Jam – that comforting, sweet substance – a thick mixture made from the pulp and juice of fruit which is boiled with sugar and water. The proportion of sugar and fruit in jam varies according to the type of fruit and its ripeness but it is usually about fifty-fifty. Good jam has a soft, even consistency, a bright deep colour, and an exquisite fruity flavour.

The Cyprus Mail is the only English-language daily newspaper published in Cyprus. It was established in 1945 and today, with its popular and widely-read website, the Cyprus Mail is among the most trusted news sites in Cyprus. The newspaper is not affiliated with any political parties and has always striven to maintain its independence. Over the past 70-plus years, the Cyprus Mail, with a small dedicated team, has covered momentous events in Cyprus’ modern history, chronicling the last gasps of British colonial rule, Cyprus’ truncated independence, the coup and Turkish invasion, and the decades of negotiations to stitch the divided island back together, plus a myriad of scandals, murders, and human interests stories that capture the island and its -people. Observers describe it as politically conservative.
