Re: Banks closing over Easter.

I should make it clear that by "Easter Friday" they clearly did not mean Good Friday, in case anyone thinks I'm going do-lally

Re: Banks closing over Easter.

Unbelievable! No such thing as Easter Tuesday, pure union waffle. Doesn't affect me, unless the cash machines run out, which is always possible presumably, but businesses could be badly affected in terms of coinage. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Easter_Tuesday I was in AlphaMega this morning.

Re: Local Tip.

In the directory: https://www.paphoslife.com/directory/entry/green_point_chloraka Dominic - you might want to amend the directory instructions for reaching the tip. You can no longer turn right after Pizza Hut - the road is closed long term. Instead, carry on until you reach the first set of traffi...

Re: Lidl Silvercrest Air Fryer

Which.co.uk gives a pretty good first review of the Ninja, its only criticisms being its large size and lack of pre-set functions. Quite pricey, though (£179.99). Do people still use pressure cookers? We haven't used one since the early 90's, and then it was only used because of its speed when we go...

Re: Lidl Silvercrest Air Fryer

HiC, the Actifry appears to have a greater capacity and uses less oil than a lot of the competitors' mdels. Agree, the Actifry is a super gadget.

Re: NordVPN users?

I downloaded Chrome and called up BBC iPlayer. Now I get the iPlayer message "This content doesn't seem to be working".

Any suggestions, techies?

Many thanks in advance.

Re: NordVPN users?

How much space does a new browser take up (Piece of string question?). I ask as I am running low on space on my iPad - only 2GB left. Also, when I call up iPlayer on my iPad, how do I know what browser is being used? I don't see any reference to safari when I use BBC iplayer, ITVhub etc. Sorry if th...

Re: NordVPN users?

Many thanks, RW. I'll try that later, but out of curiosity why should a different browser make any difference to using IPlayer, when it was working OK previously?

Morning, Dominic. I get the "an error has occurred" message. (Not the "outside the UK" message") I've cleared the cache and (at the suggestion of NordVPN) tried to use one of several specific servers in the UK, but same result. NordVPN also suggested using a different browse...

NordVPN users?

I updated my NordVPN on my iPad on Friday, and since then I've not been able to watch via BBC Iplayer. ITVHub & All4 are fine.


Anyone else had a problem?

AlphaMega are certainly open - I had a text message from them this morning - so that probably means Paps is also open.

Bearing in mind the problems I've had with cordless phones - and have still not resolved the issue (i.e I haven't found the right cordless phones for the job), be careful!

Re: Kitchen unit door replacements.

Apologies if I'm wrong, but I thought that the Geroskipou company (the one you find/found if you turn right at the lights) closed a year or two ago. Just mentioning that to save you time if you can't find them!

Re: Service and paintwork

This is a very good example of why I don't look at this forum as much. At times, it resembles a playground.
