Word On The Streets Is….

All photos: NolionsInEngland Fate conspired to stop me pressing the shutter release on any camera for 9 whole days until yesterday lunchtime.

Os Gemeos Found Un-Harmed

All photos by nolionsinEngland Greece is a battered country; battered by economic penury, politicians that can’t be trusted, lack of a properly functioning tax collection mechanism, corruption, cronyism, nepotism and that’s just for starters.
