I've just found one in Rethymno and Heraklion called Veluda. If anyone knows of a supplier in the Chania area I would be most interested to hear from you.

I am so sorry to hear about your accident. Our insurer has always told us that if anything happens we must call him first. Pity it's Sunday but May be when you speak to your insurers they can guide you through the process.

Hi, does anyone know where we can buy a water cooler from please? The type you find in offices.

A favourite place of visitors to us is the Botanical Gardens. They have a website so worth checking out. With Kalyves behind you, take the national road and turn off at the Mournies turn off.

When we want to build something with wood, we go to the timber yard behind the Inka in Kalyves; turn left at/under the bridge. He has different grades of wood. He does not speak English so Greek lanquage is pretty much a must, plus we show him drawings of whatever the current project is.

Whilst not always, the Police are still assisting with traffic flow.

For about a week now there have been several large trucks, filling up with soil, etc. from beneath the National Road, bay side, and taking it to offload it onto side of the Stylos Road, not far from Aptera/Megala Xorafia.

Thank you both. I shall take a look.

About two years ago we vaguely remember being told that the plannng laws for building a house outside of a village may be changed, eg Rather than buying a 2000sqm plot to build 200sqm, you would now need 4000sqm to build 200sqm. Has this happened?

Which part of the island is that?

Thank you Caroline. I've printed ours out now so that I have a copy.
