Might be Tight?
As you can see, the underworld on Crete is just as fascinating as the upper levels of the island. The picture on the left was taken on a Rethymnon CIC excursion last month when we visited the caves at Zoniona. You can read more about our exploits inside. February was a riotous month - we had a great carnival, partied the way we used to do when we were teenagers and consequently suffered afterwards the way middle aged people do. Heaps of fun, though! The weather hasn’t been too bad, although local farmers might disagree. We could do with a bit more rain and there is very little snow on the mountain tops. This might cause problems later on in the year. We will just have to wait and see. Fingers crossed. Lent is this month, so one would have thought that it would be a quiet time in town. Depends what one means by quiet, there’s always something going on here!
March Highlights
On our Spotlight Page we get nautical. We have a mini picture gallery from the Carnival grand parade, and there is an entertaining story about camels. Our recipe is Hungarian (ish) and the crossword is as eccentric as ever. All this plus news and views from around town, details of local community events and much more!
About ‘The Bugle’
The Rethymnon Coffee Morning Bugle is an independent, monthly FREE publication that was started in January 2007
(how time flies). The Bugle is an English language publication that is geared not only towards the Greek and international community living and working in Rethymnon, but also to anybody who likes our town (or would like to know our town) and loves Crete. The aim of the Bugle is to be both informative and light hearted.
We welcome feedback and written / photographic contributions from readers. We particularly welcome feature articles that have a Rethymnon slant; if you are considering submitting an article we would ask that you keep to an upper word limit of 500 words.
You will find our contact details and a listing of hard copy distribution outlets at the bottom of our This Month Page.
We hope you enjoy reading our March issue!
