Kibkom North Cyprus Forum

Any ideas where I can buy fold up walking stick thank you.

Unless things have changed a friend couldn't get one there so I brought one over for her, I have one I don't use where do you live?

That is right. The friend was me, and although I have been round several medical suppliers in North Cyprus for other items . I have still never seen a folding walking stick here. so I am still using Woodspecke"s and suggest you take advantage of kind offer, Davdee

Thank you Karsiyaka left mine on trolly at Airport , very kind of you.

Sent you a private message Davedee

Sadly, we have never been able to obtain one, North or South. There is a fortune for anyone prepared to get them shipped here. Buys them from medical shops in UK, they are less VAT, which is a bonus.

Did you get my pm davedee?

Hi yes and thank you for your kind offer,however I am returning to UK tomorrow and will get a couple more and take more care of them this time ,thanks again.

I have 2 if anyone would like one I will bring them next week.

Anyone want one if not I will leave them at home

They hardly weigh a thing and not everyone is a Kibcomer. Perhaps you can bring them in any case?

I am still using the one you kindly brought me some time ago, but it you are coming and have some I will keep one for myself as a spare., and can hold on to the other until someone else needs it. PS getting a scooter makes it more necesssary to have folding as they do not come with holders for full sticks. Otherwise what about Cheshire Homes - they loan (on donation) walking equipment etc. I can introduce you when you get here Woodspeckie

I will bring them the latest ones are aluminium and are very light but strong.

woodspeckie where did you get the newest ones,so I can get a couple ,and thanks again for your very kind offer.

This may be off the mark but in Famagusta old town there is a disability aids shop, and they have a couple of delivery vans too.

To find them take harbour road past the huge bronze monument and then take the first road into the city wall.

Through the arch turn left, park in the first car park on the left - about 50 metres, and the shop is opposite.

Will take my folder with me next time I am over in March !

I got it in a local shop for £3.99 they are on Amazon for £5.39 free delivery, plain colours and florals, they are the aluminium ones.
