I was taking to one of the senior guys at Lapta Belediyese 3 weeks ago and suggested to him that they should publish an English translation of the water bill in the local newspaper. I got my latest copy of the paper today and they have done it. Full marks Lapta! So cut it out and keep it and you will always be able to understand your bill in future.

Now how to persuade them to print a translation of Kibtek's bill?

...and the driving licence application

...and..........

Oh no Marion, it's the highlight of my day when I get to read the paper! I even sent the last one to my son in the US

There was a translation of the electricity bill in Cyprus Today many moons ago. I have a copy somewhere but I don't think it will scan very well. I will have a look.

@ msg 1, Jovial_John: A downloadable application form (driving licence) has been available on my web site for quite some time - for free and in Turkish with an English translation! OK, here's the link again:

Hello harita, Yes I have and I can, I hae lived here for 3 year's and have taken some lesson's

and now learn more from my Turkish mate's??????? and I can tell you that you get a lot of respect from the Turk Cyp's and a lot more help???? because it is hard to learn a language but when you are living in the country you can speak every day and it soon fall's into place!!!!!!!! and it's fun!
