It was very quiet, she thought, there was hardly anyone around, and it was almost lunch-time. Most odd, she felt. She had been pottering around as usual, in the tiny town. She loved this place, and she had been there several times, since she saved up her money for two whole weeks, and now she was on holiday.
She took her small sketch book with some pencils. That’s what she does for pleasure. Noticing a nice café, she sat down.
But where is everyone?
The waiter appeared and grinned. “You don’t know what happened a couple of hours ago?”
so she shook her head
football? she looked all around
that lot England won!

This is a scene from Kokkari, Samos, Greece. In the morning hours, you can walk alone through the empty streets. Kokkari is a small and nice village without big hotel resorts. This image shows an empty street, lined with small shops and a cafe/ restaurant.

Football can do that, and it seems for many too. Fun? Maybe… if they win! Such an excellent photo for that, and just as I woke up too! That was so helpful, so thanks for that, Sadje. 💛⚽😉

Not watching as we have no TV . I didn’t know England had won until going into the chemists to collect my prescription and the England flag hadn’t been folded over which meant they were through to the next round!

I didn’t watch the match as it was at one in the morning, and I was sleeping. It was a nice surprise to see we won.
