Re: Cool-headed advice needed for a friend in need.

If the property has an allocated parking space for each apartment there will be a plan showing which space belongs each apartment. Is there someone...

Try the pharmacies in your area. As with other items it depends on their supplier. Superhome has them - LOW STOCK - when I checked the website. https://superhome.com.cy/english/products/bathroom-plumbing/bath-beauty-accessories/bathing-accessories/hot-water-bottle-2l-0232534 The pharmacy below deliv...

Re: Funeral Questions …
We have a funeral plan which has been customised to our exact wishes and the price has gone up considerably since we took it out a few years ago. However, we have been assured there will be no extra cost at any time in the future and that is written in the agreement. If the cremation takes place in ...

Re: UK Pensions
It appears that people expecting their UK State Pension payment last Friday are also affected by the Thanksgiving Holiday in the USA on Thursday.
Apparently it should clear into their account on Monday.

Re: Tala Square demolition plans.
It is indeed a shame, as it will spoil the square. However, I looked at the list of people who signed the petition so far and noticed an absence of Cypriot names. Whilst not a scientific analysis, it suggests the majority of people objecting are not Cypriots and therefore don't have votes in the ne...
