Re: Autumn in the air.. Good morning everyone (pic)

This is one of 5 woodpiles I store around the property with almond tree wood which was cut 5 years ago and would burn perfect if needed unlike fresh delivered wood which is mainly not more than 2 years old and in some cases just cut. But this pile I would not touch as it is the home of many of my li...

Re: Recommendations for a restaurant for a special meal!

I was wondering the same thing re hotels. I know that my friends always having Sushi at the O'Shin Restaurant, Elysium Hotel, when they come to Cyprus as it is something which they cannot get better in Berlin. Alone the wine list shows what to expect concerning prices, but for a special night :?: W...

Re: On Norway's roads are 42% of the cars electric/hybr.now

I was just watching another video from Norway's electric car stories, which shows that all the worries about charging time is already solved there. As soon as Cyprus wakes up on this matter and the first Teslas are on the road, I believe many Cypriots with some money, sitting in a coffee shop, showi...

Re: Move over cheddar - Brits see Halloumi as new staple

I don't think Waitrose is a typical British supermarket, but it's nice to know that halloumi's fame is spreading. Nothing beats the authentic stuff though. Which raises a good question: where you do you find your best authentic halloumi? The stuff that walks to the frying pan itself. I like this on...

On Norway's roads are 42% of the cars electric/hybr.now

Yesterday I heard a nice report in German TV about Norway, the leading country in the World concerning electric cars, with now 42% of registered cars on their roads are electric or hybrids. And the best of it is that the electricity for it comes from renewable energies and is cost free, beside other...

Re: Little Quiz (botanical) this morning... pics (complete)

To me it looks like a carob tree, especially in the photos showing the trunk. You can see where some branches have been removed as they have to be from time to time as these huge old trees need some pruning to keep growth in check. Dee As you have carob trees in your garden you can easily see that ...
