Ayia Napa

WARNING ! You’re gonna find it pretty hard to leave this fantasy to go back to reality …

They recently refurbished, gave the place a new name, moving into a new era ... Elements; Earth, Wind, Fire, and Water ... Panicos says "it was time to change", I agreed, he continued "but its going to be the home of the fifth element, 'Spirit' ... Always a warm and welcoming spirit, two bars to the right now, so plenty of room to get into the party spirit and boogie in the middle ... That's the spirit !

... a monster on the decks and one of the biggest names on the clubbing and live music festival circuit in Europe ... He'll be rocking Poseidon Beach with his awesome mix, predominantly house, some melodic, some progressive, and a bit of techno, through an awesome sound system, that they can probably hear in Lebanon 😉 ...

A Christmas Storing ?

Christmas is as good an excuse as any to stock up on a few bottles of wine to accompany all that festive fayre.  Perhaps, if you are really lucky a loved one may even treat you to a bottle or case of your favourite tipple as a Christmas gift.  So, how do you go about storing it?
