vwkittie Posted May 5, 2010 Share Posted May 5, 2010 My friends have just come back from their Honeymoon in Greece and had a great time I heard on the radio, this morning I think it was, that there are airport strikes going on now though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
truconstruct Posted May 5, 2010 Share Posted May 5, 2010 What, Greek Bankers? Hope so, at least that could be some consolation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kingmaker2 Posted May 5, 2010 Share Posted May 5, 2010 3 people are reported to have been killed after protestors set fire to a bank in Athens. Sadly Athens is burning quite literally. I can't help feel that those 3 people have died needlessly since the government of Greece has no choice but to take harsh economic measures other wise Germany won't bail them out. Let's hope Portugal doesn't go the same way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kingmaker2 Posted May 5, 2010 Share Posted May 5, 2010 In answer to the original question, Is a holiday to Greece a good idea right now? Given the current situation, with Athens literally burning and people dieing It's a definite "NO". Whilst the Greeks won't turn away your money, at the same time you can't be too sure how the "man in the street" will react to seeing tourists enjoying themselves in their country whilst their capital burns.
