A cancelled flight opened a new chapter in Lynne's life. Along with her husband she was 'stranded' on the beautiful island of Corfu, Greece. For the first time in her 75 years, this wife and grandmother of 10 had time to herself. This was a unique period in Lynne's life and a dramatic time in the history of the world. Covid19 was dislocating and destroying the lives of so many people. Against the backdrop of the pandemic Lynne was able to draw positivity and simple pleasures from her beautiful surroundings and, most importantly of all, derive great joy and delight from the local cat population. A review of the book from Dr Lee Durrell: ' This book is about cats, of course, enchanting and extraordinary creatures that they are, each with its own loveable character and temperament. It is also about the magic of Corfu - its profusion of spring wildflowers, melodies of sheep bells and centuries-old traditions. But there is much more going on here. Lynne Sayer’s diary ranges from current global events to deeply personal ones. We hear about covid, Brexit and threats to American democracy, as well as the doings of her children and grandchildren in lockdown England. This is well worth a read as a chronicle of our times….and for cat-lovers everywhere. The modest purchase price goes towards improving the lives of stray cats and kittens in Lynne’s region of Corfu. The book ends with a heartfelt appeal to contribute to the work of Kassiopi Cats Meow, which is “the best way to help the brave little cats”. I, for one, could not resist it! ' Lee Durrell, Corfu, October 2021
