Hello Steve,Jeff and all friends of Fourka,
Last night was the opening of the new Jimmy's bar in fourka. It is what was the Australia restaurant and Jim has done a great job, the new bar looks out on to the beach with a patio for the summer and a snack bar area for food. we are all looking forward to some great night's this year just like the old days. Still getting over my hangover so bye for now, hope to see you all in summer.
Buster Fourka

hi buster. thats good news. its a shame the resturant closed when you see how well thomas done last year because he is on the beach. jimmy only needed a good chef ..with thassos thats 4 bars next door to each other. good luck to them all. were are all the english going to come from. yiammas. annxxx

Hi Ann,
Tassos wont be open this year, Jimmy will be covering the area Tassos had plus the pool bar. I think Fourka has too many restaurants for thew amount of people for such a short season and with the Julia being all inclusive they never leave the hotel. The new bar is really big and well done out you will enjoy it if you are out this year and you are right we need more British back. Had a drink with Thomas yesterday, he is open again at weekends now.
Yiasou Buster xx

hello buster,i hope jimmy will do well- but as fourka seem`s to be pulling out all the stop`s for the east european`s i don`t see any of the bar`s doing any good at all. i witnessed jimmy`s rep going round the bar`s and restuarant`s last year trying to cut deal`s for his guest`s from the east,he himself done a cheap meal and a glass of wine at a very cheap rate,if this kind of effort was there a few year`s ago for the english then then maybe we would all be there again this year.over the past few year`s the place the english would alway`s flock to was tassos`s and his wonderful family at his beach bar,now that`s gone the english have gone and after five year`s were of to turkey
good luck fourka i hope you look after are friend`s from the east better than you looked after the brit`s

Yasou from ENGLAND

Hi jeff,
Nikos has not been in the Yiamas for over a year, it was run by russians last summer,but the resort is full of them. I will try and find out where he is and get your message to him though.

All the best buster

Hi all,

Wonderful memories of the last 12 years in Fourka and all the friends we have made along the way, Greek and English; we could not have wished for better holidays or company. Agree with jimbo re last year,even in August it was quiet,the guests from the east do not eat or drink out,their coach stops at Lidels near Afitos,on the way,yes the beds are full but the restaurants and bars are empty.We also have sadly decided to try pastures new,but will miss Fourka and our friends this year. So many familiar faces have moved on over the past couple of years to work eleswhere and to hear Tasos,Soula and the kids won't be there this year is very very sad.
Yiasou Bev Kev and Sam xx

Hi Buster

Well Mate you do surprise me about Nikos no wonder ive not heard from him .
i think he saw what was coming with fourka and got out just in time
Maybe hes opened somewhere in Seloniki or hes just given up and staying home with his new wife
would appriciate it if you could find his Seloniki address cos i still owe him for the help he gave me over the years ive known him
If you cant get a address then im stuck because ide never find my wifes resting place in the mountains without Nikos he knows exactly were it is lol.
Is the aristidis still alive?????
i hear the Iris has closed along with Brownstones.
take care and will chat soon>

Hi Buster,

Why won't Tasos and Soula be open this year? Regards to Jimmy,Stella,(hope they are both well),Maria and young Billy. Also Yiannis(Litsa),Magda,Dimitris,big kiss for Vasilis, and Thomas should you see them. Sods law our pastures new after 12 years in Fourka and 20years in Greece lead us to book Mexico !!!!!!!!!
