Plakias / nearly there
« on: July 31, 2003, 10:22:10 AM »
In Plakias now - no wind at all today and not so much yesterday so the winds seem to be blowing themselves out hopefully
However I go home tomorrow so they will probably disappear altogether

Plakias / Mosquitos and Chemists
« on: July 22, 2003, 10:13:07 AM »
Hi
We are in Plakias at the moment (first visit ever) and are having a FAB time but the wind is monstrous!!!!
So bad at the moment that it is agony to go on the beach because of the blowing shingly sand whipping - its like loads of injections at once !!!
The locals reckon it is unusual and only started when we arrived LOL and it shouldn't last too long!!!
Would definitely be a nightmare in contacts though

Plakias / More Questions
« on: June 16, 2003, 07:10:43 PM »
Its now only about 5 weeks until we finally visit Plakias and I have a few more questions!!
1.) Am concerned it will be very hot at night so was planning to pack a couple of electric fans - however since they are so bulky was wondering if it might be possible just to buy some there - I got my last one in Spain and it was similarly priced to over here - I am assuming there won't be a B and Q type place - but what do you think experienced Plakias goers? Should I pack them or will I be able to get them there?
(If I buy them there I will give them away at end of trip if they won't fit in luggage)
2.) Have multiple problems with food - what sort of food places are there? I am assuming typical Greek restaurants which I probably won't be able to eat in because of allergies etc - unless staff speak good English and can put up with a fussy customer LOL
3.) I have forgotten question 3 but I did have one so will return later when I remember it LOL
Thanks in advance for any help!

PlakChat / The train!!!!!

LOL Your opinion will be far more common I think ... I don't know many other people that like the trains either!
I just love them - they make me laugh I think they are so silly and so inappropriate so much of thetime that they are Fab LOL

« on: May 08, 2003, 07:06:16 PM »
I was just looking on the Plakias.co.uk site and I saw the link about the train!
I am so excited - I adore these trains - have been on hundreds of them - I am an addict. (sad too)
Has anyone been on it? They all look the same but are very different - went on one a couple of years ago that knocked things over all the time, another year was on one that got stuck under a bridge... I can't wait to go on the train

Plakias / Concerned about situation?
« on: March 22, 2003, 10:00:35 AM »
Have holiday in Plakias booked for July, was going to go and pay the rest of it at travel agent yesterday but didn't as it was suggested to me that because of the war we may not go?
Is anyone else concerned about that? (Im not aiming to start a political discussion BTW) - just not sure whether I should be concerned or not - Mum says it is pretty close to Turkey which may not be a good thing - but I can't tell from my map how close it really is.
Anyone any suggestions - just not sure whether to hold off on final payments till nearer the time???
