Hi Papaya,

Hope you enjoy your stay here in Penang. Read your complaint about the installation of Astro. Similarly, they took forever to install for me few months back, so I called in and gave them a scold (a light scold will be good enough  ) Ppl here like to have their own sweet time, just don't let them get too spoilt!

I find Penang still charming after all these years, foods still tasty, life pace still acceptable (not too fast not too slow), but the traffic is a real nuisance. Roads too small, too many motorcycles, and the attitudes of some motorists....arrgghh...what should i say!!

Cheers Sunflower.  After enduring almost 3 years of Phuket driving, Penang is nothing to fret about, believe me.  Anyways... a bit off topic <oops>

Scott, you mentioned Cyprus (also off topic by the way  , heh heh).  Have friends with a retirement home there and apparently the cost of living has absolutely shot up in recent years with quite a lot of Brits leaving.  I am told that it's more expensive than UK now.  But the consequence of this is a glut of houses for sale at reduced prices.
