  4. 'No' signs 'are abundant'published at 10:11

    As a sort of tourist I wait in line for 10-15 minutes to obtain unlimited cash from machines. Locals restricted to 60 euros, or in most cases manage only 40. "OXI" or "No" signs are abundant, however not seen even one "NAI" sign.

  10. 'Countless discussions'published at 09:48

    John Chapman, visiting Greece with his wife, emails:

    The Greek people are as kind and welcoming as ever but they are very worried about what the future holds. The tension has risen as the days have gone by and we have heard countless discussions about whether to vote yes or no in today’s referendum. 

    There is clearly a split between the old and the younger generation and those in business and those that are simply working hard to save for the long winters without tourists such as us.

    I don’t consent with it on many points, but in the end I went for yes. I don’t really know what both answers will mean and to be honest I’m not happy with either, but we have to hope.

    The real question of this referendum is whether Greece will stay in the euro and the eurozone - so of course we are voting 'Yes', it's extremely crucial for our country.

    I am voting 'No' because I can’t take the blackmail anymore and I want to live with dignity. It’s going to be tough for the next two years but eventually it will be better for the future of our children.
