RE: And coffee is paid for, isn't it? (in a city choked with cars)
You are viewing a single comment's thread:
English names are a Greek phenomenon, too, that started in the 80's. It doesn't have anything to do with communism, but with the hordes of tourists that started coming. It's true that most people couldn't even pronounce them...
Now the trend is ancient greek names in latin characters :)
A Bitcoin ATM is installed inside a pawn shop. It doesn't look good at all!
Haha! I thought it was a shifty club or something. They all have the same ugly look!
You are the kindest couple!!! Happy coffees in 2022!

Thank you! We hope to drink as many coffees as possible next year.
This one I think looks better, at least for tourists who don't know the Greek alphabet (I don't know all the letters either).
I hope you two have a quiet and peaceful passage to 2022, here in the city it seems like everyone goes crazy at midnight, only fireworks and banging stuff. The last dog I had, a very gentle pitbull, was terrified of this night. He'd hide under the bed and wouldn't come out until morning...
Once again, Happy New Year!
Oh yes, the greek names are way better, but it is funny if you want to eat in a restaurant, especially in a touristic area, and you look around you have all the greek mythology in front of you, even names you haven't heard before :)
Our previous dog had the same problem... With thunders, too. Pitbulls are so gentle, they are amazing with kids!
This guy, Markos, is a hunting dog and all these like-a-gunshot sounds don't touch him... Very (pleasantly) weird when you are used to a different situation for so many years :)
Greek mythology is fabulous, so it doesn't hurt to remember.
I thought Marcos was a Labrador, I had a very good labrador myself, he was crazy about water and swimming.
(I missed this comment, so I am really sorry for the delayed reply!)
He is mixed, I wonder how many breeds lead to this result! The vet told us that he has some Labrador, maybe 10-15%. I was sure that it would have been more because he really looked like a Labrador especially as a puppy. But he is only 20-22 kilos. Funny thing is that many people when they see him think that he is a Labrador puppy, although he is 4 years old, so he gets extra strokes!
Markos never swims in the sea and hates baths, the biggest evidence of small percentage of this breed in his blood :)
Yes, Greek mythology is fabulous, I totally agree!!! As for the names, you made me think that maybe I am a bit weird, I will check this option :)
