Hersonnissos appears to be a bit more cosmopolitan nowadays, with lots of Dutch, German and eastern European holiday makers. but that said, is still very orderly and civilised, with people sitting down in bars etc. I will be visiting Stalis twice in 2024, once with some 40-50 year old mates to watch the first week of the Euros, and back in September with the missus. What I would say is that many places don't start their spruce and decorating until May, for June opening. Ta, that's not a problem we're really going for a bit of a squizz around the archaeological sites and a bit of a paddle (maybe). We're not barflys any more, so AI or HB and a balcony, a view and a fridge for the booze from Lidl is fine. 🙂 I know nothing 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have got an argument club there, but as you are only there for a week, you may not have enough time to finish one 😀 Do you think there'll be some Rams fans around then? 😛 I've not even got a home shirt to go drinking in! #poorshow Edited January 30 by RoyMac5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's it for now. 😏 Will try and get the Mrs drunk later though and talk her into some Italian interrailing in August. Added a few more now. Santorini in August, Geneva in October, Carcassonne again in early June, October and December. NottsRam 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColonelBlimp Posted January 31 Share Posted January 31 Just booked a few days in Rome in September, staying at Rome Times hotel. Never been but always wanted to, plenty of time to compile that sightseeing list. Tamworthram 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the little crafter/makers shop ("The Cabin") just 131ft off King St (down Campbell St, which is dead opposite the Railway pub), if you'd be so kind. 😁 Perhaps consider a small purchase of a new fabric specs case, or even a purse etc, for you journey home. Other fabric items are available from Muckerette's own little portion of the shop, plus lots of other tempting hand made items of all description, from the numerous other makers. #hard sell #blatant extortion #are there any depths this guy wouldn't stoop to? #what a f**kin' liberty #etc. 🤓🍻 Reggie Greenwood and Mostyn6 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Greenhouse up the road is the nearest thing in belper to a Spoons, sky sports, food, dancing and fighting of a weekend. Would suit a Crocodile Dundee type of fella right down to the ground!
