I've written a book about our visits to Kalami, about all the weird and wonderful people we've met and the odd events that have taken place around us. Don't worry, it's not the literary equivalent of sitting through somebody's holiday snaps! It's really about the beauty of this North eastern corner of Corfu, it's people, it's life and the many situations we've found ourselves in over the years. We've met many people in that time, some strange, some eccentric, some worrying but all interesting. We've also witnessed many events, mostly hysterical which spurred in putting to paper what we've experienced so that others may experience also. We've tried to convey the beauty and charm of Kalami and why we, and many others, return year after year. To us it's our little piece of paradise and will always be.

The book is available on Amazon either for download to a Kindle or to your lap top. It's entitled Kalami, Where the Sea Shrugs it's Shoulders and is a give away at £2.49. And yes, there is an explanation for the title.

Cheers guys

See you in four weeks!

Hi.

No, we always stay at the A&A. We have been inside Ritas apartments though as some friends stayed there last year.

It is only available with Kindle on Amazon Deedee, at  £2.49p. I have got an android tablet with the Kindle app. which is not bad and have downloaded a few books but you cannot beat the real thing on paper.

Hi DeeDee

Unfortunately I haven't the funds to publish it in paperback (yet!) so it's only available on download. Hopefully the app thing may work for you. Thanks for showing interest in the book.

Thanks for this Sidneylarkin, hubby downloaded the free Kindle app and the book last night.  I would like to read it before I go in June as it will keep me going for a wee while.  I wouldn't be surprised if we are in it.

Hi Weeminx

Thanks for downloading. Hope you enjoy. 

You may well be in it, depends on when you normally go? We tend to go either mid May or late September. We're actually out on 25th this year for 2 weeks. You'll know when we're there cos I'm gonna put up some flyers for the book.

Look forward to seeing you.

sidneylarkin

P.S. you never know, if you're not in this book you could be in the next one!

I too shall have a look for it, & download to my iPhone! Sounds a great read!

Does this mean that the bookshelves in Reception won't be as good as normal if so many now have Kindles? (I don't have one, & love dropping off my finished books and noseying for another one donated by someone else!)

Just bought Smile along with about ten others ready for my holiday.  Also bought Blue Skies and Black Olives, It's all Greek to Me, Drink dear boy, Aegean Dream.  Has anyone read any of these?

One I will highly recommend is The Elephant Whisperer which I have just finished.  Amazing.
