We paid all fees and the initial deposit in euros but as we purchased from expats moving back to the UK paid the rest by bank transfer in sterling to avoid double exchange rate issues.

Re: Selling House for sterling.
We agreed a price and exchange rate when purchasing our house and paid a nominal sum in Euros here followed by the balance in sterling direct to the seller so no exchange rate issues?!

Re: Passport control
With small children any parent should be pleased for the caution and sensible enough to have the necessary proof if asked. This happened to me once with my son from my first marriage but he was about 8 and the official just asked him who I was so that was fine. But I did have necessary documents jus...

Sorry I cannot really help but in those circumstances I would get a referral to the London surgeon or get on a plane and take it from there? I do wish you well in uncertain times and hope you have family to support you through the next few months. x

Dominic did pull a load of Very old wet wipes out and we bought some 'stuff' from Paphos home market to put in the water side, this clears the soak away. Then I bought kef...
