Re: MUKW3
Ha,ha! No these are people who've lived in Cyprus for a longtime. I understand that Limassol Immigration are more reasonable so these petty problems which Paphos have don't arise. Lucky them.

If you want a definite answer ask Gwennie, NOT the man down the pub!

Re: Paphos Seafront Roadworks Update - January 2024
I can’t see the point of this latest revamp, except that there must still be money left over in the Municipal kitty! It seems nonsensical to reduce the number of parking spaces in this area. As people have already been inconvenienced for months while the actual roadworks were being carried out, peop...

Re: Flu/Covid
True. When my sisters and I were children, my mother took each one of us to have all the 'jabs', polio, smallpox, and the others, scarlet fever, diphtheria etc. I find it hard to understand why these days some people refuse jabs for Covid etc. If you protect yourself from disease that's one less per...

Re: Flu/Covid
I had both jabs at the same time last October. One in each arm and had very little reaction, but have spoken to other people since. I was surprised that although some have had them, a number think they aren't necessary... time will tell.

Re: Crown Resorts Horizon Renovation - January 2024
Well, Crown Resort as it formerly was, looked really shabby by the end. It was badly in need of refurbishment and the renewal of its pools and the Spa. As presumably, the spa, indoor pool and gym will all continue to be situated in the hotel's basement. I really hope that the drainage and sanitary f...

Re: Update on crematorium?
At the moment I don't know anyone who's asked this question, jeba. But certainly around Paphos and the villages nearby where a number of British expats live, the village cemeteries are full and new sites for cemeteries have had to be found. As this is an island, with limited suitable land, perhaps l...

Re: Update on crematorium?
I think main objections come from the Greek Orthodox Church. But under EU dictats every EU country needs to have a Crematorium. Greece has one.
From what I've read in todays 'Telegraph newspaper the Palestinians of a certain London Borough don't seem too concerned about offending indigenous Brits.

Re: Masks and mandatory tests following Covid 'outbreak'
Holidaymaker, Are you a resident of the UK? I have come across some people there.who have strange ideas re wearing masks. In the UK there was an aversion to the word mask. The term there was 'face covering' Face coverings were flimsy fabric items useless as a mask. Introduced because the UK was woef...

Re: Aphrodite's Bridge
True, a while ago I had a friend with a good off road vehicle. He had done a lot of driving on old roads with the 4x4 Off Road Driving Group and knew the old white roads well in the Paphos area. We were all amazed by the number of them, probably once in use to the number of remote old stone villages...

Re: Masks and mandatory tests following Covid 'outbreak'
I was expecting that something was about to be done to try to reduce the spread of Covid. But I think it would also be sensible to wear a mask when in a Pharmacy or a Supermarket as well.

Maybe it was a slow news day... just a mention of an earthquake near Cyprus will get readers attention!
