Living the dream - Our villa is for sale

November 25

- Joan and I have been struggling to find material for the bedroom curtains, lots of floral designs etc but not what we wanted. This house is much more modern and light than anything we have had before, so we wanted to keep it simple and all three bedrooms the same. We had exhausted the curtain shops in Kyrenia, so today it was off to Nicosia. We had started to give up hope there as well, until Joan remembered that there was a big material stall/shop in the indoor market area. There we found just what we wanted, there are four windows in total, each 2.20 meters wide and 2 meters drop. A nice heavy weight material made to measure, just ready to hang for £152.00 in total. The price was nice, but when I asked how long before they were ready, the guy said come and pick them up tomorrow lunchtime. This is Cyprus and every day things like that serve to remind you what an amazing island it is.
