Re: Where to go for Brunch

Trevhil, could you give us some feedback on Omikron please. We have passed by several times and it always appears to be full so it's probably very popular. Thanks

Re: Paphos Municipality initiates water supply disconnects for unpaid bills

They remove the meter and seal the supply pipe. To take water from the supply pipe after this constitutes theft. If the premises seems occupied they will check from time to time that the supply pipe seal has not been tampered with.

Request from Hellenic Bank to validate personal details

Has anyone else received fairly regular requests by email from, supposedly Hellenic Bank, asking us to validate our personal details? We've assumed it's a scam and have deleted them, but just thought I'd ask as we've received two this week.

Thanks

Re: English Greetings cards

We also find Partymania expensive although their products are good. Euromania in Geriskipou have lots of cards at reasonable prices and a lot of the charity shops sell them too.

Re: Shower Stool/Seat conundrum?

When my wife was unable to stand in the shower we bought a three legged, triangular shaped stool from Amazon DE for our small shower cubicle. It worked very well as it slotted into the corner leaving quite a lot of space.

Re: My cars headlights.

We had ours restored two weeks ago by Linda's Garage next to Lidl off the roundabout towards Mesogi. Took about half an hour and cost €50. We had tried doing it ourselves with several compounds but the result weren't particularly impressive and they soon reverted to the foggy state.

Re: Amazon/Cyprus

We still buy from Amazon DE but wait until we need a number of items with a cost of a couple of hundred Euros. We then place the order and pay for expedited delivery. This costs maybe 40 Euros and the goods come by courier within a couple of days.
