Paphos Life

I've long enjoyed walking and swimming in the area along the sea caves but huge new developements have now been given the green light. I've also noticed along the shore by Cap St. George, signs listing a whole host of activities that are no longer permitted. My fear is the publics ability to use thi...

They are very pretty little flowers. I see lots of them growing in the Avakas Gorge.

What sort of flower is this?

It looks, to me, like Friars Cowl.

It's my understanding that the anti venom for humans is very expensive and has to be kept refrigerated. The veterinary clinics might be selling shots of something like adrenaline, rather than anti venom?

Haha, I think it must have been a dust tan. The sun didn't really make an appearance in the end, did it.

I'm sure the sun will come out later..

I see 4, too.

Because the question asks how many birds you can see, rather than how many birds are there, everyone's answer is, technically, correct

Is this on the track, from Arodes, that follows the Avakas Gorge, passes very close about mid way along the gorge at its steepest and narrowest point, then heads north west towards Lara? At this point the gorge is far below to the left and a small goat farm is on your right?

I still think the owner drove to Coral Bay, celebrated New Year's Eve and then did the decent thing by getting a taxi home, forgetting all about the car

They didn't drive it to the pub to celebrate New Years Eve and then get a taxi back, forgetting all about the car, did they?

Haha, I am just about to make my wife a cuppa in bed. She deserves a lie in. Me, I prefer to be up and watch the day come to life. Good morning!

Sorry Steve M, leaving the scene is not a bar to been breath tested, yes you need at the time to have reasonable suspicion that the person was the driver (Not a lot of suspicion needed, say 4 people in the car and none own up to who the driver was you can test all 4 people and they commit offences ...

And even if they lawfully entered the property and the man was breathalysed and shown to be over the limit, they still couldn't do him for drink driving as he had already left the scene and gone home. It's unfortunate in this case but that's how the law works. He simply has to say that after the col...

It reminds me of the time, many years ago, when a couple of teenage idiots stole my Vauxhall Cavalier SRi130 from outside my house and ended up failing to make a corner and ploughed it through a fence and into a field. I had to fill in the insurance claim form and got to the question that asked &qu...

Whilst I hope that this man is prosecuted to the full extent of the law, if the drunk driver left the scene, went home and locked himself indoors straight after the collision and before being spoken to by the police then I'm afraid there is very little chance that he'll be prosecuted for driving und...

Looks completely dry outside as I stand at the kitchen window, waiting for the kettle to boil.

The walkway looks as though it might head over the road in the direction of the smaller Roman Hotel building and possibly take people into to the main mosaics site which currently has it's main entrance by the harbour? The perimeter fence of the main site is right against the hotel. Or, opposite the...

It was from quite a distance, and I'm no expert, but that might well be the type of helicopter that I saw.

The aircraft I saw yesterday had a much 'heavier' profile.
