Re: Fly Again

Was in the Halfway House last week, chicken souvlaki was fantastic, love this place so friendly and good inexpensive food. Going back there tomorrow for lunch.

Re: Drinking on planes

Could always enforce the showing of boarding passes for buying drinks at airport bars, number of drinks could then be limited to say 2 or 3 per pass.

Re: Halloumi

Had grilled halloumi with honey drizzled over it in a taverna, adds a different flavour and was delicious.

Hi,

When we first bought our apartment we had a mystery ammonia smell which took ages to detect, turned out to be one of our ceiling light fittings, changed it and the smell quickly disappeared, worth checking out.

Medical Insurance Cost

Hi,

As we are planning to move out next year it would be good to get some examples of medical insurance costs, we will be under 60 and happy to have an excess of say €2000.

Thanks,

Re: yellow slip

Hi David,

We are planning to move out next year, similar to your situation will have savings and rental from a UK investment property, was there any indication of amount of savings to qualify for a yellow slip?

Re: Sat Nav
