Re: Excellent Cyprus online pharmacy
There aren't any prescription drugs on there that I can see. It looks like a Boots / Superdrug type online store with things like vitamins, cold/cough remedies and insect repellants etc.

Re: The Pink Stuff
I bought some last week in the Grande store on the coast road (smaller version of Cycleband). Tried a bit on a baking tray that had some burnt stuff on it, worked very well

Re: How much do you pay for a car-wash?
There is a mobile car wash that has started up recently, they advertise quite a lot on FB. They came out and did 2 of our cars, including the headlights on one of them. They did a very good job and we were impressed. They have a sign written van with all their equipment in and bring their own water,...

Re: oxo cubes
Lidl do not have the beef stock cubes ever, they only stock (!) chicken and veg ones. Philippos have beef ones but they are not Oxo, I think they are Knorr.

Re: Missing Dogs
Fairly sure I saw the one on the right in Tala earlier today. Past 'Blackpool Tower' (with it on your right), then the 2nd turning on the right after the abandoned blue Mini.

Bought a car from Andy Phillips on Polis Road and have no complaints, pleased with the purchase. There is another dealer I would strongly not recommend, will send you a PM about that.

Re: Possible murder in Coral Bay/Peyia
There's a slightly different story on the Cyprus Mail:
https://cyprus-mail.com/2018/06/24/brit ... o-persons/
It implies the tourists had been involved earlier in defending a lady that was being hit.

Re: SKLAVENITIS (CARRE fOUR)
I find the prices are better than when it was Carrefour and also they always have a lot of offers on items.
They also do home delivery apparently.
