Relations with my Aunt Agatha and the weather in London both being decidedly chilly, it seemed judicious for Bertram to absent himself from the teeming metropolis for a spell, and I consulted Jeeves as to where I might best soak up a spot of sunshine. “I believe the Greek Islands are remarkably clement at this time of year, sir”.
So I toddled off to Mykonos, which struck me as rather a cheery spot, although I had difficulty finding a decent whisky and soda. The first bartender I tried gave me an uncomprehending stare, and suggested a glass of something he called “ooze”. I naturally declined, we Woosters being anything but primeval.
The people were very friendly, though I was surprised by the number of coves who went about holding hands. But I’m pretty easygoing, and I simply put it down to their having the misfortune to be foreign blighters.
