I have just seen & read it now, thank you Maud!

OK, speaking as a retired Civil Servant, albeit from a politically based family, my father at 92 years old has recently become a Parish councillor & stood around 60 years ago for Parliament. I worked for HMC&E, then HMRC, then UKBA then UKBF, before I could take it no more & was in the f...

I am NOT saying I agree, but it's not a...

NO COMMENT! How strange ND want to abolish Capital Controls! And yes, before anyone states the obvious.......

I have never heard of this, if something sounds too good to be true, it's normally a BIG con. Ask the firm to give you details of their satisfied customers, tell them you want to see examples of their work, especially a house they did 15 years ago, that still looks perfect!!!! I think they will be r...

Having spoken to many friends from all over Crete, it appears that almost all of them, that live in the Agios Nikolaos area, have had a lot of problems exchanging their UK Licence for a Greek one.

I was extremely happy that they opened the new stretch of road from Agia Varvara to Moires on Saturday. I drove down to Matala on Sunday & it cuts 20 minutes off the journey time!!!

Contact Nomad International. They certainly do removals from UK to Italy & Greece. I don't know if they could collect from France, but worth giving them a call or email. Many people on Crete have used them & they come highly recommended. I've used them myself on numerous occassions, but not ...

I sold my flat in London when I moved here permanently. My UK Bank accounts, Pension provider, etc, etc all have my Greek address. The only document I still had with my UK address was my UK drivivng licence, which is in the process of being exchanged for a Greek one. I am however, still on the UK El...
