Mmmmm.interesting posts on this matter,however nobody has mentioned what is the time for having to be the proud owner of a biometric card. I was told in my local oasis it was August 23 2026. :? Your boozer mates are correct for once 😜 Legal advice down the pub tends to be as good as the paper its w...

I was looking forward to a summer of sport with the euros and the olympics.. I was looking forward to cheering on those young people who spend years of training and dedication to become the best they can be.. some of whom happen to be English or British. But thanks to Firefly I now understand how si...

Bindi I share your concerns re our problems here in the UK, that said, it was not simply changing the colour of a top. It was the changing of the colours of our nations flag. Men and women, have fought and died for our colours, some still serving may do yet. It is highly insulting to our country, t...

Could be worse... the german kit for example with the number 44 on the back..

It won't be 8.5% of my total pension. Last year I asked the DWP why the increase wasn't the actual percentage of my pension, they told me that only part of my pension was included in the increase, so what looks okay on paper, isn't actually, what some of us will in fact receive. If part of your UK ...

lol... team GB have "got form" taking abstract forms of the flag,....

it looks fine to me.. too many competitors appear in red white and blue (paticularly as the host country is france)..


looking forward to seeing our "heros" compete in this easily identifiable kit

lol.. you are right the UK .. unlike Cyprus is in Europe.. and Cyprus unlike the UK is in the EU

if England win the Euros it will be because of one player.. or one moment..

If england fail to get out of the group stage it will, no doubt, be because of this design..

i wonder what the scots will blame for failing to get out of their group..

what i find irritating about this kind of lazy reporting is the misrepresentation of the facts... coments like "But the rules changed after Brexit" give the impression that there was a change of rules... there was not.. what changed was that the UK whilst a member of the EU did not need to...

Mark 4007 Post Brexit British Nationals are protected by the withdrawal agreement https://www.legislation.gov.uk/eut/withdrawal-agreement/article/18 Which amongst a lot of other things states: The host State may require Union citizens or United Kingdom nationals, their respective family members and...

very interesting.. and useful

Just to add my two pence- I have my residency biometric card from March last year and it is stamped as valid up till 28/4/33 and also permits me to enter the UK for a period of 5 years to stay, if I wish- without any penalties if I so then desire to return back to Cyprus. With that in mind, I canno...

Mark 4007 I know you don't want to believe you have to change a paper document to a biometric card, we've been through this before, but can you please explain what the following, from my original post, means? Residence cards for family members who are non-EU nationals: must use the uniform format e...

One of the major benefits of getting a biometric card (rather than just keeping a yellow slip) is being in a special position as regards to ETIAS. In theory holders of the biometic card do not have to go through the ETIAS proceedure. however, It is not clear to me what practical benefits of having a...

Cyprus second hand car values are influenced by the lack of effective finanincing in the car market and by the lack of car fleets owned by companies... these combine to effecively create a new car market based on cash buyers which restricts the supply of used cars onto the used car market. The same ...
