Obelix keeps time in Chania bus station

Each morning whilst Claire is waiting for her bus to work, we buy a coffee from the little kiosk inside the bus station - it means we get to practice a tiny bit of conversational Greek as well with the lady who works there. After months though, for the first time the other day, I noticed that behind the cash desk is yet another Obelix in Hania - this time on a clock, advertising the removals business whose Obelix emblazoned van I've already spotted.

At least we've cleared up one reason why we see so many cartoons of Obelix here in Crete. In Greek, a kebab shop is called an Οβελιστηριο (Obelisterio), presumably because the slab of meat the kebabs get shaved from resembles an obelisk. Using the super-strong cartoon Gaul as a visual pun is obviously too much of a temptation for some.
