In that case is it somewhere near the tennis courts.

What is our surname and what colour did I last use?

Been thinking about this for ages Don the only thigs I can come up with are:
Whyte+Green= Celtic= Glasgow= =Celtic=Irelend = Stadiums= Stadia==Olympics ==Olympia
Most likely totally wrong but it gave me something to do
Sue xxx
-
I also think it could be the Olympia or the Athens Bar which serves food, as The Olympics were held in Athens in the Past and they have a big stadium!!
Yes - I know it's crazy - but what the heck!!
Tony C
-
Your logic on this one sound as good as mine Tony!!!!!

Good use of logic but probably closer to HQ as the Celts call their stadium!
-

Another clue if no one guesses soon
Tony
-
Golden Beach.!!!!
-
Golden Beach.!!!!
WELL DONE!!!! - -Told you it was easy!!!
The 3 Brothers are Nikos (who still runs it) - Manthos (of the Taverna) and Stefanos (of the Condor).
The Golden Beach of San Stefanos is the resorts main attraction - or one of them anyway!!

Surely MAGNET is the main ATTRACTION lol
The Magnet was renamed Simple
(Hopefully not after the owner Stefanos who now rents it out and works as a waiter in the Thomas Bay now),
It was being run by a friend of Dimitri, (Nondas's son - Elphita Bistro),
It definitely was the Main Attraction in San Stefano's, as named by the bar's only 3 customers!!
-
Here is one for you
"Here comes the candle to light you to bed" ????????
Sue - is it Summer Dreams?????
Tony C
-
Sorry Tony No
Next clue: Here comes the chopper to chop off your head!!!!!
-
Know the nursery rhyme but can't picture a Taverna or bar at the moment to go with it!!!! :-[
-
"Chip chop - Chip chop--- The last mans head"
Now go back to the start??????
-
Is it perhaps the juice bar? ZEST For LIFE ? Sandra's idea!
-
Well done SANDRA your prize is in the postxxxxxxx

Thanks, I'll never hear the last of this LOL

Tony C
Have you ever done RE or like me was it that title of a bygone age RI? What is Laurel AKA?
Ok - well it was RI - Unfortunately I have one of the "milestone Birthdays" coming up late April,
so the Bus pass is getting closer, luckily I have one of those special mirrors that tell me I am still only a young stud.
(hang-on - I have to pick linda up - she collapsed with laughter!!), but I always ducked out of RI class before "Laurel" came up.
Are you talking about the Church? - or the little memorial up on the top - I was here (SS) the year it was errected after the Priest fell over the cliff and survived.
or could it be:
A Laurel (LDS Church), a 16–18 year-old participant in the Young Women's program of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints
according to wickipedia!!

Playing for time I guess on Tonys quiz :-[
-
Yes! Just haven't a clue. About TonyCo's question that is.
-
I just don't have a clue at all lol!!!!!!!! ;) :-[
-
OK - Ford make the Ford ?? (usually regarded as a womans car -looks like a handbag with wheels - yes still a new model - does Katie drive one?),
and then think about the Mini - what can you come up with?
Really easy - if you know your bars!!!!
-
Easy!!you must be joking Tony even that clue didn't help me xxx
-
Kamini????????????????????
-
Kamini????????????????????
Well Done Jules - The G&T will be waiting for you!!
Sue - you need to get out more - or watch Top Gear
(actually I am led to believe you only ever wear "Top Gear" - according to Don - Faux-Leopardskin I believe).
Here are the the clues - - - - - - -
Ford make the Ford KA add it to the Mini KAmini or Karmini Bar Run by Michaelis who is married to Katie
Katie was the Rep for Greek Connection Holidays, she looked after us in 1983 the first year we stayed in San Stefanos.
Well worked out Jules!!
No sign of Don here I see - you girls must have exhausted him!!!!
-
Here goes ....
Maybe this will help to keep one of SS attractions well groomed...... ;)
-
Is it The Beachcomber Jules
-
Is it The Beachcomber Jules
Sandra says it sounds good to her! I say DOH!!! I feel a thicko!
-
Is it The Beachcomber Jules
Certainly correct Sue - over to you
-
Another one for you - - A place to go in San Stefanos - - we are going back a bit now!!
Clue;
It is now closed but in full view -
it was used by the Nazi's in WW2 to keep their secrets safe?
Now I am sure you three musketeers are all old enough to have either fought in WW2
or at least seen a film about a U-Boat a few+ years back that featured this in the main story line.
-
Now now Tony how old do you think we all are. If you remember U boats etc are you the oldest. ;) ::)
-
By a day maybe!! - Don must be older than me!!
any idea's now -
take a walk around the streets of SS in your mind - for a couple of years it was the in place to be seen - maybe!!
-
Never found San Stef until 1999 when my parents took me for my eighteenth!

