Time to come back... OKEY DOKEY KARAOKE style - 7 years ago
Yias Sou everyone. What's new (or not) with Halkidiki then? Is there anybody we might know still living and working there? As people know we left in 2010 to come back to Manchester and raise our 2 girls. We made some TV programmes, got married, expanded the business from just karaoke & disco (we've been performing magic & illusions for the last 5 years), done a few variety shows &amby Mark & Kelly - Halkidiki

Re: Wedding advice needed! - 14 years ago
Hiya Bex My wife & I (Mark & kelly) are an english karaoke/dj duo. We live in Halkidiki every year between May & October. Although we work in several venues for their karaoke nights we are also available for private functions.

Re: england world cup qualifier - 14 years ago
Go to Cafe Classic in Kriopigi. The guys there (Nikos, Yannis & Panos) will look after you & have a laugh...I remember they are liverpool fans so you can either take the mickey or join them, depending on where you're support is for. I'm a Man U fan so they hate me I really cant think why!!!! Also call into Billy's Bar & Kelfos in Hanioti, by far the best bars anywhere there....Youby Mark & Kelly - Halkidiki

Re: *3 bedroom houses wanted for long term rent** - 14 years ago
Hi Jane Yes, we do really need houses in those areas really. We would appreciate contact with & from private owners/landlords only as we have had no joy from the real estate companies. They all want to sell only & are happy for their houses to remain empty for several years rather than rent them out for 5 years upwards in the hope that one day they may sell.
