Title: Only in Cyprus part ..??
Post by: apc2010 on July 12, 2021, 07:42:43 PM
Before I rant ..I should explain ..I love living here ....but ......some things drive me insane ......like buying stuff ...on the internet nearly all Cypriot ads whether a house or car ...have no price or if the site insists "1euro" .... Angry9: Banghead cussing:

or call/PM ..generally there is a language barrier ..just put the price on ... evil:

So today I see static caravan for sale with land AND a price ....so far so good .....

arrange to see tomorrow .. Thumbs:.sends directions .. Thumbs: arrange time ... Thumbs:  so "OK see you tomorrow"....him .."oh no,,I am not coming" ... Banghead

so can see land and static but not inside ... cussing:...

TBC..........

Right roadworks in all major parts of Paphos ...

"WORKS ON AVE STARTED. NEOF. NIKOLAIDIS IN THE FRAMEWORK OF THE GREAT PROJECT OF GREECE Avenues, E. PALLEKARIDI N. NIKOLAIDI AND GRIVA DIGENI - RELEASE SETTINGS
One of the biggest and most important projects of Paphos, that of the Improvement of Greece Avenue and Parts of Evagora Pallikaridis, Neophytos Nikolaidis and Griva Digeni, total spending of € 9 million, now VAT, enters the course today of the implementation."

The 1st comment is right ..."They could very well have started and finished it in last winter or in past one and half year of lockdown. But no, we gonna do it now in the middle of season. Wow so beautiful 😻 what a smart, hard working and intelligent people."

 ;D
