It is official, as of today there is a 'no smoking' ban inside the cafeneo in the centre of Vrahassi. If anyone smokes at Yianni's place then he is liable to incur a very heavy fine. This ban goes for all restaurants and cafenea unless they have a special licence to allow smoking - this licence costs a few thousand euro too so Yianni has decided to ban smoking from his shop. It is OK while ever people are sitting outside in the summer air but what will happen in the winter? It will be very interesting to see what happens. Anyway, well done Yianni for trying to stick to the law.Life in a traditional Cretan Village, Greece, written by Jane Sharp. The life and times of Cretan people as observed by an English immigrant.
