hi fion and gill, Happy packing, your lucky to be so organised, I still need to buy so much. This weather really getting me in the holiday spirit. 16 sleeps to go.

3 weeks on Thursday to go!!!!!!!!! Think Im organised. Ive decided this time Im not going to take half as much as last time. The girls returned with a big case full of clean clothes!!!!!!!! Easier said than done with two girls who think they have to have matching bag, jewellery, belts and 2 changes of clothes every day!!

All my Avon arrived last night I think we have every Skin so soft product going I may set a stall up. No wonder mozzies and wasps dont like it it smells like fly spray.!!!!!!!!!! (Apparently its really good we will see - So you will smell us before you see us!!!)

What is this avon spray? the dry oil spray ? please let me know im looking on their website now

I was out there from 1st to 8th did you enjoy the thunderstorm the night before we left.

I thought the HPS Reps were pretty good with the arrangements i:e water polo and volleyball.

My 2 kids loved the kids club.

There were ladies at the bar one of which seemed very nice indeed!!!!

The Vodkas were very strong.

fiona, skin so soft original dry oil spray, apparantly is brilliant. I bought the bubble bath soap body wash etc.Heard it keeps the mozzies away a treat.

Any particular fragrance ?

Yes must be original woodland fresh. the one they have made for years.

Hi girls

Its soft & fresh. Any 2 for £4 on offer at the moment. It is the Woodland fresh Dianne but renamed. Im going to order some more. Not sure if its coincidence I squirted some on and a wasp flew away from me! If anybody wants any who's there 6th - 13th I will order some from the Avon lady and bring it. Ive got the body lotion and shower gel too.

can find skin so soft but not soft&fresh

Just remembered something. On your journey home make sure that none of your baggage weighs over 20kg for suitcases and 5kg for hand luggage. Thessaloniki airport charges 8 Euros for every kilo over. They are very strict about this.
Also we had my daughters birthday whilst out there, and a word with the restaurant manager produced a reserved table, cake, candles and Happy Birthday music.Lovely.

Sorry I havent explained myself properly it is skin so soft but the fragrance of it is called soft and fresh.

R Crusoe, what was the childrens play area like? Also bouncey castle? Do they have a childrens pool or just a childrens section of the pool? Was the shop well stocked, or was it just crisps cigarettes etc?

Hi Dianne.
Didn't really have much to do with the kids side of things as my "child" is 16....but there were always lots of children using the play areas and didn't hear of any accidents.....the bouncy castle looked great....its nice and big....but I heard that it got very hot to the touch so really young children need to be supervised I would say. Both of the pools had childrens areas but they were on the small side. The main pool was shallow enough at one end for a 6 year old to stand up quite safely.
The shop is on the small side, selling water, biscuits, ciggies, very small selection of alcohol newspapers, mags, soft drinks, inflatables, sun hats sun cream insect repellents, buckets and spades, sweets and chocolate.

Thanks r crusoe, The childrens play sounds great. How did your 16 year old get on? we have 15 yr old daughter as well as 6 yr old. Do you think she will be quite bored.? She is a bit of a sun worshipper and lazing about listening to music is just her thing. Its the evenings, doesent sound like there will be much for her to do.

Dianne. The childrens play area is pretty basic i.e. Swings climbing frame but seemed to get plenty of use. The Bouncey Castle seemed a big hit with my 2. There is a supervisor there when is is open which is from 10:30 to 12:30. and then 16:30 through to 20:30.

My daughter was madly in love with one of the waiters, so dreamed and drooled over him for the fortnight. Theres not much for them to do at night, the disco is for much younger children. There were a couple of girls just a bit younger than her there, but most children are of the younger variety

Ah. I bet I know which one it was. The dark skinned guy with gelled back hair. I think most of the ladies took a fancy to him.

Wow this holiday is sounding better by the minute!!
