What a great shame and waste to let such wonderful infa structure go to waste ! Greek Corrupt Politics be ashamed - only when you realise that you have something of value do you try to use it - there are many families need rehousing - a local hospital needed - entertainment for the culture deprived locals - twenty years of decay .......
We wasn't there long,so didn't realise how big it was !!!!,maybe someone will remember us,myself on lead guitar n vocals,Ed on bass,jackie vocals,phil keys and Jamie drums,Jamie left,and phil moved to drums,and we got Lloyd in for the next visit
i live in base now ! and i have to tell you that i am so sorry for the destyed buildings , that some people have destoyed them ! you did a wonderfull work and i want to thank you for this video because i finally can see how base was when you lived here! we were from the firsts that came here after you in 1996! i want to thank you again for the little paradise you built and me and all my friends had the opportunity to live in a place that all kids dream to live and grow up in ! :)
yes for now belongs in us but soon or late they are going to sale Base in rich businessmen so our Greek goverment is going to take some money ! But their are not going to sale the residential area where we live there you now I mean the area that houses are built !
yes it is greek military now and in the housing area only 2 neighbourhoods are not residential and that, beacause when you left from here about 2 years base was uninhabited so as you can understand some of the houses were destoyed by some really stupid people and in these 2 neighbourhoods houses cause problems that needs a lot of money to fix the damages so in the future if our goverment find and give us the money we need we propably make these two naighbourhoods as you left them!
