Although most people will see through the scam email it would be helpful if Cyprus Post gave a little more information.

Surely they made a mistake with your licence Trev.
When I did my renewal towards the end of last year I saw my Doc on the 8th of the month, appointment at Citizens Service Centre on the 14th & the expiry date of my new licence was 3 years later on the 26th of the month, one day before my birthday.

I went to Baracas Lounge this morning with a couple of friends. Sat at a table & a waiter came to take our order. I said don't you want to see our Vaccination Cards, oh yes he said as if he wasn't really bothered. I won't be going there again.
