Paphos Life

Prior to it being a restaurant It was a typical Cypriot bungalow. My wife knew the old lady who used to live there.

Oh my, the flood gates would open. 'That's my mummy', takes on a whole new meaning :o Just as a matter of interest, Josef, how would you address it, or think that it should be addressed? I accept that the return of the marbles may well set a precedent. Whether that results in flood gates opening is...

Oh for goodness sake, they belong in the museum just down from the Parthenon, together with the other part of the marbles. They form no part of British history and most of the UK population have never seen them. If they were returned they would be at no risk of damage due to the high standards maint...

A multicultural dinner at ours with a few friends who would otherwise be on their own. Then feet up with a glass of something. Followed by me nodding off.

Interesting. I believe Jumbo are one of the owners of the mall, and presumably needn't pay rent, so it would be strange to leave it.

No, you are wrong. I lived in the area long enough to know that serial killer Metaxas dumped the bodies in the red lake of Mitseras, Nicosia district and not in the Kinousa red lake... one source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mitsero_murders Max Apologies Max, you are quite right. Clearly, I shoul...

A beautiful area indeed, peaceful and serene. However, when visiting, please spare a thought for the female victims of the serial killer Metaxas, some of whom he dumped in suitcases in the lake five years ago.

Good video Dominic. I love the old town at night. Smart, fun, up market, and relaxed. So much better than TOTK and Coral Bay.

The woman who runs the MP Kiosk (often called the Philippine Supermarket) in the Titania centre is called Needa and she is really helpful. So don't be shy and pop in for a browse. She stocks Philippine and Sri Lankan items. You will find stuff you won't get anywhere else in Paphos, and also that you...

My spam call said money laundering.

I've just had a call from the police saying there is an arrest warrant issued against me.
Am I worried? No.
It's obviously spam. It's a computer voice, and the police don't ring you up. They call round and arrest you.
Don't fall for it. Just hang up.

I recommend Revolut as they allow you to have an account anywhere and you get a UK account number and sort code.

Great tour Dominic. One of my favorite areas at night, having a real buzz. I have to say the Chernobil Bar does excellent cocktails.

Thanks for this Dominic. It's good to see the roundabout from above. I've often wondered what it looked like from tha angle.

I'm a big fan of Fabrica Hill and have regularly walked it. There is always something to see which has been newly discovered

The Agora restaurant you mention used to be upstairs in kenedy Square. It has relocated and is a decent meze restaurant.

The roof supports you refer to are, in fact, street lights. You will see one in front of the official market entrance. No roof planned for the market according to what I hear.

Don't forget the third bus station. Down at the harbour next to the archaeological park entrance. Once open it should free up the space next to Hondros for public parking.

In the old town, next to the Makedion theatre.

There was a railway back in the 40s or 50s. It never got as far as Paphos, and terminated it's western end in Morphou. To build one now, given the cypriot terrain, would cost hundreds of billions.
