Re: Clocks turn back an hour on Sunday
I too really want to keep summertime all year round - but worry that they'll opt to stick to winter time all year because of schools starting so early. I work near a school and can see plenty of students walking home afterwards - it's in town so there are loads of houses close by. I presume some wil...

Re: Government ally calls out EAC for cheating on subsidised bills

Re: Collecting water from your A/C...
Unfortunately my a/c water outlets are close to the ground, but I can get a 5l watering can under one of them and a cat litter tray under another, and use the water for my plants.
As you said, it's amazing how much water you can collect on humid days.

Re: Amazon.de and UPS … Ye Gods
I order quite a bit from Amazon.de and it always comes with DHL, not UPS. And it works fine with DHL, I get notifications all along and the parcels arrive in a couple of days. I do tend to opt to pick up from their office, so don't know what home delivery would be like, but I'm in town for work so i...

Re: Soederberg excavations at Tekke/Larnaca, must see pics...
Thanks Max
I've seen a couple of articles on this but hadn't seen any photos.
I wonder if the site will be open to the public one day?

Re: Muntyan's Labyrinth - Walking Tour
I first came across this years ago, when only the 1st circle was there. It's been great to revisit over the years and see the progress, I find it fascinating. Some of the rocks are quite red/coppery, so I presume he brought those from elsewhere in Cyprus as the local rocks aren't that colour. I I wo...

Re: Highway closure
At 9.30 this morning the motorway was closed from Anarita/Mandria onwards, towards Limassol. So you could drive from Paphos as far as Anarita, but after that had to take the B-road. Unless that's changed since then you're still fine for the airport as you can drive as far as the Anarita/airport junc...

Re: Large Hail & rainbow
These are incredible photos Max!!!
I love the contrast of the really dark skies with the light on the pool and fields. And with the falling white hail clearly showing. They're stunning.

Re: Smart App or SMS Payment Required At 8 Parking Locations From Monday
Next question - Do you need internet access when you are using the App to enter the 4 digit parking space number? Yes, I have a smart phone but use it mostly for voice calls, sending/receiving SMS and playing games! For the smart app you do need internet. But you only need to turn data on for a min...

Re: Smart App or SMS Payment Required At 8 Parking Locations From Monday
In other words they are removing the coin operated ticket machines in those 8 car parks around Paphos. Really like the App, I know it only small change but I like having it pay only what I use when just popping somewhere for a short while and paying a few cents and not faffing about making sure I h...

Re: No good news for off-road lovers in Akamas...
And how will you be getting to the Akamas? And there is the dilemma.... I want to protect the Akamas and leave it as natural . But I also want to be able to visit and enjoy that nature a couple of times a year. I don't have a 4x4 and am certainly not (and never will be) fit enough to cycle it, and ...

Re: BA Avios points.
Unfortunately the linking your Avios to a credit card or Nectar card is no use to me as I am not British and have no money in the UK... The solution would be a go on exciting holiday across the world, flying via UK on BA or affiliate, to use rather than lose all my points, but alas, that's not reall...

Re: BA Avios points.
If you take out a credit card that gives you Avios points or collect them another way you will be OK, you only loose points if you don't add or spend points for more than 3 years. Gary. What about if you just buy from Avios points from their website? Is that enough to stop them expiring? Avios didn...
