hi guys

i spend most of my year between cyprus and turkey, i love both countries and only spend 2 hours traveling between the two places not trying to get you jealous or anything!!!! lol

mark spoke to family last night and they said it had been quite pleasant up until last week where now it is raining but not so cold during the day but quite nippy at night especially girne side, same here in marmaris turkey raining most of the day not cold but at night quite cold but hey still not as cold and wet as the u.k (sorry i had to put that in!!!) lol

regards to all

Quite a lot of rain the last week, cloudy but definitely not cold. Bit chilly at night but still haven't had to put on heating or wear a coat! Weather today is lovely - loads of sun and just a few clouds. Only been out here since the summer, this feels like spring in England, so haven't got into the boots and roll-neck jumpers yet - but the locals have!!

Hi after reading this thread thought I would work out how long we have spent in Cyprus over the last 3 years and it is 60% of the time. The only down side to it is the Uk still wants 100% bills paying for 40% of time spent here.

I see the weather today hit 22 degrees in Cyprus and it looks like the UK is heading for a cold snap with temps staying just above Zero. I've got the right hump now :-(

oh well, least I am off to Barcelona for two days albeit work (and will be couped up in an office), not pleasure

hi mark

have a nice time in barcelona, it mite be freezing in the u.k and not so bad in cyprus but here in turkey at the moment it is chucking it down but not cold, this is to go with the bad rain both cyprus and turkey had a couple of weeks ago ive provided a link for you to see how bad it was here in marmaris

my god Erkan, that's pretty heavy. Hope you have a decent umbrella mate That wasn't your bus was it?

So Cyprus also had lots of rain. Mind you they need it. Do they have many reservoirs?



So far, only two people living in Cyprus full time

Watched the vid Erkan - terrible. Apparently parts of Lefkoşa were like that too, although I was up there when we had the bad rain (round the Government Offices area) and didn't see anything like that! And the Girne area wasn't under too much water at all!!
