@geoheyexpat Yes, I know that Phase 2 is better than Phase 1. I've lived in both, 8 years in total. Plus 1 in Aegean Coast. And now I live nearby. Maybe if I knew you back then or the Kiwi GM, I would've stayed there, hahaha.
Before Fusion, it was U-Select! And I prefer it, cause it has products from Tesco.
I've never drank tap water here, but back when I lived in Phase 2 (2008-2012), I installed this water filter on tap, Philips brand, that supposed to last a few months, but within a week or two, I could already see the filter cartridge turned brown. After that 4 years, I got a better filter, so it wasn't really a problem anymore, but still when I think about showering with brown water, it was not a good feeling.
I'm guessing the day you spent 10 hours taping windows was the same day that the windows at my flat back then also leaking, lol.
And yeah, I live in a village house nearby right now. It's great, but beware of the bugs, it could get really frustrating. There's always pros and cons, so it's really up to you.
