Re: Blood tests

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

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.

Yes, you are right! I saw Aspire in the OP and incorrectly assumed it was the last roundabout with the school on it!
