Hi,  would appreciate recommendation for a company that ships a couple of small packages from Cyprus to UK.  Thanks

I'd like to grow my own rhubarb. Does anyone know if it grows well here (I have very good soil). If so does anyone then know where I can get a crown or a cutting from one or what it's called in Greek so I can ask my local garden centre? There, now that's more interesting than second hand sofa's now isn't it? Kolossi based, but occasionally trot out to Paphos.

Looking for the above item to buy.

We're planning on moving to Cyprus this summer. We'll be spending the Easter vacation during which we'll be visiting a couple of schools and deciding whether Larnaca or Limassol is right for us.We'd like to check out apartment for rent as well during this time. Apartments through agents come and go quickly it seems, so we'd like to hear from any expats who know they'll be leaving this summer and would be willing for us to check out their apartment during the Easter vacation.We're looking for a place within walking distance (max 20 mins walk) of the sea. All other criteria are negotiable.If you'd like to send advice regarding the pros an cons or Larnaca vs Limassol, I'd be happy to read that too.thank you

Hello, I am looking for a reliable house cleaner in Larnaca

Hi, I've currently got Cyta's fixed line and 8MB netrunner service all up and running for over a year and the service seems to be very reliable. However I'm tempted to switch over to Primetel or MTN Fixed (ex OTEnet I think) as they both cost far less than the Cyta charges and are available in my area. My only concern are stories I've heard about Primetel's connection being rather unreliable/slow since they did the "double speed" upgrade and not being able to find any reports with regard to MTN's fixed service. Many people have told me Cyta is the only reliable provider?! Is it a case of better the devil you know and sticking with Cyta or are my concerns unfounded? I'd really appreciate hearing any users opinions about Primetel or MTN Fixed :-) Thanks in advance! Michael

Came home today to find that TV system we subscribed to has been cut.  Believe this to be 'dreambox' system.  Those who run system have been arrested for running illegal system.    Friends of ours still have their TV systems which have been supplied by other companies.  Does it mean these will be cut too.  If system illegal, I for one would prefer to pay more and have TV system than loose all.
