Title: San Stef Newspaper
Post by: Jimbo on July 09, 2011, 09:06:52 PM
It was great last night to get a free copy of the hot-off-the-press newspaper!

It's eight full-colour pages, edited by the beautiful and talented Cerys of San Stef Travel, and - wow! -  has she done a great job! Lots of useful information, very well written, and a great feature about a couple who met San Stef, fell in love, got married in San Stef, and have now moved to the village.

The paper has been sponsored by local business. It's fun for old hands, and will be invaluable for newcomers.

Hey - there's even a picture of Noula, Sally and Cerys on the front page.

Speaking as a (very) old hack, I can tell you that this very well done. Full marks, Cerys :-)

Oh Jimbo, you do know how to make a lady blush! Thank you for your kind comments. We aim to make it an annual feature so any fresh ideas will be more than welcome for future issues.

It will be available from many outlets all over the village including San Stefano Travel. It includes an abundance of information including the history of the olive trees, about San Stefanos, a traditional Greek recipe and some stories about local people and as Jimbo mentioned, a couple who met, married and moved to San Stefanos. I'll be sure to keep you a copy Jules T.

Managed to get a copy in the Little Prince last night and agree with Jimbo that it is excellent particularly for anyone new to San Steph.

The english Corfu paper has ceased publication and this will fill the void.

Save us a copy as well - we always used to buy the old "Local Paper".
Well done Cerys
