Maybe bignick or Zorba might have an idea of the origin of this dish?
I believe the photo was taken somewhere in Paphos/Cyprus..

Do you have to reinforce your house before you can put that baby on the roof?

BBC Scotland are about to move to their new headquarters on the Clyde riverside.

You should see the size of the dishes they have on the roof!

If I get a chance I'll take some pictures.

Great post.

Funnily enough I was in working Paphos recently ,and as i was driving through a village I saw a couple of these dishes in a field near a house.Looks like they were stored there.I quickly drove in and took a couple of photos also but havent had the film developed and forgot all about it.It must be a 4.5 .Obviously the one you saw was put up by Zade,who operates in Paphos.
