New Series Recommendation - One to watch.....

The Gentlemen by Guy Ritchie. Came out few days ago on Netflix.

Be warned though, it's typical Guy Ritchie. More than a little violent in parts.......

Re: Around Pissouri

We've just returned from our weekly trip to Pissouri where we either walk along the seafront at Pissouri Bay, or up in the hills near the hillside village. Today we walked along a track to the seafront and turned left to explore the abandoned house at the far end of the beach (just back from the nud...

Thanks for your replies. We've been here 20 years and, thankfully, have had no problems with getting our residency documents.

This is news to us and we have already applied for our card anyway, As far as we are aware the change in 2026 will be that it will be co...

Lodging of Wills with the Court

Several years ago we had codicils included in our Wills to the effect that we wished them to be governed by the law of our nationality which is English law. This was on the advice of our lawyer, who is not the executor. Since then we have stored our Wills safely at home but have now decided to lodge...

Re: King-size electric under blanket?

We had the same problem. Our old electric blanket had dual controls and one of them started to have intermittent problems. We searched for quite a while for a replacement, locally and on line. We popped into Premier Electrical and they had king sized blankets on sale for around €65. It has dual cont...

Recommendations for someone to replace wooden fence

Our current wooden fence is almost 20 years old and needs replacing. It has been repaired and repainted over the years but has really come to the end of its life.

Recommendations for someone to take away the old fence, and replace with a new one would be gratefully received.

Thanks

Re: Where to go for Brunch

Trevhil, could you give us some feedback on Omikron please. We have passed by several times and it always appears to be full so it's probably very popular. Thanks

Re: MUKW3

The requirements to change from an MEU1 to an MUKW3 are, I believe, the same as were originally in place for a move from MEU1 to MEU3 (i.e. 5 yrs proof of residency, bills etc.). The move from an MEU3 to an MUKW3 only, I believe, only require a completed application form and the original with copies...

Re: Paphos Municipality initiates water supply disconnects for unpaid bills

They remove the meter and seal the supply pipe. To take water from the supply pipe after this constitutes theft. If the premises seems occupied they will check from time to time that the supply pipe seal has not been tampered with.

Request from Hellenic Bank to validate personal details

Has anyone else received fairly regular requests by email from, supposedly Hellenic Bank, asking us to validate our personal details? We've assumed it's a scam and have deleted them, but just thought I'd ask as we've received two this week.

Thanks
