Contacts for Pool Maintenance

Does anybody have contact details of companies carrying out pool maintenance in the Peyia area. What would be a reasonable price for maintaining a 10 x 5m pool on a complex including chemicals and VAT? Pool equipment is bog standard with no added ionisers etc. Chlorine granules, PH+, PH- would be th...

Re: Brexit negotiation stance - agreed by all 27 member in 15 minutes

What Mr Barnier just said...is this: ‘We’re going to enter a negotiation, you must commit in advance to everything we want from you, without us committing to giving you anything back. When you have given us a full commitment on everything we want, then at some point with the clock ticking beyond th...

Re: Brexit negotiation stance - agreed by all 27 member in 15 minutes

So The Times is carrying an article today which states that our Prime Minister cannot lead the Brexit negotiations and cannot talk to the other EU leaders about Brexit matters. Apparently, she is only 'allowed' to talk to Michel Barnier: So if I read this correct they are saying that TM cannot lead ...

Re: Easyjet 8935 May 1st 2017 nightmare.

But what else could the pilot do? And a delay of 3hrs 45 minutes will mean your son gets compensation. I would have been annoyed if the delay had been 2hrs 45 minutes. Not sure about the compensation thing. However, If I were a passenger on EasyJet and suffering from a similar possible life-threate...

Re: German investors redistribute resources following Brexit

So 'Happy In Cyprus' is actually happy in Cyprus. Who would have thought it from his Brexit postings. As he has no intention of returning to UK you would thought he would rather be expounding the positive side of remaining within the EU rather than the negative side of the UK leaving. Maybe its beca...

Posturing has/is taking place on both sides. One side is not better or worse than the other in this. Let's see what happens when negotiations start.

Re: Russia ‘knew in advance’ of Syrian chemical weapons attack

That is what I meant by the 'shoot first ask questions comment' earlier...

Really HIC you should be more discerning in your choice of evidence support. And you need to engage brain before mouth. The BBC has not claimed anything; they are merely the reporter (messenger). Read the article again, it says: "Last week, the Organisation for the Prohibition of Chemical Weap...

Re: Russia ‘knew in advance’ of Syrian chemical weapons attack

There is no proof of who conducted the gas attack. Any one of about five parties may have done it. It is easy to blame any one of them, as the US blamed Assad, without any definitive proof. There is plenty of 'fake truth' floating around, much speculation and not a milligram of proof. For those who...
