Title: Only in Cyprus Again ....
Post by: apc2010 on May 02, 2023, 01:39:54 PM
So in their great wisdom ..Cyprus decided to change the document process for UK nationals getting married here this year ...(something about letter of non ompl..//%* ) ..this means brides had to find a solictor in Uk and paying dosh ....for this extra paperwork ...

this has been causing huge problems ....so less than a month into the season ..they have scrapped it......... Thumbs:   noooo: 

(hopefully because the fall in bookings ? )...

But this also means that 100s of brides to be have already spent fortunes on paperwork they no longer need .... noooo:

add to the fact most of them are "dumber than a box of frogs" ..you can imagine the confusion now... ;D ;D ;D ..

The chat rooms are bedlam ... lol:

To be fair, they're doing an amazing job of resurfacing the Pafos >>> Limassol motorway every night!  It is quite an operation!  eeek:

China!  lol: lol: lol:

Well, I can't comment on the longevity at this stage but resurfacing ~5 miles a night and having it open the next day is quite impressive!

One of the wedding venues here is a rustic old place in the middle of nowhere where ..(actually there tonight ) …

Last time I noticed a lone bike rack near the venue to lock your bike ….I asked the venue ..

They hadn’t even noticed them …turns out the gubberment put it there …

In 15 years of going there I have never seen a cyclist on that road ..it’s steep and the road basically only services the local villages …the locals do NOT cycle .. noooo:
