1.59/litre average

So €1.59 (at 1.15 €/£)  = £1.38/litre = £6.29 per Gal

Gasp!!!! ......... and we thought it was expensive here in the UK

We met some people last week in Arillas who were quite put out as they said the brochure stated there was a cash machine so had brought no Travellers cheques. They were going to walk over to Agios Stefanos but were not 'walkers' and not looking forward to it.

We later found that the ATM in San Stef at the Thomas Bay Hotel was  not working so they were not going to be pleased !  The hotel receptionist said it might be a week or 2 before the Bank fixed it.

If you have a car and are out travelling there is an ATM in the centre of Agros (on way to Troumbeta and Corfu town) almost opposite the junction by the pharmacy. It is working and had money in yesterday.

I was told last Thursday that the 'hole in the wall' was being measured up the following day by another bank......

Does anyone have an idea of the commission charged locally for changing Euro Travellers Cheques?

Don't know whether to take Euro at the UK exchange rate, plus commission in Arillas, or pay 1.5% commission on Sterling Travellers Cheques plus exchange commission in Arillas to get a better rate. Aaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrgh!

Bring back the ATM! It was so easy then!!!!!!!

Phil why dont you take Euros? Then you save all the hassle of changing and commission etc.. Yes its a risk incase you lose it all but I begrudge seeing all my hard earned holiday money being frittered on commission.  From memory I think its about 2%

Pat, you probably will - since EasyJet changed our flights, we are now in town until about 9pm on 26th. That's if we ever leave.....

Take care. See you then.
