Or possible in his notes for his university Greek course. Where he would have found that the the Greek for old is "paleo" not "palio". But "palio" might be a swearing version.

Leave me alone. I'm old and frail.
As you know Jimbo there are several different words in Greek for the word "old" all depending on the noun being described e.g.
 the old house,the old man, the old lady,etc. all different, or "the old people's home" which is probably where half of us should be!!

To Pailiopaido is "the bad boy" the one they dance to at Zorbas, and other taverna's
My apologies Waspman you're right, written as one word it does mean "the bad boy" although "palio" is the Greek for "old",
 Just another vagary of the Greek language.

It's called To Paliopaido" (The Bad boy) sung by Dimitris Mitropanos, now sadly deceased (2012)

Surprised Jimbo couldn't find that in his Greek dictionary, very unusual!!
Sorry Waspman but I don't think that translation is quite correct,"palio" means old and "paidon" can mean fellow or chap,so if we are looking for a literal translation it would be "The Old Fellow" or "The Old Chap",think I've got that right.

I wonder if those who promote the independent bookings do the same back home in Blighty.

For example do you generally buy your petrol/diesel from the local independent petrol station struggling to make ends meet at about £1.50 p/l or do you go to your nearest corporate battleship like the Tesco/Asda type outlets and pay £1.36 p/l.

Just asking like.....  ;)
I book my holidays independently,I shop at Tesco but we buy our petrol at the local village petrol station!!

But he's got a smart mini-bus now,the old red pick up truck was much more fun,throw your cases in the back and jump in and that was before
the hill was tarmacked so it was a bit of a bumpy ride.

i used to have a tape called..Play Bouziki  but broke over time.bought it from pelie&Marias.Dont see the music on cd much now.
They sell CDs at Corfu airport if you can't find them in the village,but if you really can't wait and you need your Bouzouki fix now,
 Amazon sell Greek CDs.
