Philhellene

As the Olympics loom, so my excitement mounts over the sheer will-they-won't-they? drama of having the city in a fit state to actually hold the plonking knees-up.

Patriotism: Speaking of knees-ups, I reach for the ouzo just thinking of yon Spiros or Theodoros at the business end of a Patriot.

Dept of Plus ça change: I wondered when word would leak out on the price gouging.

PS: To show no hard feelings against Johnny Greek, check out this even grimmer tale of the frog auteur to whose book signing no one came ... ugh.
