What about in the hotels? and in local shops? I dont think my hotel is close to any clubs so it dont matter about that! Just aslong as i can get sloshed in the hotel with the misses!

My children were allowed to have a drink with their meal when they were under 18.
It was after a 'Greek night' that my son (then 15) had his first hangover. (He had been sat with a group of lads from our apartment block and they had encouraged him drink too much of the free wine!).

Not sure how old you have to be to buy in a bar of shop.

Sone web links that will be of no use whatsover, because they all contradict each other. But hey I am always happy to help! :lol: Seriously though most of the links I found seem to come down on 18 as being the legal age.

PLEASE NOTE THE FIRST LINK IS A PDF!! I know some people can have problems with PDF links.
