Photo Article from the Greek Hovel - something that has not happened here in years, maybe decades

When the Mrs and I first came to see the Greek hovel in 2014 ( or was it 2013) it had been abandoned for many many years. And those who remember my early photos will remember why. You just could not live up here. So today we have a groundbreaking first as you can see below.

I have just prepared the first meal cooked at the hovel in what must be years if not decades. Mushrooms and a local orange flavoured sausage for breakfast. It may be no great culinary triumph but it tasted good and it marks a new milestone in bringing this place back to a habitable condition.  Okay I have no plates or forks, so had to eat from the pan using a knife, but it is a start.
