Paphos Life

It appears that the no hiding memo from the new chief of the traffic police has not reached the fine officers of Limassol, still hiding in their usual positions around sunny Limassol and not concentrating on accident black spots.
Anyone know how to access the info where accident black spots are?

Flossie shall I sit in the holiday resort with The Daily Telegraph over my head, that will stop it landing on me for sure!

Perhaps not good enough!

Of course that nice "I want to be your next Prime Minister" Mr Gove would not turn out like this lady would he? https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-7121939/Shocking-photographs-former-teacher-jailed-burglary-ravaged-heroin.html How can he seriously think that taking cocaine even 20 ye...

Go on then HIC, go spend millions of public money that Paphos doesn't have and see if and when you get that investment back. In the real real world do you really think that Paphos and Cyprus really is serious competition to such places as Venice, South of France, Athens, etc. Look at the new marina ...

Don't you think that Paphos is getting ideas above their station - How can you compare places like Venice to what Paphos has to offer? Like it or not Paphos has a few very small relics to show and does not have a vibrant centre to eat/drink and visit.

Looks like that nice Boris Johnson is off to court for allegedly telling lies about the supposed £350 per week that goes to the EU on the side of the Boris bus.

Or waiting for the tide to come in!

In the village I live in which is East of Limassol, the local council started a recycling area with bins for plastic/paper and glass. It was emptied once a week but became that well used it needed emptying at least 3 times a week. However it got closed and the reason's given was a) it was to popular...

I suggest that you try googling "Is deep fried food bad for you?"

Jim X the top pictures are real fish and chips that have been battered fresh and professionally cooked, the bottom ones are frozen products so not a like for like comparison!

Smudger and Jeba, both of you are making a basic error of believing anything that comes out of a politicians mouth!

Not if you are standing in the sun!

Guess what the Labour Party and Diane Abbott say that this lovely lady should be allowed back into the UK, no real surprise I suppose.

Maybe they can find some more terrorist(s) to allow back into the UK.

No doubt it will all end up in the court system(s) so I wonder who is going to pay the legal bill - thank goodness for the UK legal aid system!

David Brown, I think you should consider yourself very lucky that the officer was so lenient - you were travelling 33% over the speed limit so to get a €30 fine is very small.

Why are the Police a problem? They have stopped an offender and dealt with it albeit leniently in my opinion.

Has Shamima actually had a baby? Does she look like she has just given birth whilst in a refugee camp where one assumes that health facilities are not good? She looks remarkably healthy and carrying some extra weight for one in such a difficult position. Does she look tired from child birth? Has any...

Why is such a fuss been made about Begum? About 400 people (presumably mainly male fighters) who are British passport holders have returned from Syria to the UK already, of which some 10% have been prosecuted. The rest it appears are wandering around free and unsupervised. Whilst she has stuck her h...

If they had prosecuted him and bearing in mind that he has given up his driving licence what punishment can the courts give him? A fine is not going to be a problem, points on his licence not an issue as he has given it up. In reality very few people are taken to court for being the cause of road ac...

Police officers are given a reasonable amount of discretion in dealing with what in real terms is a minor offence. Norfolk Police seem to have a set policy on dealing with offences reported by the public using phone photograph pictures of alleged offences and used that policy in dealing with the all...
