Once again Greece became paralyzed by strike action of thousands of workers. With the (Greece) current financial crisis just when are the citizens of Greece going to realise the damage they are doing to the reputation of this beautiful country? One of the main incomes for the Greek economy is of course tourism, the threat of strike action by transport workers or the threat of blockages by farmers is totally off putting to the family tourist. With the euro / pound exchange still not that good holiday makers this year may well choose to holiday outside the euro-zone, and Turkey is an easy alternative.

Now on a more personal note, I will be flying to the UK from Athens this weekend, please NO MORE industrial action !
