Oh goodness, I could really start to feel sorry for the poorly-pensioned Peyia-Pats. They have so been looking forward to this but it's just going to be 'window shopping' for them, I guess! :(

As for Russians ... none of the shops look exclusive enough.


Maybe the Cypriots should sell more land off to them then.......

I don't know any Cypriots who have sold off land for many years. I have never sold anything. Selling stopped long ago among the people I know. A few developers bought-up some years ago and they are the ones who have built the "enclaves". A lot of land was RoC land too. The big chunks that used to be developed with hundreds of little villas for Brits nowadays remain as big chunks which are bought by Russians for the odd one giant villa or Spa. That's preferable, surely?

When you actually reside in Cyprus you will see the buildings popping up .........I will wager these developments are not dowry houses or for the extended family.......

I used to live in Neo Choria ......when I last went back it was built up .....who sold that land ....read a few sheila Hawkins books or see some of Harry's paintings......
