Here's what happened on the ground in Greece during the frantic week before its crucial referendum

Greece goes to the polls on Sunday. A "Yes" vote means approving the bailout deal offered by the country's European creditors - though it's not even clear that's still on offer since Greece's existing assistance programme ended on June 30.
A "No" vote means turning it down. The government says that would help them in negotiations, but the opposition says it would effectively confirm Greece's exit from the euro, a so-called Grexit.
The country has been in a strange state for the last week. Much of the country's normal activity goes on, but there are ATM queues in the background, along with increasingly divided campaigns for and against the bailout, and tension on all sides about what's coming next.
