Hi All

We arrived at San Stef on Friday afternoon having left a very wet and windy Glasgow Airport. Stepped off the plane to bright sunshine and 23 degrees. Been the same since and eight day forecast also fine.

Little Prince as good as ever and food prices very reasonable. Had the sizzling steak last night, fantastic and only 7 Euros. Beer around 2.50 for a pint. Hiring a car for a few days at 25 Euros a day this early in the season. Place is still quite quiet with a few restaurants still to open. Ozzy Oils was still being prepared yesterday but I think we'll definitely give it a go when it opens.

Must say we had a great welcome from all at the Little Prince who had remembered us from two years ago. Also from the Silver Star across the road. Says something about us I guess.

Anyone must go, busy doing not a lot :D

Glad the weather and food are good. The people at The Little Prince are great and remember everyone. We are going to try sizzling steak this year for the first time - sounds yummy and can't wait. :)

Glad both of you are enjoying that lovely sun.It's raining here....boo hoo.
On your travels did you notice if there was any action around where the old Tex Mex was? Someone mentioned that Zorbas had got it and it was going to be Italian.

Yes I am in San Stef. Waiting all over. Haven't any news yet as not long here. First stop - a big Mythos (and that's exactly what I'm doing). Will have news of prices, changes etc before too long.

Ahhh good the first wave has hit the beach...lets hope he/she can get messages back from the front line
I am "he" & I can. Scottish And Ancient (even older than Tonyco1)! Weather is wonderful!!!
I didn't think that was possible lol!!! ;)
 Glad the weather is good for you as well. Hope you are enjoying the Mythos. :)
DeeMac - I really must thank you from the bottom of my heart!!
THANK YOU !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
Not so much for the information which is very-very gratefully received from all of us here,
but for being OLDER than me!! Thanks again - I was begining to think I was the Fossil of San Stefanos!! LOL!!

By the way we really love that cottage - we once stayed at the Quietude about 20 + years ago with some friends,
it was well fitted out then - even a washing machine, but we also liked the cottage - who rents it out these days???
One more thing - no a few actually if you don't mind too much!!
We went in May last year - the Kebab shop opp. Condor? nothing open then!
Was that in the new build that Stefanos put up, I thought it was to be a jewellery shop or something??
or is it the one a bit further up in front of Stamatis roughly??
Is Yiannis doing a Restaurant now or what? What is in the old Yiannis establishment??
Is Ossie Oils still running?? any info appreciated and have a brill Holiday!!
One more thing = can you spot where the S S webcam is now located and ask Noula / Ireana when it will be running again please!!
Oh and when you have finished running all our errands - you can have a nice beer and a great holiday!! ;D ;D
Sorry meant kebab shop opp Athens Bar (Called Yiannis) doing take away  +a few tables, his old place is still called Yiannis but I believe his cousin is running  it. Leo & Jenny's place opens 6.30 tonight & is called Mythica. Ozzy oils is open.  Ask me another!
Just as asked - what is going on around TexMex next to Zorba's and what shops are open opposite the Condor?

LisaK123, thats a great idea, nothing like a re-charge I say!! Just make sure you don't burn and come back looking like a solar panel. LOL

I have someone sitting by me salivating over the above comment! Now she is so upset as she has to have Kleftiko tonight. My personal fave and I refuse to cook 2 differing meals! Not long until 26 June then she can buy her own.  :-*
