we never owned Cyprus but it was a British protectorat for many years and is still a comonweath country
I agree Brian - "owned" is not the right word.
Britain was a Protectorate of Cyprus until 1914 and proclaimed it a Crown Colony in 1925.

this question comes up at least twice a year the answer hasnt changed.. MOST but NOT ALL accomodation on the southern part of Cyprus uses english 3 pin BUT there are quite a few places i have been to ( mainly away from the Pafos area which have euro 2pin and earth so we always carry an addaptor it cost little weighs nothing so i wont take the chance without it

can you buy an adapter to plug the two pin plugs in to like the insect repelants as all mine are two pin ones
Yes Masureenc,
You will find adapters in nearly all the supermarkets over there,
Matalan here at home sells them or just take some shaver plugs thats what i used for my mossie adapters.
