I come under Heraklion & yes, we are still waiting to hear when we have to register!

My phone has dual sim cards, one with Cosmote & the other with Q. Whenever I go to the UK, I check on their website page, to see which UK operators they are affiliated with & what services are available. With some UK networks I can only recieve incomimg calls, other networks, receive & m...

I wonder if they had originally planned to scrap these routes, but due to the demise of Thomas Cook, have re-instated them.

I'm not sure, but I have been told the rules are different for cities & towns as opposed to villages. In my area, made up of villages, the only quiet time I'm aware of is in the summer, 1st June to 31st August, between 3pm & 5pm.

Unless someone is going to buy it & return with it to the UK, then it would be illegal to use it here in Greece, unless the original inporter re-registers it here on Greek plates.

Sorry & way off of post, but after all the doom & gloom of the Brexit posts etc, I had a good laugh at your post! My mind automatically went to thoughts of years ago & the adverts & requests for inflatabile "ladies"

The ensuite ba...

Guy M, I stayed in Zakros itself, at Hotel Zakros, as I was visiting a friend who lives there. It's
a bit of a dive to be honest, but it only cost 52.5 euros for a 3 night stay, including breakfast and all I wanted was a base as I was out with my friend most of the time.
