EEJIT First Class

So since last I wrote Stitch and I have been painting the town red, we have visited all the best places and drank all the best coffee, we've Starbucked and Malled and even managed two trips to Pets World shame they didn't have anything to our taste, although they did offer a replacement supply of sensitive (not for big dogs) food but we decided after conferring it would be best all round to purchase elsewhere, well it would be alright for Stitch but I would be on the receiving end of anything nasty he just has to squat a while.

Yesterday saw us come up way to close and personal to a vicious moggie who frightened the bejesus out of both of us, luckily for Stitch the harness worked a treat and he was whipped out of the path of the hissing, spitting and thumping feline, not our fault she was under the car we were walking past the mangy creature.

Later in the evening just before the sun started to hide itself for the night, tucked up behind some mountain or other we went out for a walk which turned into a bit of a run, 5 hill runs later (obviously we walked back down) and we were done, literally.  Stitch was pecking and I was sweating and then two young girls popped around the corner and asked directions, what a sight I must have looked with my orange shirt and beetroot face, Stitch on the other hand looked no different apart from the fact he couldn't keep his tongue in his mouth.

Today (Thursday we headed off to Limassol as I was needing juice for my contacts, by the time we arrived at the mall and found a shady place to park the car the sun was hot enough to sear the paws off my poor pupdog so I decided it wouldn't be a great time to walk him, windows down and I shot into the mall to the only store in Limassol the sells lazy juice, all that rubbing of lenses on one side and then the other bores me to tears so I always buy the lazy juice, no rub solution it's the greatest, made especially for lazy people like me.

Later in the day we headed to Starbucks and ordered water, iced americano and two bags of ground coffee to go, then Stitch and I headed out towards Moni to a little road I had decided would make a nice walk, now I wasn't wrong but the 31 degree heat was a little torturous, but we made it all the way to the sea where Stitch cooled his paws before we trekked all the way back to the car, by the time I got there the waistband of my shorts could be rung out and my very pretty hairstyle I had so carefully arranged this morning was out like a powderpuff, once again apart from the tongue hanging over the side of his mouth Stitch looked no different.

We headed home after water was guzzled and then it was time for supper, pork fillet again marinaded in coconut oil, lemon and garlic, completely forgetting that when you put liquid coconut in the fridge it sets so when I retrieved it I was convinced my fridge was set to high and my pork had frozen....It wasn't and boy did it taste lush, shame about the plumes of smoke all over the house, even with every door in the house open, think it will get roasted next time, there were dogs from the next village sitting outside my patio with expectants looks on their faces..

So after an hour of FaceTime with my beloved I decided to take Stitch for a walk around 9.40pm, organised as usual I had the poop bag, and the lead it was just a bloody shame I left the house keys in the door, ON THE INSIDE. Arggggggggg I checked all the main floor windows, I checked the basement and then I walked up the road towards the neighbours climbed onto the walk and walked down towards my house just to get on the second level not easy as it was quite dark and I was dragging a very reluctant Stitch who was missing out on his normal walk and being forced to walk the wall with me, well we couldn't walk the neighbours garden there may be snakes in the grass, nope none of the windows were open, back along the wall we went and had to go knock on the neighbours door and ask if our landlord had left a spare key with them, unfortunately the answer was no but they did have a garage fob for the electric up and over thing, this didn't help as I lock the door from house to garage from the inside.  

Thankfully Marios made a few calls and managed to find me a locksmith who would come out in 30 mins, so Stella (Marios' wife) and I sat around with our two dogs and chatted until the lovely gentleman from Adamides Locksmiths arrived and with his two inch flexible sheet of plastic got me back into my house, 60 euros later and trust me it took me longer to count my euros than it did for him to get the door open but I wasn't caring sleeping in the garden wasn't really doing it for me and still wouldn't have gotten me in the house tomorrow, best 60 euros I have ever spent.
