The tax man cometh!

Greece has a very strange tax system, or not, depending on your viewpoint. Having been told to use an accountant to do our tax returns, and this by the tax office, we duly did so and found to our delight that it was not another rip-off like in the UK where we used to pay an accountant £1500 + a year to make a return for 12 invoices! So, we've been told the amount we have to "import" into Greece to sustain our lifestyle and we're pleasantly surprised. Good news, for once, from a tax office!!

The visitors are now coming in full-swing and its great to see the cafes and restaurants doing good business again. Yesterday we walked around the old town and "did" our "tourist thing" taking pix and having coffee on the Liston. Always a pleasant thing to do.

Today there's a general strike, so it's a "stay at home and get on with sorting out my computer files" and "make a nice pot of soup as the weather has gotten a bit cooler, too", sort of day.
