Hello Denis and Chris,

Don't you have to be eligible for Saga services (i.e. over 50) to be a member? On that basis Mr and Mrs Harribobs don't qualify! But I do. Not that I've ever been in Plakias in the autumn when most of this venerable group seems to appear.

FYI, in the middle two weeks of May at Kostas Chrysoulla the average age around the pool was something in the 50s I would estimate.

Let me guess:

The Saga Louts : a group of legendary ? men
The Skilos club: a pack of dogs (as a skilos is a dog in greek)

Explanations - for None UK people here.. The very worst of some types of UK hooligans (of whom we are NOT proud) are often referred to as Lager Louts. UK people over 50 are entitled to join a respectable organisation called Saga. Saga rhymes with lager and there you are.

Skilos does indeed refer to dogs but the story behind our exclusive Skilos Club - to quote Dennis of Livicon (who knows the full story) - "is too long and complicated to explain".
