Yuk Harold is that not disgusting or what?

We can only  hope that he has such few customers that he p's off somewhere else. :!:

:idea: Lets make a point of warning all new members and directing them to your post just to make sure they are all forewarned.

Thanks for the warning.  Can the Police not do anything about this creep, I can't believe he is getting away with it again. If he tries anything like this around us he won't need to relieve himself ever again. :twisted:

This guy seems to be a bit of pest. ( Under statement ! ) I have Read back last years warnings about him. In August , a Taverna owner stated that he had been arrested a few times but continued as normal.
( See " Beware the Donut Man" for newcomers to the site. )
The only way to stop him is not to buy his "wares" which, sadly , I do not think will happen. And if he speaks no English how do you go about telling him you have been overcharged etc? It also reflects badly on anyone else who is making an honest summer living. Shame really as no-one wants to return from their holiday with this as one of the main memories.

Use your "Pimsleur" on him and get it sorted. - Remember "Allo Allo" on the box?
- "I was just passing by your Donuts and saw your price etc" -
Don't forget the word "passing" is a tricky one in Greek!!

HEY PEOPLE!!!! (i wrote the same message on the other donutman post thingy by the way)
I know you people posted this ages ago, but i thought i'd make a reply anyway because what i have to say needs saying!
He goes to the toilet on the side of the beach and does not, i repeat, does not wash his hands!!! Then hands out "fresh" donuts and other "goodies" to people. How disgusting is that!!!
Aside from the fact that he's disgustig, his prices are ridiculous and all the money he is getting is black money!!! He doesn't pay taxes(obviously)...so how annoying is that!
The Greeks all hate him, as i was warned about him by a lot of my greek friends!
Gota shoot anyway!
Sarah xXx  
p.s.i love arillas ha!!!

Hi Harold. Nice to see you again. Disgusting, isn`t he? Turns my stomach.

Post by: garythebike on May 21, 2008, 09:54:44 AM
What would happen if someone hit this guy , Would there be trouble with police or locals ? I'm not refering to myself but my wife who's Irish with the temper to match and if this character comes near our young son with his tackle out he'll likely be going home less of a man than when he arrived . This is a serious concern as we're going to be there in 3 weeks !

What about learning a few Greek phrases... no one else might understand it but he certainly would!  Like I am calling the police... mind you by the time they got there he would have long gone in his mercedes!  I think taking his photo all the time seems a good one though, he doesnt seem to like that!

Hi Harold, Pete and I didnt see him ourselves but I know how upset myour sister in law was. Glad it didnt spoil her first visit to Arillas and pleased you all got home safely. Viv & Pete

Gary as much as it makes you want to hit him,DONT it will only get you into trouble,photos maybe the answer as Bgirl says.

I shall advise my wife accordingly .Using a camera sounds a good idea , maybe i can get some good pics of my wife beating the bejaysus out of him. (probably not what you meant by camera use).

We saw him each time we visited the beach last week, just told him NO THANKSfirmly, he was soon on his way.
Title: Re: DoNut Man
Post by: vivian on May 25, 2008, 11:28:11 AM
We never had trouble getting rid of him but I will never forget the year that Dimitris set me a mission. We had to buy a donut from him to accumplash it, it really went against the grain. Anyway we got him on tape and camera, he even had a conversation with us, he is so big headed that when we told him our friend at home was missing hearing his voice he did his silly call for us let us record him and get as many photo's as we wanted. All the time I wanted to laugh and just tell him to bu--er of. The things you do for a dare. LOL. Viv

We are so obsessed with this man.

Arillas is bigger, better and lovelier than all of this. Let's just stop talking about him!!!

My last ever post on the subject.

He has got to be the "most famous" conman ever, he's even on Youtube!  He probably knows and is luvvving it and thats why he does what he does.

A little well aimed "DEEP HEAT" spray may prevent a repeat performance! Even british legislation about public urination is archaic, I can't imagine Corfiot police worrying too much about a tourist issuing this kind of summary justice in the circumstances! Especially if he does it in front of kids!

Post by: Paul C on June 10, 2008, 07:32:05 PM
He has raised his head again.
As Phil said, why are we all so obsessed with the man. All we do is just ignore him, if that's not hint enough then he does understand the universal language for GO AWAY.

Didn't encounter the donut man last week BUT I did see the woman who someone else mentioned on here a while ago. She ventured right to my end of the beach and had a basket on her head.....not sure what she was selling but there didn't seem to be much in there and it looked as if it was covered with a white handkerchief.....the mind boggles!
Title: Re: DoNut Man
Post by: vivian on July 04, 2008, 03:52:15 PM
Not much in the basket at one timeSandy as she seems to be scared of making to many at a time and them not being fresh, now you could'nt get more of an contrast to the D M then that could you. lol Viv
Title: Re: DoNut Man
Post by: angiem on July 04, 2008, 04:00:14 PM
So what is she selling??
Title: Re: DoNut Man
Post by: vivian on July 04, 2008, 04:40:41 PM
I tought it was been spowt sandwiches when she first asked if we wanted spowt sandwich but Harold bought one and it turned out to be musterd and cress in mayo on nice fresh brown bread and cost 3 euros. see the spowt lady on G.I. page 2. Viv
