A couple of years ago I was gardening in shorts , flip flops and fortunately heavy garden gloves. I was pulling leaves out from under a hedge and carrying them across to a garden bin. I was half way to the bin and a blunt nosed viper dropped out of of the leaves , I am not sure who moved the fastest...

Thankyou, Cyprus max.

Is that the rare vindscreen viper ?

Sorry I will get my coat.

I have a Sony tv and sound bar , I found that the remote control was more effective when I was standing up rather than sitting down. Moved the tv higher and the remote is now working when I am sitting down.

Hi William

Just twigged what you are saying , no never met Al , photo taken at Viklari or Last Castle a couple of years ago .

The word expatriate means " a person living outside their native country " . This sums up the position perfectly and I cannot understand why any one would want to question this or take offence from it.

There is a good selection on eBay.

As at treat we always have a meal at Andrias on our visits , the 10% discount card helps. I shared a surf and turf with my daughter on my last visit which was superb , probably the best steaks in the area.

With these latest micro chips you also have a remote control with a mute button.

I am bringing out an Internet radio on my next trip , the choice of programmes is awesome and you can even choose local radio stations in the UK. There is a great choice of music and plenty of background music channels. I have a birdsong channel which I set on a timer to send me off to sleep. They a...

Thanks Dominic.

Jim , I think that might be the same building. I am trying to find a photo I took last May when the renovation first started.

Terry

At least an old and historic building has been rescued before it fell down. Let's hope it is being sympathetically restored. It most be over a year since they started , hoping it was going to be finished before I arrived in May but it does not look like it !

Terry

When I was out last year they were renovating the old Carob building on the headland above Corallia bay , has this been completed yet ? I believe it was going to be a restaurant , bar .

I have bought a now tv box for £7 on eBay , for that price I am happy to have a fiddle with it and see how I get on. Bringing it out next month to Cyprus so will give feedback then.

Terry

The current exchange rate with Currency Fair is 1.1413 so 1.12 down at the harbour is not bad . If you have a Cyprus bank account then some one like currency fair is one of the best routes to go. I generally have the money in my Cyprus account within 48 hours.

I notice my iPhone 6 has just upgraded to ios11 whereas my iPad which is some years old is stuck on ios9 , I guess this is going to cause a problem in the future. Looks like Apple will make a killing when everyone has to upgrade.

Terry

Thankyou Al. I note that you can buy a brand new box on eBay for less than ten pounds so worth a punt.

Terry

Thankyou for the link . Over the years this has been one of my complaints, I have Sky and BT in the UK but when I come for my three months to Cyprus I am unable to use either, how easy this will be is another matter.
