Does any one remember me??
« on: June 21, 2006, 01:37:35 PM »
Not sure if any of you will but I worked in the Ostaco Bar for the summer in 1998. I was only 17 but have been going to Plakias since I was 14, unfortunatly I havent managed to get out there for a couple of years but will be going in oct, can't wait to see everyone!  It is my mum and dad that have bought the ariadne, I hope you will try and go in and taste the food, even the full english breakfast!

Hi Louisa

and welcome to the forum, I'm afraid my memories of the Ostraco are some what mythos affected!  

we had realised the ariadne had been taken over, but certainly i didn't know it was english people! I think they need to make sure people realise it's under new management as the old owners had run it down somewhat   but i wish them/you the best of luck with it  

cheers

Thank you I will let them know that, come to think of it I dont think i've ever eaten in there before! I'm sure you may know them, they usually go to Plakias May/June and again in Sept/Oct? My dad Sam is scottish and used to be quite a drinker, though now trying to make a success of the business he just has the odd raki! A little news for you Louisa (Sharron's dog) had puppies, a stray got her! one was still born, the second unfortunatly died and little Manolis has given the third to my mum!

Hello

Yes I worked there briefly, continued to clean it for a while to when I started in Ostraco! It was the hardest working but best summer of my life!

Hi Louisa,

Of course I remember you - I was always sure Sharron named her dog after you!  

Sadly, I'll be home again before your trip - but I'm sure we will catch up soon - and by the way - I remember your mum too - will certainly be looking her up next visit!

OMG! I remember you louisa, from the hexagon and ostraco, although most likely you might not remember me!?
I spoke to you alot about working in plakias- you asked if I was going to stay that summer in '98 but unfortunatly I didn't.  I ended coming back though and worked in the apollo bar and forum bar the following year! Wow, the ariadne eh? Fantastic! have fun!!

Hello I hope you had a lovely time? So how was my dad? I'm guessing my mum was here at the time as she came home for a wedding! I haven't had the chance, or money to get out there to see them yet, but am looking forward to when i do!

Yes Louisa, you got it! I have a picture of you and me in the hexagon somewhere!
 I look quite a bit different now! I was very sad to hear about manolis - I had just had my first son at the time so it was quite emotional, we used to stay with his brother george and his wife maria - I heard she'd got another recent addition to her family last year- a little girl this time! Great news.  Do you know if Manolis mum, is still with us? The last time I saw her was at the graveside and i was suprised that she'd remebered me, she's a lovely lady.
 Anyhow I would be grateful if, when you're next in Plakias, you could pass on my greetings to Sharon and Yianni, have they had any more children, Louisa?

Hi we had a great time as we do every time. Your Dad seemed fine & happy sounds like they've worked hard on the restaurant so I wish them lots of success. We are back at the end of september so might pop in for meal then.

I was very sad too, we started seeing each other the summer i was out there, not till the end of sept though but we had some really good times until i came home in november! I went back out twice the following year and went to live again in 2000 but i was already pregnant so i had to come home and decided to keep the baby, manolis seemed upset with me but we still talked! Lewis was born just before manolis died so emotional also! I think his mum is still around, i haven't been for a couple of years now coz of new arrival etc! I haven't been to the grave yet, though i would like to go and put something there, i did pass by where it happened and couldn't understand what he was doin! I will pass on your greeting, i talk to sharron quite often, no more children them! if you have msn i would like to give you my addy, would be good to chat.. x x
