I could never get myself to write Paphos any different. The buggers have also changed Larnaca. They write it with a k instead of c. I think it is ridiculous.

I have to agree that the use of "th" annoys me even more than the "f"!!

The reputation of Stroumbi the Great is of the utmost importance to me !!
I hereby publicly declare that I shall make up your loss on my next visit to Cyprus , I can not stand by and see the good name of Stroumbi The Great tarnished over such an amount of money :lol: :lol:

LONG MAY STROUMBI THE GREAT CONTINUE TO BE THE CENTRE OF THE UNIVERSE :lol:


I think it will be difficult to be the centre of the Universe
as it lies in a dip.

But i must congratulate the Mayor of Strumbi as a couple
of years ago he organised a festival and bought
Georgos Margaritis to sing and it was quite lovely.
He is also doing well with all the icons on the walls on the main road.
Send him my regards
