Re: Changing the content of a post

Woody2 I think that calling the fact that threads deviate, abuse, is a bit strong. As with normal conversation, topics always will vary, and if we take it that we must never deviate from the original topic, how utterly boring that would be.

It seems that people who can't raise their personal energy to post a new topic, are very enthusiastic when it comes to diverting the OP thread into a completely unrelated subject, effectively ending any further discussion of the original topic. The 'administration' seem unable or unwilling to curtai...

Just that some people have a lower boredom threshold than others & react accordingly.
But you don't though. You just whinge about it on Social Media.

Re: Cyprus; Living the Dream, or is it a nightmare?

You are obviously still in the honeymoon period in Cyprus, time will tell! Hold hands with your supporters, most are probably in public denial of making the move too. [/quote] Not at all. Many people choose to go back to the UK. And fair play to them if that is what they decide. It is entirely up to...

Cyprus; Living the Dream, or is it a nightmare?

You have all read the hype, but like us (after retiring & living on the island since 2012), is the evertyday reality now more of a nightmare existance whilst waiting for God? We plaguarised this narrative which seems to encapsulate are current feelings; This is island fever! While Cyprus is a pa...

Dog walkers behaving irresponsibly

Hi, Could someone let me know if there is anybody to complain to about dog walkers passing our property & letting them defecate without cleaning up their mess afterwards? Is the Mukta the first port of call or is there any other alternative (barring a shotgun), to curtail these anti-social ignor...

Re: Looking to sell my Rav4

Best to take your vehicle to various dealers and see what you are offered. Maybe a trip to Limassol would be worth it. That's what I did and the offers varied considerably. Also bear in mind that private purchasers are likely to offer more than the dealers. As an aside, when insuring your vehicle t...
