Re: Virtual walk at defunct Nicosia Airport now possible

I remember using the airport in 1953 to return to Britain. The "lounge" was pretty much a comfort-less shack. The passengers had to walk quite a distance in the blazing sun to climb into the waiting DC3, run by British European Airways. The first part of the flight was to Athens where the ...

Re: Fringe best joke

As an ex-Edimbourgeois (up to the time that I was conscripted in 1951), I am ashamed of my city. Why? During the Edinburgh Festival, up to the end of this week, which attracts top people in all the arts, the rubbish collectors carefully went on strike, knowing that the city would become an eyesore w...

Re: Watering "potted" plants.

Depends on:
- size of pot
– size of plant
– species of plant
– exposure to sun
– type of soil in the pot
– drainage within pot
– et cetera

Re: Temperature in Cyprus to drop in next three days, rain also on the way

Very tiresome when the grammer police are on patrol. :lol: :lol: :lol: I must admit, I like well-written English because it lends more credibility to the text. I admit to having occasionally made remarks for flagrant breaches, but usually when the error may change the meaning. The use and misuse of...

Re: Average water usage and swimming pool evaporation

We do not have a pool, so that our water consumption is only a household plus irrigation. Our whole garden area is a tad over 1000 m², of which perhaps one third is irrigated. In hot, dry, weather, the irrigation is on for about 20 minutes twice a week (once a week in cooler weather), modulated acco...
