. . . I'm pleased to see we are witnessing some restrain in hyperbole, Get Real! :D

I thought I'd be gentle in my first message.


and alienate all people from the UK at the same time!! Hardly making a valid point when your generalising makes it nonsense.


How do you expect me to make any sense after posting that stocking story? Image

EXCUSE ME Sophia . . . gulp!

BUT, but you said you were 21 years old in your first post.

I don't know any 21 year-olds who even remember the "O" levels let alone HAVE one . .

And also, it would not be in "English" BUT English Literature or English Language.

Something FISHY here . . . sniff sniff :evil:

Sorry Sophia but you called yourself a Greek Cypriot but then insulted pretty much the whole island's population. You then spoke about OUR universities (British) and OUR products (British) so which is it? Are you proud to be British or Greek Cypriot?

She can be both . . . the only problem is she flits from one to the other depending on how good or bad an experience she has with each affiliation :roll:

Anyway, I doubt this person's authenticity now . . . unless she has a good reason for at the age of 21 having an "O" level in English.

I must say though not every one was nasty I made alot of nice friends and I was lucky to have alot of family to take care of me. I use to get warned all the time, I use to get told to be carful coz Im a XENIE for people who would rip me off. I was going to Larnaca to visit my nan from Limassol, called and asked them to pick me up and take me to Ayios Lazaros church, from there its only a short walk. He made a stop at the air port and dropped off some tourists, he turned round and said, in a nasty attitude aint you getting off? I said no, I told you I was going to Ayios Lazaros, he started shouting at me making threats and everthing. I said I will call the police, he then called up the bus station to comform if I did say Ayios Lazaros, I clearly heard the man tell him yes we always take the girl to Ayios Lazaros on Saturdays. He did end up taking me to my destination, as I was getting my stuff out the back my grandfather walks up and took my bag, the bus driver was in shock and said to my grandfather O KOUMBARE! NAMBOU KAMNIS? my grandfather then said Im fine but why are you shouting at my grandchild for? PE BELLO XOPKATE...

That was just funny!!!

You tell me, both of my parents are borne Cypriots, so what does that make me? I did not mean to insult any one but how do you think I felt a 19 year old bought up to think that we are all the same and we are loving warm Christians. If you did know me you will know that I am so not a horrible person, that I am very kind and generous, I will never hurt any one but I clearly have and I apologise for that but what I said about accepting people for who they are and what ever race or religion, still stands.
