... begin making our 'insignificant' contribution to Greek government coffers. Maybe I'll go to see Nico, at the hardware store and cancel my order for aircon. I can manage another year without it. The car couldl go without its annual full service. It'll be fine. The stone wall in the garden? I'll ...

Thank you, ros21m, for saying what many of us must be thinking. I know so many people who, if they are unable to open their businesses this summer, will struggle to pay their rents in the winter and will probably lose their livelihoods and maybe even their homes. I cannot understand the attitude of ...

I'm not sure what there is to respond to, Mouche?

Then don't? If you can, that is!

Mouche,

Are you related to Saddler and Kamisiana? Your styles are very similar. A lot of criticism but no real content.

Yes Warwick, the Ferryman Taverna was on the right at the bottom of the hill as you dropped down in to the village of Elounda. I must look on Google Earth to see if it is still there. Maybe someone on here from that area can tell us? The Ferryman Taverna is still here in Elounda, but it's now an ex...

Yes, I thought I heard someone saying there were two Hunts left after everyone else had been eliminated but I may have misheard.

Monarch very definitely does not overbook now!

KEP in Agios Nikolaos signed and stamped my "proof of life" in December. I returned it to the pension provider with a note to explain who KEP are. No problems with that for the last two years. Give them a try, nothing to lose,

Thank you for this. Seems like another good reason for using only Aegean!

So I will have to carry on living in my little Cre...

'Three blokes in a pub' is a very worthwhile watch with three extremely knowledgeable participents. I'm sure Weymouth College has got many notable alumni. One bloke not in a pub Expert and professor in economics Yanis Varoufakis thoughts on the Euro maybe best not to keep too many Euros in the bank...

I wouldn't bother with that website, unless you want to pay between €3700 and €24,500 per week!

We are very lucky here in Elounda to have Tech Hub, a small technology shop where we can pay bills such as road tax. We no longer have to queue for hours at the bank or post office - at least until everyone finds out that this service is available! I paid ours from this very laptop. Why is it neces...
