Re: Paps home delivery

This was my Order, emailed to the Customer Services. customer.services@papantoniou.com.cy
I think they will also take phoned orders.

It's cash on delivery, albeit you have no idea the size of the bill until they deliver.

UK Nursing Home 'care'

My granddaughter works in a Nursing Home in Buckinghamshire. This past weekend (Mothers Day), relatives were allowed to visit AND to take their elderly relatives out to visit parks, riversides etc.. Incredible stupidity IMHO.

Re: Shopping Experience Today

This morning I emailed my shopping list of 23 products to Paps and within the hour they phoned to say is 1 o'clock OK, even though I'd said any time/day this week. Pay with cash, which is a nuisance as it means I must break my self isolation to visit a bank. Still, that's much less exposure than tra...

Re: Shopping Experience Today

The bus pass one is valid, but doesn't apply to Cyprus, or am I mistaken. Personally I would prefer it pensioners had the 1-5pm slot, or something similar. Mistaken. I have a bus pass. 50% off the price of any ticket. But, it's a good point about time to get up & dressed (perhaps by a carer) as...

Re: Coronavirus: 15 booked for breaking decrees, including two churches

I'm wondering what, if any, package of financial packages will be forthcoming from the government to help these places & individuals, through these challenging times?

Re: Danger of coronavirus

When it affects a family in a personal way, it really does drive home the messages; keep your distance, wash your hands, but preferably stay at home!

Re: Plans for summer

Thanks WHL for the post. Spent the evening playing the numerous YouTube listings, even though I have Bee Gees CD's. The Live performance are quite moving when you realise there's just Barry left (now 73 years old)

Re: Help for elderly & vulnerable people (UPDATE)

The CM reports today that a number of Pafos supermarkets are willing to home deliver. Just an email or phone order is required, so know exactly what it is you want before phoning. See https://cyprus-mail.com/2020/03/21/coro ... ry-spikes/
