Do what Max used to do, and ask the Customer Services desk at Lidl.

Mind you the weather is a bit shit at the moment...

Fingers crossed it is working again now, thanks to good old WD40!

Easter is once more upon us, and in the run-up to Cap St Georges are putting on an Easter Village at Agios Georgios, Peyia. It opened today so we went down to see what was in store for you.

Join Alex and I as we drive from Paphos to Coral Bay along the Coast Road. From Kings Avenue Mall we head out through Chloraka and Lemba. We take a slight diversion at Kissonerga to see if the Cynthiana Beach Hotel is open (according to their website they are now, by the way) before driving through ...
