Quite right Jim. :)

"Writing on behalf of Mad Greec, and his local business "Relaxing point" which is the area at the end of the beach with ombrellas. Mad greec , Kostas is the actual name, has to cope with a very recent and sad loss of a close family member and  all things involved . As we are good friends he asked me to informvisitors to Agios Stefanos  about some very unpleasant and really mean posts about him, posted a few days ago,  on the sanstefanos forum with the title BEACHBUMMER. Quite many members from this group might be on http://www.sanstefanos.co.uk/smf/index.php. .
Here's the story:
a British couple, thinking they "own the world", or Agios Stefanos (in their own words) , because they have been coming for many years, were upset about him as he asked them to move on a bit ,after they had choosen to place themselves right in front of the sunbeds he rents out, thus annoying his customers. There had been plenty of empty space  in the area for the couple to settle themselves nicely . just a few meters further down the beach.
Anyway, the conversation they had was not the most pleasant one, Kostas gave in in the end. The other point and reason he asks people to move on just a bit, is the turtle eggs' protection the police asked for. If a few people place themselves near to the site.. others will follow, as we all know.
Now, complaining is not forbidden in this country, but spreading false accusations is not acceptable! . The complaining person on the forum , a Joan- whoever that might be- wrote this :
,"JOAN :I hear he allegedly is unlicensed which is unfair on the other hoteliers"...............
Kostas asks for an immediate public apology for this ! He is fully and legaly licensed from the Corfu authorities for last year's season and this year's, paying rent , taxes and whatever else involved.  He is utterly upset and sad about the incident.
There is no need for comments here, please just be informed.  Sadly quite many long year visitors seem to think they "own" the place and its people , in many cases! They don't, none of us , local or foreign, does!
Please show respect and consideration for businesses, all kind of changes , families, relationships and much more!"

anna:
subject closed for Kostas. As i had said, he is not on this forum, and has got enough other problems right now personally. It was important to him to state that all he does is legal.One cant just keep quiet when false accusation are made.
