I don't pay the Pylos guy anything. He's just a con artist. The Spatahori guy says "it's my job". But he does insist you do it his way! I used to over-pay to use the shower in Katakolon - but he did rescue a crew member who fell in when walking the plank. It's not easy to judge the number of fags to give some of the bureaucrats in Tunisia . . . not enough means a very long wait.

Hi,

Get an idea of the time he spent with you. 30 euros per hour is very good. 50 euros per hour servicing you is extremely good!

Regards, Vladis

Re: Volos -- unofficial dock manager -

thanks to all

he did a bit more than expected - and found people who could do the job

we gave him 100euro --

by the way we then got kicked off the dock there. more on Volos later but a very unfriendly town - kicked the dust off our shoes and left

but the guy was great and we did spend some time with him later - he just got a college degree and came back to live with parents while looking for a job - and all he wants to do is leave the town too -
it is probably the most unfriendly town we have ever been to