-
Ok this will give it away - you can see it from the Olive press and it's also the name of a machine the Germans used during the war to encode & decode - it was the central part of the plot in a war film about a German Uboat (submarine).
But this is also the name of a once popular evening venue, going back quite a few years.
If you noticed the very visible sign - you would think -
Hmmmmmm! what is that place - bet Don is doing the Boogie-Woogie woo in there!!
So what is this place?????????
-
ENIGMA ??????????????????
-
ENIGMA ??????????????????
At last - and the film Enigma is on tonight!!!! on the TV!!
Well done - a pint of Mythos for you!!
Girls - don't you remember the battle of the night clubs of SS - the Enigma v's The Condor's simply named "CLUB".
The Enigma folded first the Stefanos closed "CLUB" as it really was not what this resort was all about!!
-
Yes thanks , but where should you find the best cigars in the village? I really enjoy one with my Metaxa.
-
In the Havana!! ;D 8) ::) ???
Really Don - Smoking Cigars must make you public enemy No. 1!!
Stick to the Mythos!!
The stench of a cigar to a non-smoker is really - really bad!!
And I am sure it can't do much to attract Sue and Jules either -
unless they are attracted to emphasima!!
No mate give them up and you will be able to run the length of the beach,
without chucking your lungs up!!

You not heard of the saying "Lincolnshire Yellow Belly" In the old days Lincolnshire soldiers had yellow fronts on their jackets, that is where it orignated from.
There is another story about sheep and yellow dye but not too sure if that is true.

Nice curried in the Caribbean! The goat that is! .......... Hope Sues cold is better! :o

One of my staff brings in the occasional curried Goat and rice, and always shares it, together with some jerk chicken.
I have a diverse assortment of staff so I tend to get offered a variety of foods from all over - when as they say -
"the missus cooked too much".
-
I think Jules and I could do with a Hot curry to kill the germs.
-
Don't worry - you'll be cured by August!!
-
My family used to have a "smokers yard" they could CURE anything

Horses for courses (or fish) I presume!!

Ok - The old building this Bar was in was re-built a few years ago, the Bar is no longer there.
It now has an alternative use and looks pretty modern now the extended buildings have been errected.
I always remembered how I liked the 3 Greek dancers and took a picture of it - you can no longer see this!!
However it is captured on my phone as my screensaver.
The Cocktails were great and we often stopped ther on the way back from the Beach for a cold beer (Draught Amstel).
Situated in the "Older" area of San Stefanos - - - need more clues???
Remember - big connection with 3 Greek dancers
Big connection with Cocktails
You must get it now!!

Ok - the 3 greek dancers were on a mural or painting (Very large one), one the wall. (That will give it away for a lot of folk).
I am sure that this place was still open 6 years ago, not far from the beach, a good place to stop when walking back to the Apt.
In the quieter part of San Stef.
It is named after it's owner's wife and also a cocktail - now think about it - it is easy.
If you dont' get it I will give you a very big clue
Now who lives in a house (shop) like this????????
PS - Sue - I am going to puncture your boots!! and Don (old chap) your'e shouting b'coz you are the deaf one!!
-
Was it the Sundowner? ??? :-\
-
Margaretta don't know is that is the name of a bar/taverna that use to be in San Step but it is worth a try.

Sue - - - Well done!!! - good guess.
MARGARITTAS - It used to be attached to the Mini-Market.
The bar was a good place to quench your thirst on the way 'home'.
It had a good resturaunt similar to 2 Star, the Painting was a 6 foot high, Cartoon like Picture of 3 Greek dancers, on the wall.
Years ago - it was run by Noula, but named after Mum.
A few years back, the family re-constructed the buildings on the land, to ensure that Paula (Gift shop) & Marilyn (Mini-Market with Mum), each has a seperate business, Noula has the Travel business, so a good future. The parents have the Apartments.
In the eighties and nineties - they used to run Greek Nights, & often specialised in Lobster Meals - it was a great evening out.
We thought it was a shame when they closed the Cafe' bar, but I expect competition was hotting up then and it has to be worthwhile for the effort.
Did you ever try this place????
-
Must have used it or a cafeteria on that site for bacon butties while on our midday stroll.
-
I think we had lunch in there on our first SS visit in 2000. It was ok :)
-
Wooooh I won :P :P :P

I agree - this quiz made me think back and remember the very first year we went, we had a tight budget and no holiday booked.
We saw a Sunday Mail advert for a last min-booking, (el-cheapo), we arrived (just us two - kids left with mum), on a Greek Connection holiday, (it went Bust a few years later), Katie was the tour rep (Michaelis's wife - Karmini bar).
It was 1983, it was 05:00 in the morning off a night flight, there seemed to be nothing there.
(We had done Majorca the year before), I remember saying - "this is a mistake - this is going to be our worst ever holiday", We then found out it was the best place we had ever been to, and in those days there was just the Golden Beach Htl, Nafsika Htl, Manthos Taverna, Sunset Taverna, Barras (different name) and the Mini Market - with the attached Margarittas Cafe' bar.
That was it apart from an old VW Camper Van on the Beach called the Kantina for snacks and Water Sports, including Windsurfing, where a very young boy (pre-teen), made everyone look silly with his expertise - that was Leon & Capt. Nikos ran it all.
No Beach beds then either!! We went to the Mini Market "Greek-Night" and Vasillias Spit roast a whole lamb over an open fire.
He put slits in it and inserted whole cloves of garlic. It was and still is the best Lamb we have ever had.
The Greek dancers that night were just the locals, with Capt. Nikos and his brother Spiros as the main attractions, and they were still the best we ever saw dance on Corfu, Nikos did Zorba's Dance and he was great at it.
Funny how such an impromptu night like that can burn such great memories, and make a lasting impact - we couldn't wait to get back the next year and we brought the kids as well - and we have all been going back ever since and seen it grow into what it is today.
San Stefanos attracts a certain kind of people and I guess we are those people - the idiots seem to steer clear thankfully!!!
