Just received tickets!!!!!

Just received my e-tickets from Thomson this evening.  Only 36 days until my first visit to Arillas - really looking forward to it. Can anyone tell me how much is a bottle of ouzo and mataxa at the local supermarkets - an aperitif is calling.....

Prices for bottles in the village will be premium Nora. That said I think ouzo is cheap everywhere. We always try and arrange our vodka supply to come from further away but when we fail our Perry from the Coconut always rescues us. But to be honest, the difference is peanuts.

If this is your first time, don't judge your first impressions. Arillas is much more sophisticated than it looks. Bit like me really... Just be friendly and within a week you will make more friends than you have done since school. It is laid back, but vibrant. And has the inner beauty of a lady who foregoes makeup and relies on being herself.

Have a great time and tell us all about it, warts and all.

Thanks Phil.
I'm sure i'll love Arillas  - the less sophisticated the better in my book.
Will definately report back on our return as I have enjoyed so many of the holiday reports on here - i'd like to return the favour.
Best wishes
