Post by: tel on April 12, 2009, 10:45:52 AM: The gym was open this morning, although when I looked out of the window there were only 3 cars in the car park.
People have either gone away or think the gym is shut as well.

Post by: Drywhitewine on April 12, 2009, 11:01:24 AM: Plenty of practic available here as bars busy in the village square as weather is glorious! However, Sunday roast on the patio of us ... Water filters available in the village convenient stores and I have spare filters should BM need them. Perhaps Cyprus is not so behind the times after all? Just been to art shop in the Bay (lovely weather - loads of people out walking) and bought a nice lithography for my lounge wall
