Re: Trozena Reborn
What a lovely post, it's been a couple of years since I drove through the village so I'll have to go back soon. I first came across the waterfall by accident years ago, it was a lovely surprise. Hopefully we'll have enough rain next winter for it to flow again.

Re: First time .... (pic)
That is worrying, poor foxes and other wildlife. I am envious though that you got to see one up close and get a photo. The few times I have seen a fox they've just been quickly running across the road. Just for you, Ams, the next day the male fox appeared at my garden and I got him just after it wa...

Re: Getting To Foinikas From Anarita
I walked to Foinikas from the water treatment building a few weeks ago. An enjoyable walk if you don't mind the uphill on the way back. It's not too steep though. The walk took me around 2 hours round trip but that's me taking it very easy, walking down a bit as well as up to Foinikas, and stopping ...

Re: Shipping products from UK
With eShop you have to fill in the customs declaration once the parcel arrives at their warehouse, even when it's an EU warehouse, and then you pay the VAT and customs charge (for UK parcels) when it arrives in Cyprus. So all seems above board. (I have nothing to do with the company, I've just found...

Re: Shipping products from UK
Here you go - https://www.eshopwedrop.com.cy/en They stopped the UK for a while but they do it again now. You do end up paying VAT twice (in the UK and on arrival here) but when I need something I can't get another way I just grin and bear it (and swear about Brexit). It takes 2-3 weeks to arrive he...

Thanks for the update Dominic and good to hear the cafe is now open. It would be a great location for a lunch break from work, when I occasionally treat myself to one.

Re: "Coral" will bring temperatures much down...
I'm quite enjoying it, the air is lovely and fresh and it makes a nice change after the mild January (and last few winters). It helps that it's not raining though, as it would be more miserable then (though yes, I know we desperately need rain). But yes, I like cold spells to be quite short lived, I...

Re: Compost Bins
I really liked the idea of having a compost bin, but mine never seemed to turn into compost so I stopped using it.
Any experts out there who can give me advice on how to make it work?

Re: Maximum visits to GP on Gesy
I believe that logging a repeat prescription request (I do mine by email) as a visit on Gesy is a Gesy requirement, not doctors being greedy. Something about a visit needing to be logged in order to create a prescription on Gesy. But I can't remember where I heard that, so I may be wrong. I also see...

Re: Altitude sickness tablets for overseas travel
Thanks Sunspot. Knowing what we can get here may be useful for me one day if I visit another high altitude country. My friend and I wished we had some tablets when we were in Bolivia last year.

Re: Further setback for Paphos-Polis highway
Personally I don't see this as a setback. The setback was Intrakat. They have removed them and now the process can continue. Yes, I'm hoping this will turn out to be good news, if they can find a new company soon enough and it's a decent company that will actually get the job done, rather than leav...

Re: Not too much rainfall but the storm was nasty... (pics)
I'm in Anarita too, near KEN. It must have been blowing from the north, as the front of the house (i.e. driveway, front door) was battered and the ground there and down the sides of the house are now covered in a carpet of bits of the trees surrounding the property. My bin and compost bin ended up f...
