The Economic Crisis in Greece and Problems at Work

I know it's been quite some time now I haven't been around much but to be honest, problems at work are responsible for my long absence in blogging. As you may know, the economy in Greece was going from bad to worse and resulted in a serious economic crisis. When the global financial crisis struck, Greece was badly prepared. Hosting the expensive Olympic Games  in 2004 and failing to rein in its spiralling public debt, Greece is now in financial trouble. Help seems to be on the way in the form of a eurozone bailout and hopefully this will save Greece from total economic disaster.

However, many businesses including mine are severely affected and are threatened with bankruptcy. Neither the new Prime Minister nor the European Union will save my business. Only me. And I haven't fired anyone yet under the excuse of redundancy. As the Captain , I need to work 20 hours a day in order to steer my ship off "reefs". I also need to travel a lot for that all over Europe, so there's hardly any time left for blogging and commenting right now. My friend  Anastasia and my contributor on this blog will be replacing me in the next few weeks to come. She has her own blogs - three or four, I think - and a very limited free time, yet she didn't hesitate to tell me : "I'll make time for My Blog".  And I want to thank her from the bottom of my heart.
