Welcome to the oikos of Demetrios Xanthippos of the deme Skambonidai and one time student of Sokrates. Most likely I’m not in, but feel free to drop in and take a look around. We’re a bit understaffed these days, but help yourself to a handful of olives (I particularly recommend the ones stuffed with garlic) and a cup of Khian. Just remember the words of the god, “Nothing too much.”
If I’m not in you can look for me in the agora or elsewhere around the city, but if you can’t find me go ahead and leave a message here on the door. I’ll get back to you just as soon as I can.
If it is a more confidential matter, you can try sending a message with Skylas here.
But if you do, make sure to put your name in the message. He isn’t terribly smart and tends to forget things like just who it was who gave him messages.
Δημητριος
