Morning all. Just off out but will post later. Jeff, I've been to Paphos before it became too 'touristy'. Great place.

Sorry to see of your problem with Dabs. I'm afraid I follow the philosphy that cash is king. The only credit I have is my plastic which gets paid off as soon as I get the bill. There is a great deal of comfort to be gained from being able to say 'I don't owe anybody anything', although I know it is not the modern way.

One thing I remember about Cyprus is being able to sit in the sun with a glass of wine watching the storms raging over the tops of the Troodos Mountains. Absolutely great.
I'm off work for this coming week. When I get back our network should all have been changed, new workstations, new servers and operating systems. It'll be impossible to find all my files and set my desktop up as it was, oh well, that's progress.
Just for now, it's feet up in the Cafe, glass of something fizzy and maybe doze off for a while.

Socs...depends what you mean by "in"?
Don't play cricket anymore but then again, I was usually out.
"In" the wotsit?..... My normal state of affairs with mrs.lw, just the depth that varies..
"In" the Inn...very frequently but not so much the Cafe Inn.
Sad to say I spend much more time now back on the old channel which to be truthful I find quicker and slicker but I do miss the cafe banter.
Still look in here daily but will probably stop when freebie runs out.
I never did find out what happened on the other channel, how and why that cafe closed...Was it closed overnight so to speak?
I was incommunicado for a period of about six weeks when moving over here before we got a phone etc. and when we did everything had changed, luckily I had already got this channel registered so could continue but am a little dissapointed in the set-up.
Jeff..I tested my system at about the same time, working ok so went back to kip.

Two things spring to mind.
One, you shouldn't be in your office on a Sunday.
Two, if you are in your office you shouldn't be day dreaming looking out of your window, LOL.
I used to visit up there quite frequently, Gresham Street, is it still there or has it been recycled?

TIM ::Today England, last thursday SA! I do think this test is one of the best since the Botham test when we licked the Aussies, Flintoff was a revelation today, just a shame he didn't get those five extra runs.
Seriously tho', when I was in UK in July my daughters fella had got me a England rugby cap plus England cricket cap and a couple of English cross of St George flags.
When in UK I supported SA, indeed went to the 1st test 1st day wearing my SA golf cap just to wind my chums up but when over here I fly the flags out on my balcony so everyone coming up the fairway cannot miss seeing them, plus I have a banner on my golf buggy...basically I like winding folk up...in fairness here they take it better than at home wqhere I was called a traitor...lol..
The real fun starts next month with the Rugby World Cup 'cos that they really take seriously and they hate to admit that England have a great chance.
It being my main old sport, I too take it seriously so the cap will be firmly in place and dulcet tones of "Sweey Chariot" will echo out across the nearby green...especially when they're putting!!!

I'll just settle in the corner here where I can see my monitor so that I can watch my portfolio go blue and have my full English breakfast.
