Greek father and huge family in Athens although originally from Crete. Although I mainly grew up in the UK, Easter with granny Danae in Athens was compulsary! My parents are now spending more and more time in Greece and have just bought a house in Syros so my dad can commute to Athens for work. He is a journalist for a Greek newspaper and foreign correspondant for BBC World Service although semi retired.
is celebrated at different times of the year, depending where you come from and in the Uk it's aways the fourth Sunday of Lent, exacty 3 weeks before Easter Sunday.
O.K., I was just playing the mean guy before! I didn't know you had Greek family jasminejasmine! My mom is Greek, but I think you’ll agree with me that in Greece Mother’s day is not celebrated very strongly and that other occasions are deemed to be more important (birthdays, namedays, Xmas & Easter holidays, Shrove Monday, 15th August etc.).
No you are not mean, flowers always go up on Mothers day. I was just abut to press pay when I noticed the website you put on. Will open up another tab & try that one.
Goodluck with the flowers, Interflora charge almost double today! I used a company called bunches.co.uk, the flowers were under 20 pounds delivered and really nice. (I sound really mean now, saying how cheap they were!) but house price crash is taking all my money
