‘Tis the Silly Season

August  – or as the long term inmates and locals refer to it, the Silly Season, that month of the year when the island feels too hot, too busy, too stressed and patience wears thin for those at work. Two shifts, seven days a week, all summer long. Its also a time when we get asked silly questions, or at least they a seem silly  to those familiar with the Rock. These are innocent enough, and we all sometimes ask un-researched questions in the communities to which we are travelling. A couple of emails from this August for instance go something like this.

  • Is the Hydra ferry departure lounge air conditioned and does it have WiFi?
  • Can you send us the bus schedule to Kamini and how much does a cab cost?
  • Some donkeys we noticed have beads in their foreheads does this have any traditional local significance?
  • If we bring our own biodegradable toilet paper can we flush that down the loo?
  • Can we play golf on the island?

One gets the feeling that while some have found the way to contact us, they haven’t glanced at even the home page, no mind, some people just don’t have the time to browse. So instead of the usual summer in the sun snap, I have decided to post one of my favourite off season photos, just to remind us what the “other” Kamini is like.
