Paphos People

OK, so how come no-one told me?? I've arranged meetings and everything for today, only to find out it's supposed to be a bank holiday?

And how come the missus is having to work - is this not a "proper" bank holiday or are they just taking advantage of her not asking for it off??

I need answers!!

PMSL ...Did no one tell you ?
I was wondering what you were doing here...
I work 24/7 anyway ....

what I dont understand is why the brass bands have to come out
at 6.00am

Hi.

You are not alone, I'm at work, hoping to get on with a lot today 'cause it should be quiet. Some of the shops are open, the big fruit shop (Russian...although Cypriot owned.) is open too.
Jean.....bought some Activia yogurt there yesterday.

I hate these holdays, I have always worked on them, it beats being at home with the kids although I have had about 5 frantic calls from them this morning looking for things. He's at his mams for coffee. Cypriots like their days' off!

Jill.

So is there anything going on anywhere? I'm bored.

I can tell you all about why its a bank holiday "we've" just done the homework!

Yeah its Greek Independance Day today, I'm at home getting the house ready for the arrival of my sons, so no real day off but not in work tomorrow either

So next Tues is Cyprus National Day, so another week with Tue & Wed off, whahooooooo

I'm going to BBQ over my friend's house.

Haven't had any warning from school that next Tuesday is a bank holiday. Ours had last Friday off as it was western Good Friday, went to school y,day and had today off. Will they have another day off next week ? I don't mind too much as there is no need to get up at that unearthly hour but it would be nice to know
Sarah

So my friend tells me - that next Tuesday is public holiday for Cyprus Independent Day (as Jean has posted above)

Phil has next Tuesday off as a Bank Holiday, and he works for a Cypriot company. So I presume that the schools will be closed, too.

I am supposed to be working, but I am going to change my day so that I can be with Phil. Otherwise he won't do the jobs I want him to.
