It's all change at Roda Oasis, the front of the building is screened off, there are skips outside and lots of building materials, from what I can see it looks like the entire inside has been gutted, the restaurant, bar, reception and kitchen are one huge space, will try to get some photos soon. pete.

Even Kostas & Nikos were there for some time in December, Pete ... we did try to speak to them but they'd gone home for Christmas and all the concrete was wet. Also, Adonis is having a sizeable extension at Drosia, next door where there was previously a shop. There is certainly something happening too at what was Stella's Bar, as Gil reported a little while ago. Spiros, the owner, was there today painting, so maybe we'll get our barber's shop.

Wow! Didn't see that one coming Pete! That would be a major change in the village.

I was a bit shocked myself Kath, it's the last place I'd have imagined being sold. pete.

I'm surprised too, Pete, but then every place is for sale at the right price. When Spiridoula and her brother took over the place, she told me, with some passion, that she was in awe of the ancestor of hers who had the wherewithal to build such a place more than 200 years ago. I cannot think of another such building in the north of Corfu, built around the time that the French were creating the Liston in Corfu Town. Her role at the hospital does leave her very limited time to operate the restaurant, but I would have thought that if anything were going to be sold, it would have been the field between Roda Inn and Big Ben. Maybe it's just the restaurant that is for rent - as with Odysseus/Petrino.

Does Spiridoula own that field Steve? That's where Mike is planning on building us a house when we win the lottery

I believe that Siridoula does own that field Nikki - Yiannis at Big Ben is her cousin I think. I think also, that the field should become a carpark for residents, leaving the seafront to encourage more visitors to stop.

Just been reliably informed by Vangelis that the shop next to Oscas is not after all going to be a Barber shop but a local produce shop olives feta etc etc better than a barber shop as I no longer have a need for one.
