Tzust one filachi sou yia valsamo

Clubbing in Crete. Forget a condom dispenser, I mean who is gonna get any action with vomit breath? Ta daaaaa for only 1 euro you too can disguise your drunkeness and pretend you never made a call on the porcelain telephone! A toothbrush with toothpaste, no water needed?....genius!

Hello Hello?

I bought a vivodi card to call home and went to my yiayia's house to use her landline. *blink* oh my word she still has an old rotary dialler phone (bet you didnt know what it was called... yes I'm a legend). So I assumed it must just be for show, I picked up the receiver and there was a dial tone *shock horror* how am I supposed to use the vivodi card if it can only work with tone dialling?!? I felt like I had been sucked into a time warp and transported back to 1983! After a brief panic I found another 'normal' phone, turns out the funky old one is linked to an extension.

*pring pring*
*connecting xorio to JHB*
"Hello?"
"Hello! Do you know yiayia has one of those really old phones were you stick your finger in the hole and turn it to dial a number? And it actually works!"

My name has gone down in the history books

On a family trip to Greece in 1988 my sisters and I painted my yiayia's balcony, not with Plascon Wall & All but with cheapo kids paint. We covered the entire balcony with pictures of flowers and trees and other garden stuff, we must have decided that living on a mountain an hour away from civilisation was grounds for a play-play garden. 21 years later all that is left of our painted garden is my name in one of the corners, what can I say..... I'm a legend
