Personally, I'd relish the opportunity to use a bit less water - we haven't had any in our village since Saturday afternoon! What's that strange smell? Oh, it's me ....

Far fewer wasps this year, though. Round here, anyway ....

Yes. From memory I required my passport, house deeds, EHIC, bank book, AFM number, 3 passport photos and a modicum of patience. Be warned though that different police stations may interpret the rules differently. I also took my birth certificate, tax return, a utility bill and my latest P60 although...

Agreed. Sight of my Eurobank account book was sufficient to satisfy them I had means. I think it's been highlighted before that it's neither here nor there to the Greek authorities whether you can support yourself or not. You're not entitled to benefits and, if you can't support yourself, you'll jus...

A bit scary, to be sure. However, whatever criteria is required for the new residency document is likely to be made reciprocal by the uk government, so it's unlikely to be horribly stringent - I'm sure the Greek government doesn't want hundreds of disgruntled fish and chip shop owners swarming back ...

Tim

Thanks for that, Warwick. I'll do some ringing around on Monday.

Many thanks in advance.
