This is a bit cheeky cos we actually stayed at the Tsilivi Admirals but were never away from Planos Bay ( Yeh I know that some First Choicers are worried about subsidising us Thomas Cook plebs but........get a life!!). If you are looking for an entertaining holiday with great people then book a holiday here. 

A special hello and thanks must go to our friend George, the entertainments manager, who we know and love from last year  and also to Lee who became like an old friend in such a short time.  To both......."We hope you're there next year cos we will be!!!"

 

A special hello to Marc and Louise, Scott and Gillian, Andy and Clare, Steve and Joanne, Mick the Brummie, Rick and Jane, and the cheeky kids of all of them who made the holiday what it was.  Stay in touch and see you next year and just in case I didn't give some of you my e-mail then here it is nickolodeum@hotmail.com

Didn't notice the boxes for Location, Cleanliness etc on previous posting but this should correct it 

Hi Gill, Scott and the Boys,

Sorry I haven't e-mailed back yet.  Have you heard from Mark and Louise?  My mail to them could not be delivered.  If you have any contact details I would be grateful for them.  Anyway.........you going back there some time?  We will and will take our daughter Sarah with us as she's a big fan of Tsilivi and George.  It was great meeting you all and I'm still amazed at you Gill, for drinking that wee vodka that Lee prepared on your birthday which I think was our last night!!!  Hope Scott's pool game has improved too.

Hi Lee

Your English is better than my Greek !!  Sorry you were unable to make it to England but if you're going back to work at the Planos then we'll see you in July/August 2006.  Happy New Year

Hi

We're returning on the 20th July for our third holiday at the Admirals.  Get the drinks ready George....we're getting a thirst on!  Sarah will be with us and she's dead excited.  Recommend this hotel highly...you will not be disappointed.

See you soon Tsilivi 

I think the Admirals gets a lot of bad press from some on here.  If you want total peace and quiet....go elsewhere.  If you want fun and to keep kids entertained, then it's for you.  Time of year will play a part but so does attitude....if you set people up to have a bad time, they will.......end of.  See you all at the best hotel on the island in 10 sleeps..............eeekk.....dead excited!!

Wher did my last posting go?  Took me half ann hour of typing with my short-hand finger!!

Hi All,

Nice to hear from you Gill and you girls, Shaz and Claire. Wish we had spent more time with you too....we would have had a laugh!  Will post final pics when I figure out how.  Biggest surprise of the fortnight was Gill and Scott turning up who we met at Planos last year.....amazing!!  Hello to Craig and Shaun

Finally, a big thank you to the usual suspects....George, John Boy and Davey.  Interesting nights entertainment THAT night George.  You know.....when Sarah sold all the bingo tickets for you.  Enough said!!!

Only downside was the 3 hour delay at the third world toilet that passes as a departure lounge.  6 hours in total at the mercy of the rip-off sandwich seller who charged 11 euros for an inedible roll and a bottle of warm water!! 

Not the Admirals fault though and I'd go back in a heartbeat

Looks like that's all the messages for another year.  See you all in Zante next year........good to see you in Liverpool last week George  A few drinks together as ever!!

Well hello y'all............another fun season is well under way at the Admirals.  I see that 'old' reprobate George is back ......but never mind!!  We're coming  back for our fourth visit in as many years on the 26th July.........*runs around like a demented chicken*................yessssssssssssss.

25 sleeps to go !!!!

I would love to help Laura ..............only 24 sleeps to go..............4th visit..............can't wait

20 sleeps to go!!!!!!!!!!!!!

16 sleeps....oh.....and George?  Answer your emails............. 

We are really getting in the mood now.......I've finished work and just winding down ready for Thursday.  Just to keep up my childlike posts, we have just 5 sleeps to go!!! yipeee.  Hope to meet folk from previous years but if not I'm sure there will be loads of great people there who we've never met before.  George is there of course.........lol

 Pics taken across the road at the Planos Bay in 2005.  Mark on his own and Mark, Louise, Linda, Scott and Gill in the second.  What a last night of the holiday that was!!! Our mate Mark looks well happy in his pic........feeling no pain....lol.

Thanks a lot to Laura and Vanessa x.  We have 0 sleeps left to go.....so at the unearthly hour of 4am, I bid you both farewell and I will certainly remember you to George. 

(This post is especially for Gill)

Sorry you never enjoyed it Gillian............we've never had a bad holiday there and we're going on our 6th trip soon....when? I hear you ask...............well in 10 sleeps actually....heh heh

Hope you're having a great time Sharon.....if you haven't left when we get there on the 18th, perhaps George will introduce us all to each other....if not....have a ball!!!

p.s. 7 sleeps to go 

OMG how did Carol North find her way onto this board........anyway, 0 sleeps to go and really excited!!!!   Look out Zante and see you in a few hours........... 

Someone needs to tell the tale of the cat and the noodles Carol ....chow mein flavour I believe!!!!

Ahhhh..................the end of another year.............Merry xmas to all and hope to see you real soon..........byeeeeeeeeee

We saw the writing on the wall last year as well.  We were warned about the limited rooms for Thomas Cook this year.  Had a total of 5 great holidays at The Admirals but we made the decision to go elsewhere for our holiday in 2008, as the atmosphere was changing.  It's the end of an era and I doubt we'll find a similar place where we want to return to again and again.  Enjoy counting your money Mr Christos, even if it is coming from miserable looking, unsociable and arrogant people.  Nuff said..........The End.
