Re: Tax form 2019

We sent our email to Ms Michael on 29 August 2019 and (despite a follow-up prompt) received neither a reply nor acknowledgement. We've just sent it again. Fingers crossed. Just got a reply with attached official documents for both of us stating we are exempt from GESY taxation for 4 years. 55 minute...

Re: Beauty Shop closing down

The notice that they're closing down has been on the entrance door for quite some time now. It will be a shame to see them close down but I suspect other outlets will open in the fullness of time. There are a lot of younger ex-pats moving over......

Re: Rhuematologist recommendation

I'm also sticking with him, like Sadie, as he's made the correct diagnosis and acted very promptly, sending me for lots of tests. His treatment to date has got me my life back after months of lying on the bed in pain. I find it strange that I'm defending him as I felt similarly to mike strand 2 whe...

Blackfriars Wood Dye

Many years ago One Stop used to stock Blackfriars wood dye in a variety of colours. We bought the Light Oak and Teak and mixed them together, and until recently that was all we needed to keep our front door looking good. We can't seem to find it anywhere in Paphos now so if anyone comes across it I'...

Re: MRI Payment via Gesy?

Thank you, we have no objection to paying at all, but it caught us on the hop at the clinic as we had not been advised beforehand.

However, the manager of the clinic was more than happy to receive cash!

MRI Payment via Gesy?

I'm going for an MRI later this month. The doctor I am registered with is under Gesy. However I have heard that under certain conditions the patient has to pay a proportion of the cost towards certain procedures. For example I recently had to pay towards the cost of hiring an operating theatre at a ...

If you have a holiday home here in Cyprus, and spend your 'allowed' time in it each year, but are resident in the UK, will you need an MEU1 when Brexit finally occurs?
