Travels to a Different Time: June 1970: Moped Troubles in Rhodes!

RKS Film: “A Grand Romantic Gesture”: Thank You For Sparing Me From A Cheesy Romantic Film!
You have probably seen too many cheesy romantic films with a perfect and happy ending. I would rather eat two bags of Cheesies than watch a telescreen generated Harlequin Romance Film. Harlequin films are designed for whom? A cholesterol nightmare would be preferable to suffering through a formulistic romantic film. So with a degree ofContinue reading “RKS Film: “A Grand Romantic Gesture”: Thank You For Sparing Me From A Cheesy Romantic Film!”
Travels to a Different Time By a 12 Year Old Boy: June 1970 On Board the TMVK Knossos to Rhodes
We took a taxi from Athens to its port city Piraeus which was somewhat on the raunchy side of things. We had a cold greasy lunch and then boarded our ship the TMVK Knossos bound for several islands including our destination Rhodes.
