The Whitest Whites

It’s the last week in June which means solely one thing. Wimbledon has arrived! It’s the half a month in the yr where people decide to find their tennis rackets, find their whitest whites and take on the inescapable showers to exercise their back hand and volley. Man and Van Wimbledon is devoted to giving out the most efficient and economical service purchasable even when SW19 stuffed with tourists. Man and Vans, London’s leading light removal service, is situated in South West London and actually enjoys helping its neighbours with any light removals they may have. Man with Van Wimbledon could be too busy to take to the courts this summer but here at Man and Vans headquarters we’re exceedingly thrilled about Wimbledon’s new Centre Court Ceiling. Although Man with Van Wimbledon will get down to work in the rain, Rafael, Roger and Andy have never been too keen to brave heavy rain. Fortunately this yr there’ll be no need for Cliff Richards’ services as, from the 17th May, Wimbledon Lawn Tennis Association has been using its new retractable roof. Health and Safety tests on the court were borne by the infamous Andre Agassi, Steffi Graf, Tim Henman and Kim Clijsters, who took part in an exhibition game of mixed doubles as the timely rain dabbed the roof as it shut.

A Greek Tradition

Cyprus has been home to many cultures over the ages, but to most of us simply know it as a great hotspot, which has made it a very popular destination with tourists, with over 2.4 million visiting the republic. Cyprus basks is more than 330 clorious days of sun each year, which has given it the name The Island of the Sun. There is no shortage of travel companies able to arrange Cyprus holidays and budget airlines such as Easyjet offering routes to Paphos and Larnaca, getting there is cheaper than ever.

While attracting visitors from around the world, most of them tend to be Europeans. In recent years Russians and Poles have become poolside regulars alongside the French, Germans and, of course, us Brits.. One of the main reasons why there is such a heavy presence of Brits in Cyprus is because of the positioning of the British Armed forces in the southern Greek part of the island. The UK retains a military base in order to have a gateway for forces to the Middle East. As such the Brits are now almost as local and the locals, and this has in turned resulted in areas that are less traditional and more contemporary in culture. From English being spoken everywhere you go, to driving on the left side of the road. No doubt the similarity to the UK makes us Brits feel more at home, but in a more favourable climate.

For many reading this, the prospect of taking a holiday away from England only to be greeted at the airport by a hire car representative hailing from Croydon and being served an authentic Mediterranean dish of steak and chips will not appeal. However, this side of Cyprus, that continues to attract millions of tourists year after year, is only one aspect of the island and is concentrated around the tourist hotspots of Paphos, Larnaca and Ayia Napa. As soon as you leave the packaged paradise and clubbers haven of these areas and hit the road the real country reveals itself.

If your fancy cooling off, and seeing something different take a trip up to the Troodos Mountains. In the heart of the mountains you will find the Kykkos monastery, a UNESCO world heritage site since 1998. Housing art and exhibits on ancient Greece, the monastery has the twin function of being a museum for visitors and a practising monastery lived in by worshiping monks. If you are a wine lover, there are treats in store for you. A daytrip to the Troodos Mountains can be a welcome change from the beach and with overnight accommodation available in many of the authentic villages dotted about; you might want to spend a few days here sampling another side of Cyprus.
