Wordle 347 3/6 ⬜🟩⬜🟩⬜ 🟩🟩🟩🟩⬜ 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 This is not a cheat! The above 5/6 is my real response. How did I get this? I obeyed the instructions to use the NYTimes website, instead of the Paphoslife one that I had used in the previous response. I used a different starter word but made the same error on the pe...

Re: Getting harder to retire here

I suggest that some of you are indeed shortsighted without bothering Firefly. This document is not law, is not a bill but is simply a talking point about where to start on the subject. There are more holes in the wording that it would never get to open discussion beyond a pseudo-working committee, l...

Re: Solar Cat Repeller

How do you deal with solar cats? My guess is to chase them with solar dogs. Find a medium-sized feral dog with a good bark and let it roam in the garden: there should be no difficulty because statistically there are several hundred thousand of them wandering around the country. Remember to feed it w...

Re: Petrol prices to reach €2 per litre

I don't know whether it is still the case but I well remember that driving down the wrong side of a motorway or dual carriageway was a daily event in Switzerland, literally daily as it averaged over 300 cases per year. I couldn't understand it then but the signage on the exit roads from the motorway...

Re: Petrol prices to reach €2 per litre

To make it clear, I was forced to stop driving by the insurance company I had been using for 25 years. No insurance = no driving, it's as simple as that. Apparently, some insurance companies impose their own age limit for fully comprehensive. I still have a valid driving licence. I don't really know...

Re: Petrol prices to reach €2 per litre

No problem! I'm no longer permitted to drive for reason of age! Of course, paying somebody to transport me more than it would have done if I were still able to use my car!

Re: The hidden culprit behind rising dust ...

Sorry, Jeba, I cannot agree with you. The dust particles from muddy roads are harmless because their sheer mass settles rapidly. The real damage of dust is caused by much finer particles. What we are talking about is essentially dust which causes physiological damage to the respiratory system. Most ...

Re: NO SWALLOWS

No problem in the middle of the island. They have been breeding like rabbits and the sky is full of them. I suggest that the excessive use of insecticides may reduce the numbers because the birds must feed on flying insects.

Re: The EU’s €210bn plan is far-reaching but Cyprus is far behind

On the whole, I agree with CM 47. My own experience of how the EAC is able to delay the introduction of new environmental projects is one of persistence. I decided on a rooftop system in 2019 and started the ball rolling in December of that year. Guess what? In May 2022 I am still not connected, alt...
