fantastic ...apart from taking the piss out of the english school i enjoyed every word of it.

Come on DT.

As young Lyce' students we used to 'hate' the TCs who went to the English School. I dont know if it was envy or no, they were so snobbish. They used to exhibit 'we are mightier than thou' attitude'. I am talking of the '50s and 60's of course.

But we ES alumni ARE mightier than thou. Always have been always will be.

I did suggest that it was envy. I was upset I was not sent there. Our family did have students attending there. My late uncle was an English teacher there in the late 40s /early fifties. Had to leave for political reasons. One of his favourite students was either Kyprianou or Clerides. I think it was the latter. I remember him showing the note books of this person., which he kept as a memento..
We know the cream of society went through the English School so you rightly can be proud of yourself. Does it keep the same standards it had then?

Well I'm class of 92 and by that time the standards were still pretty good on both education and discipline. (Capital puishment was given out a few times by the headmaster while i studied there.)

Duke Of Edinburgh still used to pay his annual visit over for the DoE awards and managed to keep his mouth shut from pissing off any of the natives.

Still the easiest school to get into top class uni's in the UK.

P.S It was Clerides, think Denktash was there at the same time a few years younger than him.

You are correct about Denktash. My uncle did teach him at the English School. I tried to avoid mentioning him so as not to let the thread/topic get hijacked. Another was the Sheihk Nazim the resident Nakshibendi Dervish Leader, resident in Lefka. These were leople I met (when much yougerand heard them reminiscing of the G.O.D.s. They were in praise of Clerides as a very clever student. Needless to say many others have followed in their footsteps, both GCs and TCs and Armenians.
T'is true it was the fool-proof way of entry into the British Uni's.

none compare to the British Grammer schools of the 80s ...proper educaion ...eveyone one of my class mates and me ...were earning 50k per annum by 95 ...greek school education is a joke

In which case, Oranos, you would have been taught that it is the height of bad manners to mention your earnings!

not really love ... in fact i worked in IT solutions game for some time in mid to end of the 90s and then worked in business continuation planning for 100k ...thats why at 36 years of age i am retired ,teaching martial arts to kids ,adults and the military .... and at the same time ..looking for a career change ....

life is about being prepared ... cyprus does not prepare its young for the real world neither does it prepare its workers ...

i predict in 3 years 65% of the population will be in dead end jobs ...

the state schools and the goverment are not talking to the big companies about their needs and more and more jobs are going to foreigners ..

check out amdocs recruitment policy in limmassol ...how many GC WORK THERE ..they are IT SOLUTIONS PROVIDERS ...they bring overseas workers galore ..pay them huge wages ....why ..no real experience ,just certs ...you cant live on certs and hope for meson ,.first language must be english and confident and detailed in their work approach...show me a cypriot male who can concentrate for more than 5minutes on a subject ....

23 greek cyps work there ..toilet cleaners ,security etc .....sad ...very sad

KEMA /cimm HAVE A lot to answer TO

Oranos, you sound so much older than 36. You are obviously very assertive and confident.

Have you had a mid-life crisis yet?

Which brand of the Martial Arts do you teach kids?

i teach a dont brand ,i dont teach for the love of money but for the benefit of my community ....are you one of them wicca people ...?

What are wicca people?

I do Tai Chi and Yoga . . . not Martial Arts.

tai chi is a martial art, but also taught for health - self health /chi gung breathing

yoga is a predosessor to chi gung excercise and excellent for body dynamics ,again early martial art ...

i am certified in THAI BOXING/BORAN.KRAV MAGA,JU JITSU -MILITARY,WING CHUN AND MODERN AND JAPANESE WEAPONS ...

I TEACH CHILDREN KICKBOXING ,JU JITSU AND SAMURAI

ADULTS THE SAME BUT NO WEAPONS ...ONLY KNIFE TECHNIQUES TO MAIM etc mixture of women ,men ,locals and foreigners ....

SOLDIERS ...EVERYTHING FROM SWAT TO COMBATIIVES 250...

IN 09 I TAKE OVER THE NATONAL GUARD ....thank god ...

I AM 36 ...BUT LOOK AND FEEL YOUNGER ..all i do is train and research and study ..no office work for me ...

a mid life crsis is what you greek cyps have in your 20s when you realise you got married to a dunce ...

but you quoted your disproval of christmas etc and mention solstice or some crap ...

Tai Chi is based on controlled, slowed down movements from Karate and Judo . . . BUT I do not see it as having anything "Martial" about it, since you would be knocked over before taking the first breath

Stop worrying about my views on religion . . . I was put off Christmas because of a number of tragedies which proved to me it was nothing special . . added to which I hate the fakery of the celebrations here in the UK.

Winter solstice is a REAL phenomenon . . . and because my son is still young and loves celebrations . . it's meaningful to celebrate something natural and acquaint the young with the revolutions of the planet . . etc.

BUT I am afraid Oranos, although brought up Orthodox . . . and my mother would pass out if she knew . . . I cannot possibly believe in the presence of or the need for a GOD . . . let alone a half God as Jesus etc.

Are you going to tell me I am a Barbarian now?

I did suggest that it was envy. I was upset I was not sent there. Our family did have students attending there. My late uncle was an English teacher there in the late 40s /early fifties. Had to leave for political reasons. One of his favourite students was either Kyprianou or Clerides. I think it was the latter. I remember him showing the note books of this person., which he kept as a memento..
We know the cream of society went through the English School so you rightly can be proud of yourself. Does it keep the same standards it had then?

Well I'm class of 92 and by that time the standards were still pretty good on both education and discipline. (Capital puishment was given out a few times by the headmaster while i studied there.)

Duke Of Edinburgh still used to pay his annual visit over for the DoE awards and managed to keep his mouth shut from pissing off any of the natives.

Still the easiest school to get into top class uni's in the UK.

You are correct about Denktash. My uncle did teach him at the English School. I tried to avoid mentioning him so as not to let the thread/topic get hijacked. Another was the Sheihk Nazim the resident Nakshibendi Dervish Leader, resident in Lefka. These were leople I met (when much yougerand heard them reminiscing of the G.O.D.s.
