Re: Google Chrome
Many of us went over to Chrome several years ago, I find it easy enough to use and for sure I am no expert, works well and it seems a little faster?

Re: Selling car for cash
Garry is correct. You will either need to be on Cyprus or use maybe your lawyer, as you will need to be there in person to sell a car here, I have sold on several cars, the buyer unless a trader will also need an Insurance cover note. Not as easy to do the deal as in the UK. You would also need to s...

Re: Vax Carpet Cleaner
Really Trev?, it was meant to be light-hearted. :D 70c would melt my rugs. This would bring the colour back! The 70 Celsius to Fahrenheit formula is: [°F] = ([70] x 9 ⁄ 5) + 32. Therefore, we get: 70 C to F = 158 °F 70 °C to °F = 158 Fahrenheit 70 C in F = 158 degrees Fahrenheit 70 degrees Celsius t...

Re: Exchange Rate
I agree with that last post, I use Transferwise a debit card system, you can get 2K a day, it is excellent and very fast, a matter of hours sometimes, but if you are on holiday or a short visit you need cash on the day, two options are a bank or as posted local shop type cash agents. www.transferwis...

Re: Vax Carpet Cleaner
I use a Vax carpet cleaner, I use a local brand of chemicals from One Stop DIY it worked OK, was half the price of online Vax products, our rugs look good, in fact just done them and put away for next winter. This will be the third year of using local cleaning products in the Vax. Just my opinion, ...

Re: New Laptop
Both my HP laptop and my Desktop PC have SSD cards fitted,(Windows 10 on both) had them for some time, the laptop is fitted on a carrier where the disc drive was fitted, easy to fit, they do make startups very fast, worth the money I feel. I now have to use a separate disc drive on my Laptop, no pr...

Re: Tv licence
Hudswell there is no Cypriot TV licence now, before you arrived here we all paid for it with our electricity bill, certain TV companies complained that they got none of it fee, so the TV fee (licence) was abolished, as posted. Jo I disagree, live TV is a must if like millions of us you like sport. L...

Re: MEU3 again!
Yesterday we popped into the Immigration office just to make sure we had or will have all the details they require, this is the very latest list, should you like us be handling it without an agent. By the way, there were 4 couples in the queue at 10.30am.

Re: Tv licence
There is no TV Licence for Cypriot TV now as it has gone digital many years ago, so you would pay the TV provider, and yes I particularly like BBC TV drama, I pay for a couple of IPTV servers and very happy to do so, we do not all prop up bars ;), so Streaming TV for ex-pats is important I feel, cer...

Re: MEU3 again!
We have an appointment for this Friday, saying 12.30pm and told by the lady Notary to be very patient, I think we will now wait until a much later date to try and get this new requirement (if indeed it is needed), I remeber members of CL saying you needed an agent or Lawyer to get your title deeds, ...

Re: Selling car for cash
A&N car sales in Tremithousa do, but any car dealer will try and give you a price, you would get more selling privately of course, try the sale section on this forum, do add photos.

Honestly, do you all stay up watching this total rubbish?, the voting has for many years been very political, apart from ABBA who can remember the winners? go to bed is the best option.

Re: Cyprus Visa for staying over 90 days.
Thanks for the update Lloyd. Gwenny services, she will charge you about €150 each (so I was told) and you will still have to attend the Immigration office and pay their charges, if she can fast track this I do not know, I was talking to a local couple about this service, it should be as the list the...
