Greetings from San Stefanos.

[deemac]

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.

P.S. Sun starting to go down but very pleasant weather. Forecast is good.

Enjoy your long cold Mythos

You've just made me go into my cellar and drag a couple of cans up to the kitchen fridge. I was saving them for a special occasion so you can consider yourself honoured Deemac!

Hope you're enjoying life in SS. Only been on the forum a few times since joining a few weeks ago. We're back in SS in 5 weks after a 16 year absence. A couple of weeks ago some of the SS regs gave me an idea of drink/food prices. I'd be interested to know average prices for a large Mythos and a smirnoff voda + diet coke in the bars this year, if you have a mo over the weekend. This euro/pound exchange rate is playing havoc with my holiday budget this year!!

Friends of ours just flew back to Norwich from San Stef today. They were getting €1.12 to the £. Better than here!

The exchange rate always seems much better in the resort - Deemac have a good one - do you have a laptop with you or are you using the internet cafe'??

You can now use Thomas Bay for internet access.

1.12 euros that is better than UK. Doesn't surprise me though. UK banks, travel co.s, any UK based exchange, always been a rip-off!
So how were they exchanging? Traveller's cheques? Pounds sterling cash for euros in hotels? Exchange shop?

So many questions, but I am not surprised. To Don - Thanks! Bristle Boy - Big beer €2.50, vodka & coke €4 (spirits €2.50, soft €1.50), meals seem the same as last year e.g. 3 course Thomas Bay €7 . I saw €1.12 to  the £ yesterday, but prob commission off that.  To Tonyco1 & Don - I have my laptop, but my accommodation includes a pc.(The Cottage, behind Quietude).  Yiannis is now in what was the Kebab shop opposite Condor, Leo & Jenny's place is due to open tonight (name not yet revealed). I think that's all for now, be back soon!

Thanks for all of that Deemac. Sounds all ok to me. So Yiannis is about  - I'm glad - he is a character.

Deemac......very much appreciated; sounds reasonable, compared to many places in the Med. Last June in Santorini that combo of drinks cost us about 9 euros.....and that was on the 'cheap' side of the island! Now enjoy your holiday!
