... a few of the restauranteurs, shopkeepers and umbrella people. It was lovely to feel like part of the community, talk with them each day about the cricket, where we were from, and the trouble with tourists. Of course we’d have our lengthy chats with Shirley each time we passed and her son even gave us some cake from his 5th wedding anniversary celebrations.
