To send us an email directly from the hidden europe homepage, please click here. We can handle incoming correspondence in English, German, French, Danish, Latin and Lallans. Whether we can competently reply in all these languages is quite another matter! * Of course you can call hidden europe any time you wish. We would prefer that you get an alive and alert human being to answer your call, rather than a dull machine. So call weekdays between 9.00 and 18.00 CET if you can. We are on the same time zone as Stockholm, Skopje and Seville! Or, put another way, one hour ahead of Stornoway, Southend and the Scilly Isles (all in the British Isles). And, for those who really want to labour the point, we lag an hour behind Sofia and Sevastopol, and two hours behind Smolensk! |
