There no taxis in Agios Stefanos, but San Stefano Travel do an evening trip by minibus.

Thanks for that. I'm sure we'll be fine. We're not posh and don't need much apart from a bed and a balcony. We  know Elisseos well - we stayed at Moros one year - and we've watched a lot of footie at Silver Moon. And frankly, the whole deal including taxis to and from East Midlands is costing less than £300 each per week, so no complaints.

Hope we'll meet up with friends from the forum from time to time!

I was just thinking that if I was in my usual position in front of Mistral I'd be able to paddle without getting off the sunbed!

I'd be grateful if anybody could tell me what the TUI rooms are like at Silver Moon.  I know a lot of people it there, but what's the difference between the private rooms and TUI rooms?

San Stefanos news and views / TUI madness again
« on: December 19, 2023, 09:03:38 PM »
We would like to go to The Little Prince. It's the only place with a lift, which is great for elderly people, and they are good friends.

Three weeks would be ideal, but it's NOT possible. We went for three weeks in 2022. TUI has decreed that one cannot go for more than two weeks. I have that on authority from LP.

LP do not have private rooms, so that avenue is not available. I contacted TUI "customer service" and had the usual vague and patronising replies, boiling down to "You can't, so just go away."

This seems utterly stupid to me. What do you think?

He looks a bit like Biffo the Bear, only less intelligent.

I suspect it'll be worse here tomorrow! Nafsika's closed. I'll be surprised if much is open after Friday.

Sometimes as a reporter it's hard to remain dispassionate. I spent many weeks in Tel Aviv working on a film, living with the Israeli director, and went to Gaza. There, alongside a beautiful Mediterranean beach, were people living in densely-packed tiny shacks made of cardboard. The contrast between that and the high-rise buildings of Tel Aviv certainly made an impression upon me. I am glad I'm not having to report from the houses where babies were massacred or a music festival where young people were gunned down. But we react to that because it's horribly personal, and it's dangerous to think that raining bombs on a city is somehow different. Surely we can and should condemn evil atrocities whomsoever commits them?

The BBC should not label any organisation anything. It's not its job.

There have been countless people on radio and TV saying that Hamas is a terrorist organisation. There have also been some saying that bombing a densely-packed region with a population of two million, half of whom are children, constitutes a war crime. Cutting off water, food and fuel is a breach of the Geneva Convention, and that's a fact, not a label or an opinion.

My view is that this is ghastly nightmare of human suffering perpetrated by two sides both of whom are terrorists.
