Because it interworks with scholars. That's why it is allocated a Solar on Saturdays.

(08 Apr 2014, 8:52 pm)Racer_Experience thought Nikos Dabizas was a former Newcastle United player who was then transfered to Leicester City but i can easy pronounce your name easily its my sisters lads name i still cannot pronounce i have difficulty with the name
So was George Gorgeadis.
The economy in Greece caused a few problems, hence them diversifying and finding employment sticking labels on olive oil bottles and milking goats.
Prince Phillip seems to have a few bob still like.
(08 Apr 2014, 8:53 pm)busman101 My chances of spelling your surname right are very remote & I can cope much better with 1 !!!
I once paid for some fencing for the garden thanks to a Nikos Dabizas goal I had a bet on - very good it was too
Citaro5284 didn't like it, when I missed the numbers off his name once and obviously Bazza, likes being called Bazza - some peoples usernames are obviously important.
Just call me Andreos C.
Was it the goal versus Sunderland?
Sure there will be a joke in there about Dabizas giving you de (best) fence in the village....
Maybe not.
Lesbos has an excellent bus network, operated by KTEL by the way.

(08 Apr 2014, 8:42 pm)Andreos Constantopolous Nikos Dabizas works on the Olive plantation and George Georgiadis has a job in our Feta cheese plant.
Have you not got Niko Papavasiliou on the payroll yet?
EDIT: Sorry, just remembered, he's Cypriot not Greek isn't he?
D'oh

We did take him on, but after a promising start - he flattered to deceive and ended up leaving after a few months.

The X3 should be extended to Athens
RE: Go North East - Latest - MurdnunoC - 09 Apr 2014
(09 Apr 2014, 10:38 am)gtom The X3 should be extended to Athens
But how would that work with existing interworking arrangements with scholar services during the week?
On Saturdays, how would the Solars cope with excessive Mediterranean humidity?
Plus, knowing GNE, they're bound to curtail the service in a few months time to operate between Kosovo and Pilgrim Street only thereby missing out the vital shopping link through Macedonia and into Athens.
RE: Go North East - Latest - GuyParkRoyal - 09 Apr 2014
Just been on 6064 and it has no WiFi signal and when I think about it the last few times on 6064 have been the same. Could the lack of working WiFi on 6064 be the reason that it is the only Angel Hybrid with no free WiFi notice on the front upper window.
Has anyone actually had working WiFi on 6064 recently?
RE: Go North East - Latest - Jimmi - 09 Apr 2014
Saw an advert promoting "The Angel" on a bus stop in Birtley today.
RE: Go North East - Latest - Dan - 09 Apr 2014
Has anyone noted 4840's new registration yet (R112 SBD)?
The vehicle didn't carry that registration when it was first allocated a few weeks ago as I saw it carrying 340GUP when first transferred to Hexham - not sure if anyone has seen it more recently?

Nah, she doesn't have the physique and her glasses cause the sheep to have nightmares.
How about the ad122, rather than the x3.
Sure the Romans left a mark in Greece too, with one or two historic monuments.
Not sure an MPD should be used though...

The buzzfare boundaries will be conveniently located between key locations. Dread to think how many zones they will fit in between Belgrade and Sarajevo or Bucharest and Cluj.

It's just The Chronicle website in general. I've got AdBlock+ on so haven't seen it myself, but clearly that's how it appears on iPhones.
