After this, I decided to try and give something back to the charity. There was already one collection box in Skala at the Solomos Supermarket and I acquired a second for the Eleana hotel pool bar where I work. Although it’s only a small hotel and we had a short season my nagging paid off and we raised over 200 euros which was a good start. The Solomos raised over 250.
In the summer I also fostered a stray dog called Josie for a couple of weeks before a kennel place became available for her to sit out her quarantine time. Josie was a beach dog whose favourite pastime used to be chasing the tourist train around Skala. Now she’s a pampered pet in Liverpool with Con and Lynn.

Heartened by our small success at the Eleana I acquired another three collection boxes for Skala in 2005 – at the Gallera restaurant, Kefalonia Images photo shop and with Jean who collected both from the Asteris and Natalie hotels.
We’ve also become a little more proactive in Skala this year.
