San Stefanos Online ~ North West Corfu

As has been said on this site so many times, everything is so personal, however just an observation ......with regard to Ozzie Oils and bbq night.I love this place and think Kery's singing is as fantastic as the food there. The welcome is always warm as well! I have attended bbq nights for many years now and had a really good night. However last year I went along and found that there was a quiz going on after the food service and before  Kerry sang. I found the style of this particular quiz very intrusive and it really spoiled our evening there. ( I am normally a very happy quizzer!)  It's just an observation, but it was sufficiently bad to make us cancel our booking for the bbq the following week. I would still thoroughly recommend this restaurant and think it is well worth a visit or two, but unless you are happy with an experience which is a little more Thomas Bay than the original Ozzie Oils maybe avoid the bbq night. Then again ... if that's your thing it may well be an added attraction for you.

As a teacher of 39 years experience I can fully endorse the idea of taking children to visit other countries and cultures. I feel wholeheatedly that during the last week of the summer term in particular it seems like a good idea to take children out of school and frankly, if I had not been a teacher when my own children were young, I would have taken them out. I think that parents should be given the opportunity to take their children out of school for a fortnight a year if they so desire and if their child has reasonable attendance overall. Most teachers that I know would agree with this.
I do understand that nobody understands the ins and outs of various occupations until they have walked a mile in someone else's shoes... but training days are not the choice of teachers! They were imposed by the government some years ago. Some  training days that I have attended have been useful and helped me to develop as a teacher in many ways. Some have been a complete waste of time, but whether useful or not they are not my choice. I would often much rather have been teaching rather than listening to some half baked idea about the latest idea in teaching.

With regard to inclement weather..... In all of my years of teaching I have had a total of 7 days off school because of the weather! Most of these are in recent years when because of us being on a split site the health and safety "experts" have been out in force and prevented us opening in case some child falls over!
Please don't bash teachers over this ruling ... Look at who you vote for.

Got to say it depends on what mood I am in. Really enjoy Yiannis grill room, Nafsika, Ozzy Oils, Olympia, Tasty Corner if I just want a snack, Waves if I want fish and if I am in economy mode ...  2star. Will also eat at Zorbas and very rarely Little Prince, but never really disappointed anywhere. If I can get out to Afionas I love the nIght Owl. Amazing food and atmosphere.

I will be attempting to avoid it at all costs so any bar not screening it has my custom.

Lots of people were asking earlier about

 Entertainment in the village  . The usual tribute acts are on in the Condor and Acabar. Also Groucho is about on his own in El Greco and with Keith in Athens bar. SAD that Darren isn't at 3w but the act that is there on a Sunday night is good ( lots of rat pack stuff) and Margarita has introduced a 60"s 70"s and 80"s music night on Monday. All in all there still seems to be something for everyone.

I know it's all very personal, but I have to say that Two Star is the only place in the village that I have had a bad meal. I even went back on another night just in case they were having an off evening and had a second meal that was less than the standard of most meals in SS. I know it is always busy so lots of people must like it.

I agree totally with Baj. The trouble is that non smokers do NOT have any choice whether they smoke or not if smokers are indulging in their habit. Even if you aren't convinced about the health stuff you still end up smelling of it.
 It might  be a silly comparison but I enjoy doing cross stitch and if I do it at the table it does not affect anyone else....... but if you choose to smoke I have to smell it too.  Not that I do cross stitch at the table as a rule.....(usually too busy eating and drinking and talking too much!)  but you get my drift!

I spend a good deal of my time down "the far end" and I must admit that I find the amount of litter and flotsam and jetsam down there quite depressing at times. I do take a carrier bag with me when I go down to  "that end" and tend to pick up litter and deposit it in a bin on my way back.
It would be great if it was cleaned up.
