We met Peter and Tracey a couple of months ago at the Deli counter of the local supermarket. They are from Durham and have been here 4 years. They have made this beautiful island their permanent home. We enjoy socialising with them as they are in our little bubble and on this occasion, we shared Sunday lunch. Traceys Yorkshire puds were a work of art. She had inadvertently used the wrong flour but they tasted just as good!!! We returned the compliment with a chicken and mushroom pie. Its no wonder we've stacked on the pounds!!!
We have been sailing together for 18 years and have owned Stiletto for 16 of them. We have exhausted the Solent and the UK South Coast and all the other usual passages: West Country, France, Channel Islands etc. that are available from our home port of Gosport. [...]We embarked on our "Slow Boat to the Med" big adventure, having sailed out of Gosport in April 2017, with our final destination being the island of Ikaria, in the Eastern Aegean - where Andreas has his family roots, before going on to explore the hundreds of other stunning Greek island locations - we could be away a while!
