In most households both people work Simon (bit like the UK) and the salaries I mentioned are for unskilled persons. Its still a great City to live in.
I'm lucky I suppose I already have my flat in Nicosia with no mortgage plus i'm paid UK rates.
Eating out is about the same as other areas but with a lot higher standard of food and service. Beer is.... well it doesnt really matter we'd still buy it anyway eh
