Our adventures in the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus continue....

Anne had half of her family arriving in Larnaca this evening and Jeff was due in to Ercan at 9 p.m., so Joan and I went to Ercan to collect him.

He looked quite dapper in his panama hat, covering the bald head, but has put on even more weight due to all the steroids he is takng. Apart from a loss of voice he is very cheerful about the whole business and just has to keep up the good fight.

He has got three weeks here before the next round and during that time he will have son and daughter, their spouses and all six grandchildren over here, so that should keep him from getting too bored.
