Wendy,

I've just had the lecky bill for the last 2 months, €528, that's for a 5 bed house, running the pool pump for 8 hours a day, using very little air con. There are 4 adults and 2 kids in our house.

Water, if you are sensible, works out at about €20-30 every 2 months.

Telephone, can't really say, cos we don't have permissions for our house we can't get a land line. We just use our mobile which is cheap in comparison to the UK, even when phoning abroad.

Satellite, there are lots of different packages you can get. If your dish is big enough you can pick up UK TV, BBC PRIME seems to be popular. We kept our Subscription on in the UK, so use that, it works fine, though we can't get BBC or ITV (we'd need a 5m dish), if your towards Paphos, you can get away with a smaller dish.
