Paphos Life

Thanks for your replies,i have had a Cypriot licence for the past 9 years,and oh dear I will be 76 next month..

Of course,those of us entering our twilight years have to renew or driving licence,s when reaching 70/73/76 and so on.I do note that a doctors certificate has to be acquired to prove your eyes are,,,,well,,,ok.Then what? And how near to that dreaded new birthday does your doctors note have to be dat...

Another mouth to feed Make that statement to an American and right or wrong they will assume you,,, well.....have not grasped the situation. The Royal family,the envy of the world,costing every person in the UK just 67 pence a year,,,,and you say "another mouth to feed" Ah well. :roll:

Hate to mention this cos i,ll probably get some flack off members...There are limitations to stop building work going on seven days a week to give us all a bit of peace,and understandable..Yet try to get your neighbours dog from barking 24/7 ...Sorry dog owners

Noisy building work??????????? We recently stayed at an airport hotel in Dubai and the building work next door ran from 6am to around 11pm,,My afternoon nap was really curtailed..Oh,and as a footnote a bottle of the local beer was 33durams a bottle (around 8 quid)...Otherwise it was ok

And HIC, I am not actually sure what the MEU3 will do for you....you won't be a EU Citizen..... As has been reported many times previously on other threads, it will give me right of residency here in Cyprus. I have downloaded the MEU3 application form and it states clearly on the front sheet "...

10% exercise,,,,,,,90%,,,,,fooooooooooooood,,,,for weight loss that is.,,, perish the thought,,

Sorry guy,s but yes,joining a gym and getting plenty of exercise will keep you fit and help a "little" with burning off a few calories,but you will never beat a knife,fork and spoon for weight loss....oh dear

Thanks to everyone for your help.So I have decided in my wisdom to be on the safe side and apply for a MEU3.How ever I can,t for the life in me find one on line to down load,,,,any help in where I can find on please.

Where,s the best place to buy (new or old) one of those very very large pots.you know the type,they are often seen turned on their sides in gardens with plants or something coming out of them,,thanks for any help.

galexinda and Austin7,,thanks for your reply's..Yes we have "yellow slips" that is A4 size paper MEU1.They where issued to us in 2010 but there is no expiry date on them.We also have the (credit card size) residency cards 05-49588 which have an expiry date 9/9/2020. Oh for a quite life in ...

What with brexit looming so close,there is much talk about what we should or should not do about completing an MEU3 form.
In our particular case we have been retired here for 15 years,pay our taxes here,Have a residency card(credit card size) valid to October 2020.Mmmm,do we have to do anything

Yes,now and again you do get someone who does you a good turn and for want of no return favour or benefit to themselves. At a certain airport a couple of weeks age we had a connecting flight to make.After disembarking our first flight it was obvious that we where not going catch the connecting fligh...

Sorry to harp on again but we have just got back from a local village restaurant.A huge lunch,perfect in every way ,served on a stone cold plate.By the time we got to the chips they to where as cold as the plate...

Another place we have been for an English Breakfast is the Nereus Hotel in Paphos.. You have to pay €5 at the reception, but then you can eat as much as you like.. Cereals, fruit juices, cold meats, hot breakfast items, toast, tea, coffee, and fruit. It is all on a help yourself basis.. They start ...

Grrrrrrrrrr,my biggest pet hate of all time,grrrrrrrrrr,being served a full piping hot English breakfast on a......COLD plate. So you have to eat it in the order of which item goes cold the soonest.. My suggestion is the egg,then the bacon then the beans,then the tomatoe,followed by the sausage,,(an...

David & Goliath,,well done Rochdale,the wifes home town.

Some 35/40 years ago I suffered tremendously from lower back pain, it shot down my left leg and in factI was laid up in bed for two weeks.I was advised to buy a "back swing apparatus"...You trap yourself in it and you swing,using your own weight into an upside down position like a bat..Of ...

Trev this is for a Cypriot bank and a UK bank.

A little difference of opinions the other day (in the local bar of course) on whether it is safe to take your beloved lap top on a cruise ship and do your on line banking there. Side one said it is unsafe as it is easy for the bad guys to hack into on board,whilst the other side said not so as ships...
