Hi all
We will be arriving in 5 weeks and my daughter has asked me to ask if you can get Menthol Cigarettes in the shops there or should she get them at the airport?
Thanks

Crikey mum, a four year old already fussy about her fags? I used to be just grateful to pick up decent sized dog ends!
Sorry, I gave up before my recent conversion to Skiathos, so I'll leave accurate answers to others. But I feel sure she will find them there.
Please remember to make entries in the feedback forum during or after your holiday. We love reading others experiences - apart from the smoking situation, we have to hear how the four year old gets on.
Remember, there are two benefits provided by feedback. First even the most obscure and minor detail will be gratefully received by somebody. Second, one or more evenings next autumn and winter you will be able to banish the drizzle and cold by reading your own happy memories.

My friend, who is now an ex-smoker, used to smoke Lambert & Butler Menthol & always struggled to get them in Skiathos & resorted to buying a Greek brand!!

Hi natsmum, I am in Skiathos at moment. Not sure if you are here or whether you arrive in a few days but I may take a trip into town today and will enquire at the kiosks for you.

Hi batsman, the kiosk on the new harbour outside the Alpha Bank, sells English menthol cigarettes - superkings and richmond. With you back to the terminus it is the third one along, early opposite the ferry port and a few yards from papadiamantis street.

I think that's the kiosk run by Elizabeth's daughter, Amy.

You are quite correct Dennis, both Jenny and her brother Takis run it between them. I only learned of this yesterday from Elizabeth herself when I made enquiries for natsmum.

I think most people on Skiathos are related to each other. I discovered this when talking to a barman who asked where I was staying. When I told him he said "Oh, that's my wife's auntie". The supermarket was owned by a cousin as was a nearby restaurant. It certainly is a small world. Bob
