Can't wait to show this to this to our scaffolders/riggers! The next time they throw a hissy fit about constructing the odd access platform this will remind them how lucky we are over here. Absolutely incredible.

Apparently the (finished) construction is aimed to be a tourist attraction. No way you'd get me up there!

From what I can make out, last Tuesday details were published of a new ruling / law relating to commercial use of the sea shore / beaches. Can't make out anything from the legal lingo but perhaps news will filter down in the weeks ahead.

Christos Gasparatos, head of the Etam and Panem family empires, passed away recently in Athens. Funeral held today in Dilinata.

Greece has denied reports it is preparing to default on its loans if it cannot reach agreement on its bailout terms with international creditors.

A government spokesman said negotiations were proceeding swiftly towards a solution.

But reports suggest the government is rapidly running out of money. It needs to find €2.4bn to pay civil service salaries and pensions this month.

The Greek government has also dismissed media reports that it was considering calling early elections if it failed to negotiate a settlement with its international creditors.

Last week, eurozone officials said Greece only had six working days left to come up with a revised list of reforms to seal a deal on its next rescue bailout.

Greek prime minister Alexis Tsipras has said that Athens will not be able to service its debt without financial help from the European Union.
