Yes you can still get shorts ie; vodka, gin, rum, peach snaps, whiskey. Think the icecream was 1.30pm till 3pm. :cheers

i was out there two weeks ago heard some people had come down with sickness etc and ear infections however our family were not infected and spoke to lots of people and no one i knew were. I used swim ear on the kids which can be bought on the plane if that helps suppose to clean out ears of water after swimming .

I've posted previously however to let you know.

When we went, I suffered terrible stomach pains after a few days, the doctor immediately put me on a drip in the onsite health centre and I stayed there for about 6 hours, the other rooms were also full with people with the same problem. I had to give a sample and apparently it came back clear (cop out imo) and the doc said it was just a holiday bug! Cant fault there treatment though it was first class and I think they didnt want to cause problems for FC by admitting there was a hygiene problem.

My son had suffered on holiday for years with ear problems after going in the pool however our GP at home just said he had a problem with stubborn ear wax and gave him drops, he wouldn't agree to them being syringed. At the Pegasus, he came down with the same problem and the same DR who had treated me, looked in the ear and said the wax needed removing and should have been done ages ago. She put some drops in and asked us to return the day after. When we did, she asked my son to lie still, put some forceps in the ear and quick as a flash, removed the plug that had built up.

Like I said, the treatment was first class, however with so many holidaymakers on one site you are bound to encouter health problems. Just go and enjoy it and try not to worry too much.

Unless it's changed this year, you are given 1 towel card per person which you take to the towel exchnage by the pool to get your pool towel. Just take the towel back at the end of the day to get you card back.

Hi, have you checked out the Holiday Village thread in this forum or looked at the photos in the Pagassos Palace Photo Gallery?

There are several photos of the beach if you follow the above link to the HT Photo Galleries.

Hi

The ten pin bowling alley was just like you would get at home. There was only 4 lanes was approx £4 per person.

You get 1 towel card per person, but we ended up with 8 ?? Don't think the toel boy was very good with his maths :rofl
