Paphos People

hi all

well our trip is nearing

and I am trying to sort out what to bring with us

what sort of plugs are used in Cyprus?

are they the same as the uk ?

or the rest of Europe?

also I am going to need a good hairdresses for the peyia region.....otherwise my wild Irish hair will look a right mess without being cut over the next 6 months

does any one know any good hairdressers?

christmas and things

will the shops have all the xmas lights and bits and bobs to decorate our little apartment for the xmas season? or do we need to bring our own?


sorry for all the questions

I am sure to have more ......

but till then

cheers for all the help

maggie

Hiya Maggie

the power supply is the same as the uk ..
3 pin plugs , no need for any adaptors or anything .
yes you can get all the christmas decorations in the shops , same as back home, as regards a
hairdressers in peyia , I cant help you on that one , but there are plenty to choose from ...

Hi Maggie

Plugs - same as UK (if you buy anything with a 2 pin plug you can easily buy adaptors) - the sockets are 3 pin

Christams decorations - available to buy everywhere, and there are some gorgeous ones

Hairdresser in Peyia - sorry, can't help you on that as have never lived in Peyia, but I'm sure someone will be along to help with that question.

Hairdressers.

Best you visit Argos before you come and buy a pair of clippers with several extra number 1 combs on......

However in Paphos, the barber under the Kiniras hotel in the old town does a great job...... I recommend him.

I dread to think how much an M & S Christmas Cake would be over here - if they have them in store before you leave, bring one with you . . . . . . .

hi jean

must be honest

when ever we have xmas'd away in far flung places

I have always taken a small M&S christmas cake with me in my suitcase

as well as daft twinkling xmas earings for wearing on the beach on xmas day

this year will feel diferent though as we are away from home for far longer than our obligatory and normal 2 weeks

so I will look out for the early arival of xmas cakes in the shops before we fly out

cheers for that

maggie

You Kays had M&S Christmas Cakes in last year (they went fast). Possibly some of the other UK import store as well.
If you bring Christmas Cake in a suit case I would double check you're weight limit. Quick check and a lot of the M&S Christmas cakes are about 1kg.

Hairdresses in Peyia - sorry no help either. There are people who live in Peyia post on here, honest.

If you require a Hairdresser Michele as a mobile business give her a ring on 99275754

Pete's Barbers in Peyis is very good - €5. for pensioner's haircut and I think its every 4th or 5th h/cut free, something like that...........


For Hairdresser - Jonathans along the TKR is very good and very popular.
