Re: Money transfer.Should i be worried?
I assume we are talking about Currency Fair! Below, I have copied & pasted an email they sent me on 23 April regarding changes to their procedures and what to do if things go wrong: "Our bank details are changing on April 23rd. From this date, you must use new bank details when sending fund...

Re: Currencyfair
An update on transfers using Currency Fair. I set up one this morning to my Cyprus account and it went through without a hitch with the money arriving this afternoon.

Re: Blood tests
True, but in the UK the standard prescription cost is now £9.00 per item …………… I know which system I would rather be in!

As I said "other members don't share your view" whether you like it or not is up to you?

Re: Blood tests
Sounds similar to the medicines available, if you are happy with the normal one then you pay the standard rate but if you want a specific one then you pay the difference?

Re: Whose jets?!!
Saw them yesterday briefly but the wing shape makes them one of 2! Either RAF Typhoons or French Rafale M launched from the AC Charles de Gaulle, both have a canard delta wing shape!

Re: Petition to revoke Article 50 ...
An easy way to solve this conundrum is to hold a binding Parliamentary vote on all the options available! If no majority, say 70 or 75% (to be agreed) is achieved then a further vote is taken on the 2 most popular options and then the one with the most votes is the winner! Any MP who abstains from v...

Re: New Cyprus Driving Licence and UK Car Rental
But.. printed on your 'new' Cyprus license is the date on which you passed your test ie the date from which you've 'held' a license!!

Re: New Cyprus Driving Licence and UK Car Rental
Unfortunately, Europcar terms and conditions for example state that you must provide "a full and valid driving licence which has been held for a minimum of 12 months", so if you have exchanged your licence in that period then you need to provide a copy of your previous one. Having said all...

Re: Paphos night life
Not necessarily but for people like me, the "clubbing days" are long gone! You could try the Sunshine radio site as there is an advert airing at the moment for a nightclub opening sometime soon in the Bar Street area which may suit your tastes.
