And they are idiots too.

The saddest conversation I ever overheard was back in the UK in a gym changing room. Some men were sat there discussing their mail-order brides, and bemoaning the fact that they didn't think the women actually loved them.

Well what did they expect?

https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-46788256 A French writer is being criticised after saying he would be "incapable" of loving a woman aged 50 or above... despite being 50 himself. Yann Moix told Marie Claire magazine he found women of that age "too old". "I prefer younge...

I don't think it feeds Evretou does it? I think it feeds Argaka. There is certainly a pipe between the two.

And just had a powercut as a result. Rather sweet. Had to resort to playing my old guitar until the power came back.

Storm hasn't gone yet. Just had more lightning over Polemi.

Yep, still raining too.

The weather matrix (with data still inexplicably from Weather Underground) tells a different story:

And it looks like there may be snow in Polemi tomorrow!

It is a beautiful sight in the snow. Bloody cold though.

We were at the dentist when it happened, but observed what looked like piles of snow on the back road into Polemi.

Played some pooh sticks on the new river.

https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-india-46778879 Indian scientists have hit out at speakers at a major science conference for making irrational claims.

Yesterday (Saturday 5th Jan) we took our annual visit to the Troodos, for fun in the snow. It was really cold so if you are planning a visit wrap up warm, and don't forget a carrot for your snowman. Also, check first, because according to the latest news (Sunday 6th Jan @4PM), the roads are now clos...

The renovated Old Town has a lot more ramps and wheelchair-friendly curbs.

Interesting. I think HiC had a problem viewing a facebook vid on an Apple too. Can you try a different browser?

You don't need to be on facebook to view it. The line is part of the opening animation sequence.

Glad you liked it. There is more footage but snow kept landing on the lens so it got more distorted. I will try and salvage the bit where we went through Troodos Village though, as people will find that interesting. As I said on fb, I forgot to put my gloves on while I filmed this, and my hands near...

That sounds delicious.

A film of our trip to Troodos yesterday. It was worth freezing my hands off for.

I don't know the laws. I would imagine beachcombing wouldn't be frowned upon but if you took one up near Kouklia or somewhere like that it would probably not go down well. We saw somebody using one in a field near Melandra once. That's about it though. I have only ever used our one in the back garde...

I don't even think it is wrong. Ok, at face value it is. But I think the film isn't supposed to be taken at face value, it is showing what the kid dreamed of doing. If it was a news report, then I would agree completely. But this is a multimedia scream, as opposed to reality, if you see what I mean....
