Latest information on clothing, weather, etc

The weather in late April should be around 20 degrees celsius in the day, though it will be cold at night. - We have log fires at home, so bring some warm clothes (jumpers, fleeces, jackets etc) if you are going to be out at night, eating dinner outside, etc. It may also be a bit rainy still, so a waterproof jackets, umbrella and decent shoes would be an idea. Otherwise, bring swimming gear, beach towel, sunhat, suncream etc, clothes that will suit 'spring-like' conditions. I normally get away with jeans/light trousers, and keep a warm top handy just in case.

Mossies should not be too much of a problem, but if people are particularly prone, bring some citronella/anti-mossie lotion to be on the safe side.

The accommodation will be comfy and clean, and everyone will have their own space. The aircon system should also have a heat-generating facility in case anyone gets a bit chilly at night, though there will be lots of extra blankets available.

Our address to send any post (leaflets etc) to us in Greece before the seminar is:

Madeleine Doggett & Yannis Vardakastanis
Post Restante Zakynthos
29100
Zakynthos
GREECE

It should take 7-10 days to reach us, and I will acknowledge receipt.

I will endeavour to hurry up with the itinerary, and have taken into account Cumbria group discussion/write up time, so have left quite a few afternoons free for this. If the weather changes the itinerary, e.g. for the cat trip or the island tour, it will mean that we have flexibility to change the programme around. We would be really interested to hear presentations from your team, and I am sure that people in Zakynthos will value your input as well. Particularly the Marine Park.

I think that is all for now, if you need anything else, please let me know.
