Re: Feral cats??
Some numbers to dwell on (from a cat welfare organisation): Cyprus has a cat population of around 1.5 million. Cats neutered per year are around 3000. Cats left to breed are around 1.497 million. The average cat has 1-8 kittens per litter and 2 - 3 litters per year. This results is a maximum of 24 k...

Re: British husband to face murder charges after all
Doctors have helped people over the final hurdle for 100s of years, and continue to do so. Having responsible legislation would legalise this and build in the necessary checks and balances.

Re: British husband to face murder charges after all
Whilst I am a supporter of mercy killing, I do realise that Cyprus, along with most countries including the UK, do not Recognise this in law. If Mr Hunter's story is true then I have great sympathy with him. However, he planned to kill his wife and then carried out his plan. That in law is murder, a...

Re: Paphos Old Town Walking Tour - Part 1
Good video. I love walking around the old town in the area you have shown. In the evenings it is full of people with lots of street cafes open etc.
I think, but may be wrong, that the posts you suggest are there to hold up the market roof are actually street lamps.

Prescription charges
Before I go to my usual pharmacy and possibly cause an argument, I thought I had better seek views from you good people. Recently I went to my pharmacy to get my usual prescription. Usually I just pay what they ask and get on with my day. However, I had need to check my Gesy beneficiary record and n...

Re: Banksy street artist (Am I missing something)
Banksy has a team of people working with him, using pre-cut stencils etc. It takes them just a couple of minutes to do the job and then beetle off.

Re: Ben Fogle's Lost Worlds - Cyprus
An excellent programme. Unfortunately the programme length meant that it had to skim the surface of a very complex situation.

You select your parking spot by parking in it. Then you pay, much as you do now.

Re: British man dies after being run over by American driver in Peyia
Yes Aargent, that was indeed him. He still played although arthritis reduced his ability and prevented him being in bands. I was only chatting to him on Monday. A nice guy and a sad loss.

Re: Cyprus Driving
I enjoy driving in Cyprus, much more than driving in the UK. I think people have the view that the Cypriots should drive like the British. However, the fact is they drive like Cypriots drive. It's very easy to criticise them in the "certain knowledge" that the British way is always the bes...

Re: Paphos Municipal Market
The revamp was very well done. The whole area now looks fresh and new. I often wander around that area and always find something I'd not seen before.

Re: Induction Hobs and Phase 3 electricity
For information, if you look at your electricity bill you will see an entry called Load Ent./Fuse. Its on top left section under your account number. Mine says 30 AMP 3-ph, which means I have 3-phase. If yours says xx AMP 1-ph, then you have single phase.

Re: The Queen’s state funeral.
I question the wisdom of having a lavish state funeral, paid for by the tax payer, at a time when so many people are having difficulties making ends meet. I would have thought a simpler affair would be more in tune with today's UK.

Is it automatic that cars go into bond, and cant be used when the named owner pops off? Both our cars are in my name at present.
