Burger King & Queen

Pete & Marlene popped in for lunch and, in doing so, became our latest Calypso Burger King and Burger Queen! Remember the rules are you have to finish everything on the plate without any help from friends, family or passing animals. Marlene did leave a few fries which you can see her trying to hide on the photo but we let her off partly because she's only little and the burger she ate constituted a larger percentage of her body mass than that of Pete but mainly because we are the judges and we like her. Posted by Picasa

Sunday Brunch

Every Sunday between 12 and 4 we are inviting people to the Calypso Sunday Brunch

We will be cooking traditional English breakfasts with real English sausages, English back bacon, eggs, beans, fried bread & mushrooms. Jumbo Sausage, eggs, chips & beans, and Mega bacon sandwiches and mega sausage sandwiches.


Come & enjoy some cool music and discuss the football, what you did on Saturday night, or life in general. Also read one of the complimentary sunday newspapers we will have out on the terrace.

And the rain came down!

Unusually for June, we got a big thunderstorm in Paleochora yesterday. Rain poured down for a few minutes and everywhere was awash. luckily it passed quickly & dried up by evening. Posted by Picasa

Hansleo and Amelie, from the Black Forest area of Germany have been in town for 5 weeks and they still have another week left. For good reason - they got married in Paleochora during their first week and this is their honeymoon. Talking of moons, they had their cameras ready to photograph the red moonrise last night but it experience cloud problems (what, in June?). Better luck tonight, guys. Posted by Picasa

Number 11 Bus!

You would wait ages for a number 11 bus on the outer circle in Birmingham and 2 or 3 would all show up at the same time Well, Calypso Burger Kings are the same. Two in one evening!

Top left we have George who put Lee (centre) to shame as he did not manage to finish one the night before. Your turn next, Tracy.







Manu demolished his Calypso Burger in no time at all. Easy-Peasy according to him!

Wonderful Sky!

Last night we had one of those skies where, at sunset, there was a little cloud which reflected the sun's dying rays on to the sea sending it purple. Beautiful! Posted by Picasa

Cheerio for this year to Alan & Jean who jet off to Coventry today. Nice sky behind you there guys!
