Hi

I was wondering if there is anyone who will be driving from or through Lapta at around 6.30/7am this Friday 31st January morning? Or if not, what time does the Dolmus Bus start up from Lapta?

Reason I ask is that me and a person who lives in Lapta have a flight to catch from Ercan at 09.40 on Friday, and whilst I have a car that I plan to leave at the airport for a couple of days, the person in Lapta does not, and I am of the opinion that they are going to ask me to pick them up, or just assume I will pick them up! This is a trek for me as over the other side of Girne and I have family and things my end to sort out too!

I am already in dog house today for not collecting and driving to Nicosia and back for us to sort out some paperwork as someone in-house at the relevant ministry has offered to do mine for me, but I am not a taxi service and having to drive from where I am to Lapta and back past where I live to get to the airport, would likely add an hour to my journey time! I could collect from central Girne, or China Bazaar would be even better.

This person is a very senior citizen and will have a cat with him, secured in a cage, and a suitcase. He also has my airline ticket for me and my cat!

If anyone has any info/offers, I would be grateful.

OK so how much would a taxi be from "Flippers" in Lapta (house close by) to "China Bazaar? And can anyone recommend a reliable local Lapta taxi that this man can contact today regarding this?

So simple, and yet as I fully expected I am now getting another earful at 02.30 this morning .

Hi
I am unsure of what time the dolmus start, maybe 6am? Defo they have started by 7am not sure if this would be too late?

With regards to a taxi, call Huseyin 0533 8252719. He speaks some english and works from the lapta strip. I am sure he can help!
