Re: Twenty outgoing MPs to share €3m one-off tax-free payment

No wonder so many 'hopefuls' had registered as candidates at the recent parliamentary elections! From memory the total of these was around 650 contesting 59 seats.

Re: Paphos Harbour Walk

It's in the harbour area where the absence of the usual number of tourists is most noticeable.

Re: No new countries added to UK Green List, according to BBC.

It won't be the first time that members of this Govt have broken self isolation regulations...
Think of another, 'senior advisor' who broke lock down rules last year. And was later exonerated by the PM.
Not good...

Re: Excellent Cyprus online pharmacy

Oh, I forgot about the one of the Coral Bay Rd! Which together with the 4 in the village makes 5 pharmacies. Yet they all stay in business.

Re: Earth moving costs

Jeba, You would be wise to act on this good advice. You really appear to need professional advice, so select a good architect, surveyor and so on The architect should be better able to help you select a good builder.

Re: Excellent Cyprus online pharmacy

Trev, it's indeed surprising that no pharmacist has seen a good business opportunity. You would think that Polemi would already have one. Here in Chloraka we have no less than 4 of them! I remember when the Pharmacy first opened in Tala, just after a doctor who had been practicing in that village mo...

Re: No new countries added to UK Green List, according to BBC.

It seems that the attitude among some in the UK is veering towards being more insular. However a part of your tourist industry is really suffering, both travel agents, overseas tour operators and last but not least Britains airlines. Yet no one seems to care if /when covid is over some remaining air...

Re: No new countries added to UK Green List, according to BBC.

It's ironic that Boris is effectively preventing British citizens from having a holiday abroad, yet does anyone know if the international flights into British airports are still running? If they are there will still be a risk of new covid variants entering the UK. What's the point of countries spend...

Re: No new countries added to UK Green List, according to BBC.

Yes, Boris claimed that there was a new variant from Nepal, which might prove resistant to vaccines.. It crossed my mind too that he was adding to the project fear that keeps many people accepting his continual travel restrictions. But it can't be fair to the travel industry or to the British airlin...

Re: Going to far.

I wish that all airlines would do this, but no doubt unless it was adopted by all air lines, the law suits would start... I've been victimised by the airline with which we had booked our seats from Dubai to Larnaca. The flight was full and my seat turned out to be the middle one in a line of 3. Seat...

Re: Coronavirus: Masks to stay, amid mixed messages from officials

Yes, it's irritating having to wear masks when outside. It's also a little irritating that still nothing has been said about more than 2 people going for a walk together outside. This makes it difficult for walking groups which are usually sociable. Strictly speaking are they also confined to just 2...

Not sure about this outfit. I can usually get what I need without going on line. Shops like Ikagora, Polis Rd and the Euro Shop in Gereskipou usually have a few pharmacy items. But I wouldn't buy prescription drugs from any where but a proper pharmacy.There are so many to choose from...

I see that no one has answered the O.P's question. Yes, your wife should apply for an International Driving License. Have you tried to see if you can do it on line? Cyprus has already said that motorists need to have either a Cypriot Driving license or an International one in June. If you need help,...

Re: Attending funeral in the U.K.

Yes, a friend of mine went back to the UK last Wednesday. She has to stay in self isolation for 10 days not 8! There is a £10,000 fine if you are caught violating this.

Re: Attending funeral in the U.K.

Yes, BA from Larnaca-Heathrow. Twice weekly.
But also bare in mind that at present you will need a neg PCR test 72hrs before leaving Cyprus.
In the UK you have to self isolate for 10 days, plus have 2 further tests after 2 and then 8 days. All tests have to be purchased before leaving Cyprus.
