*%$@*%@%*  We've just paid our last instalment on the villa & now the exchange rate is going up, up, up - we could have saved thousands.  I'm not complaining though, it's great to see it rising. Just wish I'd had a crystal ball a couple of months ago.

GazCaz, are you winding me up or are you being serious??? Those that know me, know the problems we had with the garden, but to answer your question - we alraedy have a gardener, but thank you.

Hi Sara

No, I had not a clue about your trouble with gardeners, just wanted an excuse to be in Arillas.

Gaz

A large bottle of Ionian Pilsner, in a large Corfu Town supermarket cost me e 1,35.

If Sea Breeze can sell that on for e1.50 then that's pretty good marketing.

Interesting to hear any feedback on this - As you are.

Take it easy

Euro still hovering around 1.164 today.

Will it do that magical e1.20 soon?

Amazing we're hoping for that now. Last year it would have been totally unacceptable.
Times change and we go with the flow I 'spose.
