The most of them (UK Cypriots) are still living with AKEL theories of 60,s and 70,s. Maybe you have not noticed that RIK jurnalists are finally speaking Greek and not the Mongolian Cyprus dialog.or even worst the noices by which Old Cypriots of UK are communicate with.
1) You will not investigate anything
2) You said "South"
3) You called Miltiades a communist
I had some nice words to describe your post above but I think I exceeded my "nice words" quota for today.
Locals do consider the UK Cypriots as the peasants , the horiates who left Cyprus as poor mostly village folk in search of a better life . I have always accepted that the vast majority of Immigrants to the UK were indeed simple peasants who have managed over the years under difficult circumstances to improve their standard of living , educate their children , and better them selves financialy . Inevitably very few had the opportunity to improve on their Greek language . Most , prior to coming to the UK , had little or none contact with Greek mainlanders and in my days TV existed in the British bases only. These pure Cypriots hanged on to tradition as it was back in Cyprus , progress was not even though of , and arduosly worked their way into the British way of life while simultaneously holding on to their Cypriot culture.
I visit Cyprus at least 5 or 6 times a year and over the years have witnessed tremendous progress in every walk of life , our roads , our cities , our beaches all have improved. Sadly , as they say , "o nouros to kipreou " when it comes to certain aspects of life , it remains in the past.
Has anyone noticed how beautiful the molos part of Limassol is ? And yet some complete village idiot decides to install a dozen stainless steel monstrosities , sinks , in order that visitors wash their hands !!! At least this is what a lady working there told me when I asked as to the purpose of these ugly sinks in an otherwise beautiful area. My letter is on the way to the Limassol Mayor. So you see an outsider looking in does focus on monstrosities with a sharper vision.
While searching for a photograph of my self with Kafenes , I came across this thread and in particular this post and this paragraph:
"""Has anyone noticed how beautiful the molos part of Limassol is ? And yet some complete village idiot decides to install a dozen stainless steel monstrosities , sinks , in order that visitors wash their hands !!! ""
I dont remember coming across these unsighly stainless steel structures the last time I was in the Molos area. Can anyone from Limassol confirm their removal ?
