Brilliant.

Thanks Warwick and Sandra

I always use Algofren 600 mg, 2 euros for 20 tablets.(Generic name for Ibuprofen )

Relieves my arthritis pain and also the odd headache after a few too many G & T`s.

Works for me.

Having a visit organised to the UK soon and needing some UK money while there I decided to find the best exchange rate for my cash /Euro`s. A visit to the Bank of Greece (Not the National) was fruitless,` sorry we don`t hold sterling and we cannot get any`. very modern bank but no customers. I was a...

Warwick, The roads I mentioned are the main roads out of Athens, Northbound towards the Airport, not the Toll roads, Mesogeion in particular is very dangerous. Bus lane (but if the sign does not mention any specific Greek name they use it) Center lane for others and the outside lane for the idiots, ...

I have just spent 2 months in central Greece,.... you think Crete is safe for driving???? Central Greece..3 lanes, one for donkeys, one for normal speed, and the outside lane for the idiots at 150 kph + After 16 years here I am still amazed at the stupidity of Greek drivers, that`s why they are stil...

Check the Nobacco web site there is one in the center of Chaina near the central market.

Point taken Warwick, My appointment is the evening of 2 November, with a few days extra in the hospital. (Ok it is at the end of the season but I was given a three month waiting list for the surgeon !!!) I am sure many all year round hotels would have a restaurant but if not a short taxi ride would ...

Clio, I used the guest house at the hospital (on my own) about 10 years ago when my late wife was having treatment for her cancer. It was a basic room for the most but I did had direct contact with her ward during the night which was invaluable. (Private parking was also a bonus) altohb, Looks a ver...

Thanks for that Jeff,

I just wondered if anybody knew of any in close proximity.

Shall Google the area and find the nearest.

I need to find a good hotel for a few days close to the above hospital in the near future.

Not B & B or room only but a quality hotel.

Any recommendations from those at the other end of the island (Lol)

Thanks Warwick,

If Istronian had explained the reason so perfectly as you then we would not have had to enter into this discussion.

In Greece you can ride a 125 cc bike on a car licence quote Istronian.

Is this on a Greek licence or UK ?

Could you point to the relevant legislation please?

I can only ride a 49 cc moped on my uk drivers licence.

To Tweet Tweet, Yes, I forgot to mention the B12 fix I take every day, not available with IKA discount but 10 Euro a month seems reasonable. My wife had a thyroidectomy a few years ago so we are in touch with her doctor and surgeon to see what can be done at a later date. Thanks for your input. Allan

Agree with that Warwick but the heart of the car must start with your brain..lol

I totally agree with you Warwick, My initial diagnosis was with the Pathologico at the General Hospital Chania. From there she recommended the hospital diabetic clinic for tests. After various free blood tests with Ika It was suggested I should see a Cardiologist and Vascular Surgeon. Cut a long sto...
