Greeks talking English

So interesting that in Sweden, although all younger/middle-class/further-educated people speak fluent English, you don't find that with people who serve you coffee in a bus station café and who work the harbour cranes:

but in Greece they do - you can ask just about anyone, and if they don't speak English, they'll drag over someone else who does ... I guess you could call it 'knowing which side your bread is buttered' - without tourism there's not much work for anyone, it seems ...
