Gardener recommendation
Hi,
Could any one please recommend a gardener to me, I have a house in Tremithousa, and have been mostly looking after it myself but keep coming for a month and spending half of my holiday working in the garden and have decided it's time to let some one else do it.
Many thanks in advance.

Re: Major problem with Wise (previously named Transferwise)
I have just transferred a few grand, no problem and a good rate with Wise, from my experience, I have been transferring money for 30 years to Cyprus, they all have a point where they have to do a check for money laundering and have to prove the money is clean but they never give you any warning.

Re: External Wall Problem
You could remove the loose render, roughen the smooth wall and tile over it using water proof external adhesive.

Re: Higher Bank Charges spark public anger
Can't Cyprus banks make a profit by lending the depositors money just like UK banks? I have 3 bank accounts plus a business account in the UK and do not pay any charges.

Re: Using a solicitor as an executor of a will.
Jeba: you do need an executor but it only needs to be a Cyprus resident, not a lawyer.
BMWX5: Your new will needs to be deposited at the law court for it to stand.
We checked all these points this year when we did our will.

Re: Using a solicitor as an executor of a will.
Yes, If you name the solicitor as executor he will handle the estate when you die, you would need to add a codicil to the will naming a new executor to change this. In Cyprus one or more of the executors or a lawyer working for them, must be a Cypriot resident. If you name a lawyer as executor he ca...

Re: Seaweed on sea front
I do remember that the wall caused the waves to go up when they hit wall and then crash down on the road, spectacular.
I only remember the seaweed collecting just past the out door baths, where there used to be a public beech.

Re: Amazon to stop accepting UK Visa credit cards from January
This is thanks to EU law, a couple of years ago the EU decided that companies could not pass on the charges from more expensive cards, i.e. if a credit card company charges 2.5% and the debit card company charges 0.5% you can't charge people who use a credit card the extra 2% nor can you give the cu...

Re: Repairs to granite countertops
It does firm up, you can use a block of beeswax polish then polish with soft cloth or you can buy a spray, it also stops the worktop from staining.

Re: Repairs to granite countertops
Hi, I install kitchens in the UK and often they have granite worktops, these are installed by granite fitters, when they do repairs with epoxy resin it is only to small faults and each fault costs about £100 so I doubt you will get the repairs you are looking for, granite can be waxed and polished t...

Re: Traffice camera leaflets
Greek, Turkish and English are all official languages of Cyprus and forms should be available in all 3 also since Cyprus is in the EU (Unlike the UK) it has to be made available in Brail and several other languages dependent on the form.

Re: Speeding fines
If the car is not taxed for 3 years the registration is deleted and before you can tax or drive the car it has to be re registered.

Re: Speeding fines
You have to transfer ownership in Cyprus as you can only tax the car if it's in your name and with insurance in your name.

Re: Quotes without VAT
Yes retail prices in the EU must show a total including any VAT though the VAT may be shown separately or just a final price. However trade businesses can quote before VAT so for instance if you go to the Home market it will show the total price with VAT but if you go to a builders merchant it may q...
