Elderly man locked himself in the bell tower of Ag. Spyridon church, near Antico café on Lithostrotou, earlier this morning. Some concern that he'd jump but eventually talked down.

Allegedly a dispute between two Greek neighbours in Svoronata has resulted in the pet dog of one being killed and dumped by the other.

Pets at Home recalls food after cats 'collapse'

Pets at Home is recalling AVA dry cat food after three cats became ill.

The pets "exhibited symptoms of sudden collapse, fitting, widespread twitching and general unsteadiness" the firm said, after consuming the biscuits from their range aimed at senior and neutered cats.

The level of thiamine (vitamin B1) in the cat food listed was much lower than the recipe specified.

Pets at Home said customers would be given a full refund.

Why your car servicing costs could be about to rise

...your car's manufacturer probably knows where you've been, how fast you drove, and how soon you're likely to need a service.

And it wants to turn this knowledge in to money.

No such thing as 'finders keepers', police warn after shopper is charged with theft for pocketing £20 she found lying on shop floor

There is no such thing as 'finders keepers', police have warned, after they prosecuted a shopper who pocketed £20 she found lying on a shop floor.

Nicole Bailey did not imagine she was breaking the law when she picked up the cash she found on the floor while out shopping.

But the 23-year-old landed herself in court after CCTV cameras caught her picking up the bank note another customer had dropped just minutes earlier.

Now police have warned people to discard the old adage "finders keepers", saying it is a crime to keep money or goods someone else has lost.
