Re: Recycling goes door to door in Tala

They were a bit later today in Lofos part of Tala but still before lunch time. Was it visible to them?

Re: Permanent Partition?

Good overview from The Economist posted in the Paphos News section.
We have the opposite of a win-win situation in my opinion.

Re: British tourists made to pay after bank makes a mistake

What a Story! Lucky for the outcome via the Sunday Mail intervention. An ATM card seems to be the best solution these days as said above. A. I want to emphasise that people should only use BANK cashpoint machines though, in my opinion. The other ones charge a HUGE commission. Good point, especially...

Re: New Paphos walkway opened.. CYWeekly)

At the start of the walkway, at the municipal bath, where Pizza Hut is, there was another Paphos 2017 performance last night. I think it was called "Vibes of Life (or Death?)" and was a performance by Erasmus students from all across Europe as far as we could gather. Good show and a brilli...

Re: New Paphos walkway opened.. CYWeekly)

We did the path tonight with the kids on their three scooters. A tremendous improvement - wide and well designed with plenty of lights and benches. The very regularly spaced lights are about a metre above ground so should last much longer than the previous ones. There are also proper street lights, ...

Thank you Louise, that's where we replaced it the last time. Still hoping for a more local solution though ;)

Excellent mid day activity

1. Visit the old powerhouse (palia ilektriki) to see the "Life of the Dead" exhibition as part of the Paphos 2017 activities. Great. Even for kids/teenagers. Open 10:00 to 13:00 and 16:00 to 20:00 hrs. 2. Walk across renovated Kennedy square to town hall with renovated square (all marble n...

Re: Battery for Swatch

I would imagine any shop that sells watches.....and they will fit it to. Few years ago struggled to get it replaced here. The airport shop that sells Swatches did not have batteries and I think we eventually got it replaced in the Mall of Cyprus in Nicosia. There must be a more local solution for s...
