Re: Internet

None what so ever. Never experienced any problems, I am within 2km of my local transmitter but I do have friends who are some 15kms away and they have no problems either. It does of course depend on the quality of the equipment the WISP company is using.

Re: AC Unit broken

Approaching 16 year old unit, with dated technology and no doubt Ozone depleting refrigerant which is no longer in use? Time for Steptoe to be called. I have just been through the process of replacing my last 2 older units installed in 2004 with new Haier units which use 75% less electricity than th...

Re: Curved TVs

I have a LG 4k resolution TV here in Cyprus. When viewing for example a YouTube 4k stream it is superb quality.
Some 4K streams available via a Kodi system device will likely have the streaming data upscaled to look like 4K but it ain't really!

Re: Authentic Bavarian Sausage, Consumer verdict?

I cannot believe how relevant this post is... I just had half a pack ( 7 of them after all they are pretty small) with eggs for my breakfast. I Love the little buggers they hands down beat a traditional English Pork banger.

Re: British Empire.... Good or Bad?

I am proud Britain once had an Empire. What happened is History and not the responsibility of the present British people. I get sick and tired of the negative comments about what Britain and Colonisation meant. Was Britain the only country ever to have an Empire or simply colonise a far flung land -...

Re: England vs. Italy Rugby

No flattery at all.
They were outplayed by Italy in the first half. Played them at their own game - overcame the tackle only rule by getting the lumps to drive straight through the uncontested tackle and blitzed the 2nd half with a few more tries than the Italians scored.
No flattery at all.

Re: Why Cyprus?

Used to work in Saudi, needed somewhere within 3 max 4 hrs flight to get away to at weekends and the nearest half decent place to buy a property with cash burning a hole in my pockets was Cyprus. That was almost 14 years ago and still here, now happily on early retirement.

Re: Theft from your baggage

When using a grip or zip sided case in the past I always secured the zip tag/slider to the end of its run with a small cable tie. Stops the inquisitive from taking a little look inside.

Re: Reports show more breakdown of Brexit Voters - and results were in line with educational attainment!

One sentence in the report says it all for me - The level of education had a higher correlation with the voting pattern than any other major demographic measure from the census As Dominic suggested on a different thread, with regard to Trump voting, there may be other factors involved, for example,...

Re: Authentic Bavarian Sausage at Lidl

Bratties, Kartoffelsalat und Senf...ummmm, the mrs went to our local Lidl this afternoon and got the last 5 packs they had. These are just baby brattier though and there are 14 to the pack so just enough for a man snack at lunchtime.
