It does seem to be better than last year. Over the weekend there was an out of order sign on it, but it was back in use today.

Good site Jules. Just got a delivery from Crown yesterday. Ordered about 10 days earlier and arrived on the agreed date. Got €1.12/£1 no commision. Every little bit helps. Just a small point, phone or internet banking required.
Plane tickets arrived on Saturday so holiday is now becoming a reality. Yaaaay!!!!
So at the moment I think Postman Pat is wonderful, doesn't only deliver bills!! LOL.   Yammas.

Hi Tony, you and quite a few others on the forum will remember the really good days of the Drachma. When it was harder to spend your money than to make it last the whole holiday!
Try telling that to the kids of today. Oh happy days.

First visit to Corfu was to Roda about 30years ago. First time I tasted ouzo. As you say, VERY large measures! Memories of that night a bit (very) hazy! LOL!!
First visit to SS in 2001 and have been back every year since and all being well in the future. It's just sooooo addictive! Have to keep getting my fix.
Pound moved up a touch today but a long way to go.

I remember prices being in drachmae and leptas. Only in shops though,it was rounded (usually) down. Mind you, the leptas were horrible little things.
