They are beautiful Max. I enjoyed the pictures very much, and would certainly like to see more, if you should get the time to post them. Thank you for sharing.

Re: They have Arrived

We've got about 12 or more around us on the border of Sea Caves/Agios Georgios. Most arrived yesterday, although I've been hearing a couple or so for the last week.

Re: Ambulances ...

I was aware that the ambulance in question was NOT Evangelismos. That is their current provider, as the principal says. I never said it was Evangelismos, people are just jumping to that conclusion. This works both ways. My post said NOTHING about Evangelismos and I'm not too happy that it is being s...

Re: Where is Al?

I thought AL was only over for a week. And being AL he would of posted. I am only a forum and PM friend of AL but it is concerning that he has not been in touch with anyone. Please don't be negative in replies as I'm just concerned. I'm sure Al will be grateful to you for your concern. As we know h...

Re: Who else suffers from a bad back?

I am really delighted for you over your improvement HiC. It does sound quite remarkable. Thank you for posting about those turmeric tablets as well, I think I may try those after my current batch has run out. It is always good to know of a company that posts to Cyprus as well.

Down by Cap St George in Sea Caves (Dominic blogged about the place a few months ago) there are plans for another two hotels....... They will be within spitting distance of each other.

Re: Who else suffers from a bad back?

Thank you HiC for the update. I have been wondering how you were doing. Whenever I come back from Cy, I need a trip to my osteopath as my back flares up. I have long though it is my mattress there, as I'm better in the UK, but haven't known where to go to get a really good one. I'll be trying out th...

Re: Help needed...re Cat..NOT re- homing..

I third the neutering advice, as that is exactly what we did when we had this problem with a stray. We borrowed a trap from PARC, and the local vets neutered the cat under a feral program for €20. We have not had a single whiff since then. Money well spent, and so much better for the cat. PARC will ...

Re: Organic Fertilizer (home-made)

If memory serves Max, and knowing my Dad, he would have shoved anything he thought was a good idea into the mix! Whatever it was, what came out of the tube was dark, thick and aromatically challenging.

Re: Organic Fertilizer (home-made)

My father used to do this, with a pipe attached to get the liquid out. I can't remember many details, as I was quite young, but I do recall that the startling aroma did make the eyes water somewhat. He kept it in the stable yard, a decent way from the house, but there was no mistaking when he had us...

Re: Who else suffers from a bad back?

I have suffered from back pain for years, arthritis caused by lifting heavy patients whilst nursing. I have taken very strong medication, including morphine tablets for pain. A few months ago I was hearing how some people were experiencing 'miraculous' pain relief by taking Turmeric capsules. Being...

Re: Who else suffers from a bad back?

Footwear affects your back? Oh lord. So dancing around in Neo's a couple of weeks ago with high heeled boots could explain my current relapse. And there was me thinking it was too much time spent pruning orange and olive trees. Come to think of it, it really was after the dancing that things deterio...

Well Mr Al, you may be interested to hear that because of the sad binoculars, I decided to up my game. I won't bore you with the binocular facts (partly because I can't lol) but they were fairly hefty, not fold up in a pocket type. And no, I had no clue how to set them up 😂 . Anyway, thanks to Amazo...

Re: Who else suffers from a bad back?

I'm interested in this post, having had some back issues myself. I was actually going to ask if anybody has seen latex (not memory foam) mattresses, but after HiC's post I will go and check out this mattress when over again in a few weeks. Thanks for posting.
