Heard that a couple of tourists managed to park their car upside down on Spartia beach today, near to sunbeds. Seems they came off the road and over the edge of the small 'cliff'. Car occupants transferred to Argostoli hospital, hopefully not seriously injured.

Ach so, the Krauts will shaft their own kind just not as much as the non-Aryan foreigner.  There is a long way to go before the Greeks are treated like the Jews, I suppose?

Australia's war on cats: Government plans to cull 2 million by 2020
Australia's feral cats are reportedly responsible for dwindling numbers among some endangered species

According to Britain's Guardian newspaper, Australia has one of the worst extinction records in the world, losing about 29 native mammal species since the European arrival. It now lists some 1,800 species as under threat.

This is hardly the first time the scourge of feral cats has made national headlines in this part of the world. In 2013, a prominent economist turned environmental activist in New Zealand called for the wholesale eradication of the country's cats, deeming them "natural born killers."

You misunderstand me, Blue.  I think that there are many millions of good Krauts.  All the dead ones.
