I think Calis has changed, but so has Brighton where I lived in the UK.
Many things for the better, but some for the worst, especially the canal.
My sister came for the first time a couple of years ago and fell in live with it, same as we did all those years ago, and is back again soon.
I remember where everywhere you went waiters etching made a point of sitting and chatting g, asking where you were from etc and now pretty. Uch leave you alone,no complimentary tea and a chat in many places now.even with stories of burglary, handbag snatches etc it was heartwarming today to see the kindness is still alive and well.
I want to say a huge thanks to Cem, aka Oddjob from Vojos.
I had a prang in my car today and he saw me as he drove past and came to check accident report was correct and offered to take it to be photocopied and sort it for me.
I told him no, he works such long hours and deserves some time off.
What a lovely kind guy.
