People even started to sit outside to smoke, quite a feat, for Turkish people are keenly aware of the dangers of a draft!Sandrinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10229404784641370601noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7778669464916348661.post-40922638439284045192010-09-01T23:46:22.322+03:002010-09-01T23:46:22.322+03:00The difference between Greece and northern Europe ...The difference between Greece and northern Europe is that I believe that the ban will, in time, be largely ignored in most bars and cafeterias.
