Self explanatory;



My abode is in Lapta, Three hundred metres-ish away in Karsiyaka they had uninterrupted leccy.



How?



Are they on a different grid?



Do they pay their bills?



Genuinely interested.

Seemingly Karsiyaka gets its leccy from Guzelyurt direction so was not so badly affected. I am happy about that as I live in Karsiyaka!

Perhaps the supply in Karsiaka goes to the Army bases up the mountain !!!!!

newscoop,



we did have minor cuts in Karsiyaka but only lasted in total a few hours. Jessics still did a roaring trade though!

I live in Karsiyaka but close to the Lapta border and we had the full on 22 hour cut. It was very annoying to say the least to look out and see Karsiyaka village lit up like a Christmas tree whilst we were in darkness but hey ho, that's the way the cookie crumbles.

I live in Karsiyaka, and i was one of he fortunate. To be honest i thought it was because perhaps most of the leccy workers lived here...



Oh well, my condolences to all of those that have suffered

Life without TV or internet, I think its quite romantic an open fire or gas fire. Reading and then going to bed by candlelight



There are other things in life

The head of the union and his men it is said sabbotaged the electricity company in essentepe and the government brought in some men from the other electricity plant on the island under police guard to fix the place in essentepe.

I hope they jail the head of the union,how dare he play with the lives of people of cyprus.



Their was an council of minister's decision on thursday or friday making it illegal for these guy's to strike,the union man and his soldier's said their was problem's with the truffles or inside the electricity plant in essentepe that is why the power to the island was going off !

He tell's better joke's than laurel & hardy !
