Re: Paphos agrees contract for new bicycle rental network

It's good idea might appeal to some young tourists, but it's pretty much the end of the summer season. It will be a brave person who will hire a push bike in winter, and with variable weather. Not to mention the volume of traffic on many often narrow roads in the town.. Also some drivers are lets s...

Re: Paphos agrees contract for new bicycle rental network

I wish other towns gad a mayor like yours , always trying to improve Paphos, I've seen these bikes all over europe, and the UK, anything that gets people out of cars must be a good thing, healthier people less pollution etc. I have a bike and i use it more in the winter then in the hot summer

Re: Cameron Back

Dominic Whatever else Boris did, he got Brexit done, which is the main reason why he was voted in, in the first place. Secondly, whatever anyone says, he did a brilliant job over Covid . We could do a lot worse than bring him back, but sadly, according to reports, he refused to come back. Not surpr...

Re: Old Bedford bus

Coming on holiday back in the 60s, we often travelled on these from town to town , bone shakers , you could just stick your hand out and they would stop for you, no need for bus stops back then.

Approaching the new traffic lights with cameras today in central Larnaca they turned amber then red, this didn't stop three cars in front of me going through, resulting in three camera flash lights going off, either these morons have more money then sense or they just like having their photo taken :D

Re: Further 66 traffic cameras due to come online

WHL I am surprised that you have been caught (twice) by the mobile vans. I see them quite often in my travels in the Paphos Region, and there always seems to be a warning 'camera' sign before the van.. This was when they first started and there were no warning signs back then, about a year ago or a...

Re: Further 66 traffic cameras due to come online

It surprises me if people are still speeding after seeing the camera sign.. The van and the signs are having the desired effect. They are making people slow down . At least many motorbikers don´t seem to be impressed. After all, the cameras won´t catch their number plates, which are at the back end...

The problem may arise when someone runs into the back of you because you have stopped immediately at a Red Light, and they were going to drive through Chance you have to take Trev, unless you want a ticket, hopefully in time these idiots who jump lights, might get the message after having to pay la...

Re: Harry Kane scores from 60 m.... short cllip

A change is as good as a rest, and all that. Lincoln got rid of our manager recently and we've had 7 points out of 9 since, with a caretaker. Also FC Bayern Munich got rid of their coach this year, who was very talented but young and is now coach of the German Team. However there were fears in the ...
