Re: Advert appearing on my post.

These ads are popping up all the time, it's annoying but it seems I am unable to stop them.

The current one is for 350 + Exercise Books!

Re: Lloyd, Happy in Cyprus and Yak Flyer

Always sad to hear of the loss of an old CL and PL member.

Lloyd and I often clashed, but debate was always lively, he has been missed on PL.

Condolences to his family.

Re: Will King Charles be forced to Dismiss PM, Sir Kier Starmer?

Clive, Sorry for the late reply, but I have only just seen your post. As Dominic rightly says, Labour won the election, and I fully accept the election result.

Re: Paphos to Polis (Stroumbi) Motorway

Don't know how true it is Trevor, but when we lived there, Cyprus joined the EU, it was then said, that when they started work on improving a road, they got cash from the EU, so, they started work to get the money, then moved on to start work on another, leaving the first road unfinished. Maybe that...

Re: medical for renewing a driving licence

This made me chuckle re eye tests.

MOH and I went to the traffic department in Paphos, for him to renew his licence. The guy at the desk said to MOH, can you read the number plate of the car outside the window? MOH said, yes, that was it, one licence renewed!

Sorry Dominic, I'm confused now.

Did you lose pets in the UK, Cyprus or both?

Re: Happy St George's Day

No Dominic, that's one problem with the English, a lot of us seem reluctant to call themselves English. The Scots, Welsh, Irish all call themselves that, but the English, sadly British.

Time for a change I think.

Re: Sea You Beach Bar Update

Is this the place that used to do amazing cocktails?

I went to a beach bar a couple of years ago, that did wonderful cocktails, but unsure of the name. That was an afternoon to remember :D

Re: What a nice article in CM today.....

A good few years ago, I lost my handbag from a boat in the blue lagoon. I didn't know that I had lost it, until I came to get off the boat at Latsi. I went to the police kiosk on the harbour, and they told me that my bag was at Polis police station, a fisherman had seen my bag, got it out of the sea...
