Dominic, my wife and I have recently come across this video and it was extremely interesting. After twelve years in Argaka we are moving to Neo Chorio at the end of the month. Your trip through the village enabled us to notice things that we hadn’t been able to focus on (driving through the narrow s...

Up here in the Polis region, people are moving mountains to give support and aid to the victims of the dreadful fires. There are collection points everywhere and the donations are staggering. I hope that the same thing is happening across the Paphos region, and will be supported by forum members and...

We are moving from Argaka at the end of August to another village in the area.

Changing addresses - there are some obvious ones, both here and in the UK.

But we would welcome suggestions for those we might overlook.

Please feel free to suggest the obvious and the not so obvious.

My wife is looking for a good dental technician in Paphos. Recommendations welcome.

“Don’t touch this one with a barge pole” via PM please.

If you have Apple products (iPads and iPhones) that need repair, they sometimes need specialist care. My iPad, a few months out of warranty, developed a problem. I contacted https://www.prismastore.cy (from whom I bought it) and it was couriered to Nicosia. The next day they telephoned and a technic...

Was it The Royal Artemis by any chance?

I recently went to the one near Toy Box off the dual carriageway They fitted me in within half an hour after a call from my gp That I think is George Vorkas whom I first contacted. I might ask my Personal Doctor to see if she can get me an earlier appointment. No it’s not, it’s off the dual carriag...

That I think is George Vorkas whom I first contacted. I might ask my Personal Doctor to see if she can get me an earlier appointment.

I normally use George Vorkas for ultrasound scans but, when I telephoned this morning, their first available appointment was a month away. Any suggestions for a quicker GESY appointment in Paphos? Evangelismos gave the equivalent of not being really bothered as they were so busy.

My wife, who is running the new market, has asked me to clarify a few points. There is no charge to stall holders but they are invited to make a donation to the Friends’ Hospice, Paphos. Refreshments will be available at Santa Barbara from 09.00 and their kitchen will be open from midday. Please fee...

Our daughter booked an EasyJet flight months ago to fly from Gatwick to Paphos on holiday at the beginning of April. It was meant to arrive in the early afternoon. Some weeks ago she was informed it would arrive at nine o’clock in the evening. And this weekend she has been informed it will arrive at...

My Personal Doctor told me that the limit for visits does not apply to people with a chronic condition.

My wife and I were at Paphos General yesterday so that she could see her neurologist. Appointments were running late (mainly because the neurologist takes as much time as necessary with each patient). My wife was called and a young Cypriots man exploded with rage. He was shouting and tried to push p...

I would be astonished if an income like that could not sustain a comfortable lifestyle. Our pension income is about €3500 a month, and we live like kings and we generally save about €600 a month. We are covered by GESY which means no expensive health insurance, which makes a difference.

Someone on another social media platform suggested I buy from Amazon UK, as Amazon DE did not have what I was looking for. I have not used Amazon UK since Brexit. She told me that Amazon UK automatically charge Cyprus VAT at checkout, and that there are no import charges if the item costs less than ...

I would like to start collecting my favourite films in the blue ray format. Is there a shop in Cyprus which will deliver?

I only listen to Rock FM in the car and, this morning, was surprised to hear the presenter speaking only in Greek, and playing non-English music. Has the station been bought?
