tony -  some more pictures for you. what an emotional night, eh?! hated seeing you like that. will give you the original photos to add to the others when you visit.  family business!!   we meant what we said. 

there is no need to be like that we are not stupid enough to have fallen for him we all consider him a good friend to us and we know exactly what his job is. all we are doing is keeping in contact with a friend who we all get on with . your experience may have been different but we aint silly enough to think any more of it.

we have taken in what you have said. we are hoping that it is not the situation for us as we also gave him money towards a visit.  . if it is then we have been well and truly had and he is a very good actor.  I/We suppose time will tell, and we hope this is not the case?  However, if he does the same to us then we still have good holiday memories and we would have learnt a very big lesson.  Thank you for your concern, we truly appreciate it.  Bee, Mark & Co

Booked to go back next year - can't wait.  Love to you all guys, missing you poukie!!!.

Hi Jess ---------- seems he's upset you too.  I just think it's a lesson for a lot of people to learn, quite a few have been taken in.  Said we were like family! Then we find he turned his phone off and  has done a runner with the money and loaned items, which he said he would return when he came to UK to see us!! Gullable - we know - my husband got to like him like a son! Luckily enough we have made some fantastic friends there, which we are in contact with and that well makes up for our dissapointment with a certain lad - and we are also returning, but in July, if he is there I gather there will be a queue to get answers!!!!  He is extremely good at his job and a charmer - and boy, there are a few of them out there - we are sure. 

Kalispera Marios, we heard so much about you from Tony. We know you are good friends.  I am sure Tony is upset at what has been written, and we are glad to know he is ok and happy with Sammy.  As a family we got to know him and had a fab friend whilst on holiday.  He is a lovely chap and we certainly do not wish any discontent, but he promised he'd keep in touch.  I agree with the comment about everyone's life being private, but it does appear he promised a lot of girls out there his love and it does appear he hurt a few too!  Such is life.

Hi Marios - my name is Mark, I am Bee's husband.  I would just like to say that Tony is a nice bloke, but he has received bad comments from a lot of young girls because he promised these girls the world, says he loves them all, and promising to meet up with them oustside of work.  I know this because myself and Tony had a few laughs over it.  Unfortunately for a lot of people Tony is a very good charmer, who pulls it off, so Tony here IS at fault knowing the type of people he is doing it to - sorry ladies.  One on One he is a very nice chap and me and my family hope to see Tony when we go back out as we have become friends - although he has to give my wife her ring back, which was on loan because of our friendship!!  Say hello to him for us and ask him to get in touch sometime.  MARK

Hello Marios, I come from the Isle of Wight near Portsmouth/Southampton (the very south of the UK).  #We are visiting Yiannis & Anna in February (just myself and my wife)- we are then back in Tsillivi in July>  Would love to meet you.  from Mark

Marios - you can visit us ANYTIME. we can pick you up from the ferry, it is just a 10 minute ferry from Portsmouth.  Get our telephone number off Tony and ring us, and we can arrange something.  Mark

Hi Tony - Mark here.  Bee told me you phoned.  It was good to hear you are ok, sorry I wasn't there to speak to you but I leave the maternity and midwifery job to Bee!!!!  She said you would ring next week, I look forward to talking to you.  We are hoping to get over to Crete(greece)  sometime in February or March, if we do we would love to see you and your family.  If not we look forward to seeing you in July.  I would like to talk to you so phone again soon, you can talk to us both on the first number or if we are out on the second number.  Really glad you got in touch.  You can keep the money as a tip - seen as you deserve it for giving us a great holiday that we wont forget and we kept you busy and you kept us out of the desert!!!!!  Bee said you give her the ring when we see you - friends!!  Everyone says hi to you.  Phone again soon and text us your number & address.  See you mate  Mark

We all visited at the end of the season.  Ate here 5 times and 4 out of 5 were fantastic, tasty meals.  Tony was a fab waiter, very friendly and a good laugh.  Tony you have to get some more water-ski lessons from Yiannis (HELP!!!!!) got some great photos of you holding on tight!!!!! see you next year - we will all go out again. . 

Message for Tony - its Mark, been trying to get hold of you - where are you? did you get the parcel? Phone me soon.  HAPPY NEW YEAR  to you & your family.  Mark

Just a quick message to say thanks to Yiannis and Anna (not forgetting the children!!) for a fun-filled and hectic few days.  We really enjoyed spending time with you all and learning more about Greek culture.  You made us feel so welcome and we miss you.  Thank you Nikos for the bed - didn't find anything under it then!!!!!  Manos - it was great to see you and spend time with you, we miss you too.  Billy - keep singing and dancing!

HEY TO ALL, JUST A QUICK ONE TO SAY WE WILL SEE YOU TOMORROW (THURS) SO YOU BETTER LOOK OUT CAUSE BEE BEE AND HAZEL ARE COMING ABOUT!!   LOL!!!!

thank you for the postcard yiannis - made our day!!! what did you say - oh yes "have a nice hell - you are not welcome unless you are with your family" . people divorce everyday and i didnt think good friends took sides or made things worse (bee learnt a huge lesson there!!).  thanks for barring us, we found some great places, made some fantastic local  friends( who didnt judge) and had a fab time.  cheers. so i suppose the lesson is - the lesson you tried to teach bee didnt work and you didnt ruin anything!  back in october with kids and quite a few friends, shame we are barred cos we will all be out elsewhere.  bee & i say hi to all our friends in paradise - we had some good times - lol.  miss you all & love ya x   hazel & bee 

Hey Yiannis, Kosta & Charlotte & co, thanks for looking after us and cheering us up, you are bloody crazy, hehe!!!  Felt very welcome, music fab.  Miss your crazy antics!!!!  See you October for one week. Love to all.  Bee & Hazel  xxx

Just like to add my own comment - : I didnt deserve any of your ill treatment Yiannis and neither did or does Hercules.  You know nothing of the situation, you wouldnt listen and you presumed you knew best. UNFAIR. Yours and Anna's  friendship meant a lot to me and I now ask myself why I helpped and spent out to come and arrange your 40th? Stupidity and the belief in friendship! Take care Bee

yiasoo Yiannis, Alan & Co,  thank you for making us so welcome and becoming our friends.  We thoroughly enjoyed our nightly drinks in your bar, your company was great.  Cant believe you made us strip off and put your t-shirts on, how embarrasing!!!  Next time we come - no telling lies about peoples birthdays!!!! (Hi Nikos!!!)  Anyway back in October for one week.  See you then - will text you Yiannis.  Love to all Bee & Hazel xx  beewickert196@hotmail.com

Hi to all you guys!  Missing my garlic prawns!!!!! WOW!!  This place is definately the place to eat well in Tsilivi.  The portions are HUGE and the price is great.  Love you guys, see you October, thanks for looking out for us!  Bee & Hazel xx
