Re: Pet proof fly screens
Not a sliding fly screen, but a hinged fly screen for the front doorway. I had this made by the business in Chloraka who make all kinds of aluminum screens,window frames , fly screens etc. I asked for the stronger aluminum mesh infill, which cost extra, but is much stronger than the normal one. So f...

Re: Wipers
These people are a pain! I encountered them in a carpark at Papa’s in Chloraka. He was v persistent and even tried to touch my wipers. I shouted No, then No again. My shouts attracted support from other drivers and I threatened to report him. He left at speed.

Re: Travel insurance for the elderly.
Try Top Quotes, Chlorakas. They arranged my travel insurance. As no doubt you know insurance premiums for senior citizens are loaded specially for travel to USA, but a lot depends on your state of health and any pr- existing health conditions.

Re: COVID RESTRICTIONS
I had an appointment at St George's last week. I rang the specialists secretary to enquire. No test required she said. But they like you to wear a mask. Seems as if different hospitals have different rules.

Re: Biometric Card - 2026
Fishbeardsunset, it sounds as if you, having arrived after the UK's Brexit agreement, have come here under different terms to many of us who have been living here previously ( before Brexit) as EU citizens. If this is so then the subject being talked about on this post may not apply to you.

Re: Biometric Card - 2026
Has anyone noticed that since Brexit, our status as EU citizens is past? We have become 3rd world citizens. Thus every time one needs to go to a Govt office, procedures to upgrade any document have become more complicated? As I do sometimes want to travel to other EU countries its worth keeping up w...

Only just seen your latest post, Devil. I found this latest one really fascinating to read. You must have had great powers of observation as well as an amazing memory. I have been fortunate to have been to most of the places that you wrote about. I first visited Kyrenia in 1968, driving there with a...

Re: NHS cover on visit to UK
Polemi Ian,
I DID initially ask the Citizens service centre about getting this card, the reply was we don't issue these to British Citizens. I was told to apply to the UK.
I resent your other quite un necessary remark.

Re: ETIAS timeline
I think that an MUKW1, like the MEU1 before it, is only supposed to last for 5yrs. What you should do now is to Apply for the MUKW3 - which lasts for 10yrs.... Like you I am not clear whether the MUKW3 will be accepted at all EU borders, once UK residents are required to obtain ETIAS visas. Wonder i...

Re: Tsada/Olympus Village
Even if you don't actually use spell checker, my tablet seems to have a type of predicted text- (which unfortunately I don't know how to disable). This can change a word in a sentence so as to change the meaning which I had intended. Very annoying.

But it is also possible to have problems with immigration and people get sent away because they didn't bring all...
