Re: exchange rate
www.xe.com 1 GBP =1.14669EUR Do not forget the exchange commision charge Vic, if you use that outlet, AND do check the exchanged cash amount or change.. www.Transferwise.com also does a loaded credit card system, many of us here use their services. As you might have seen in the news, we're inviting ...

Re: HAPPY EASTER
Happy Easter... A bit of a damp squib last night in our area, very quiet, some very loud what sounded like homemade fireworks, but nothing as in previous years, even our village had no displays again this year, austerity measures again no doubt, but Souvla will on in our backyard later, looking forw...

Re: ACS couriers
Morning Peter.
Whilst I agree with your post I fear Amazon UK will refuse to send to Cyprus, already they are doing this with many items, and why I try to buy from Amazon De (Germany) who always use UPS, and they do deliver to your door, always!.

Re: Lidl's Strawberries today...
You are touchy Max, a very unnecessary comment by you. I am no gourmet Max but I know for sure that those Lidls berries are bland and very tasteless, they look OK, and I am not on my own with this opinion, my thoughts are, give those British strawberries a try when they are in season, about Wimbledo...

Re: Lidl's Strawberries today...
Maybe Max is because they are not that good, bland almost and tasteless, if you get the chance when they are in season try some British Strawberries, now they do taste good. Also, those the wife purchased from Lidl's went bad within a day and were binned. Sorry, do not feel the need to buy more of t...
