They did not serve Ouzo there (just to keep on topic).

You do try Deniz

Yep, one must.
You must try it too.

Yes Deniz . . . you are very trying

yep, you are very tiring indeed

Here's a brief summary of Aniseed:

Aniseed is native to the eastern Mediterranean region.

Medicinal uses:

Contains phytoestrogen (these are mimics of the female hormone estrogen) . . . . so go easy unless you want to improve your breasts.

Anise is a mild antiparasitic.

Its leaves can be used to treat digestive problems, relieve toothache, and to treat lice and scabies.

Flitsa already knows its uses to treat colds and flu.

When mixed with wine it's a remedy for scorpion stings.

Anise oil is a precursor used in the clandestine synthesis of psychedelic drugs such as 2C-B, 2C-I and DOB. So Theodoros may like to add this to his weed list.

Culinary

Many, because it has good digestive properties so best taken after meals.

Hunting and FISHING

Anise can be made into a liquid scent and is used for both hunting and fishing.

And as Eliko discovered serendipitously and independently (the best discoveries ) it has a particular effect on some dogs similar to catnip on cats. Some cats as well seem attracted to anise. Anise is perfectly safe for cats and dogs to ingest . . . but not in excess.

Nice start to the day for us collectors of trivia

Phoenix, only yesterday I was fishing using anise oil. Not easy to find but I have found one pharmacy in Paphos who sells it. Very expensive but a drop of it will go a long way. Another substitute is boiled liquorice and use the water.

I don't like the smell of aniseed so ouzo is a no go area...but I love Zivania...during summer, like now it's kept in the fridge...nothing like a shot of it when i get home...better make that a few shots...

When it comes to fishing nothing compares with beef heart and chicken for bait?...they love it...whole pilchards are ok as well.

What if you used a whole pilchard and just caught a sardine?

Boom, I don't want to change this thread to fishing. In Cyprus, the largest fish you will get from the beach is bream, if you're lucky. I used to use whole pilchards when I used to rock fish in Sydney and it worked well. Have caught a few large snappers. Next time try Halloumi, they love it.

Not gonna happen, not this life time anyway ...unless they are on some strict steroid diet

[EasyE]

I remember going on a jolly with the boys to Faliraki, Rodos, a 6 or 7 years ago. We bought a cheap bottle of Ouzo and a bottle of lemonade. We started on the lemonade and Ouzo and ended up just drinking the Ouzo neat. We had a very good night indeed, ok, blurred but still a good night. I do remember though it did get messy in the middle of the night and we very nearly got thrown out of this one bar, I blame the Ouzo 100%.

So I do like Ouzo, but you have to be careful when consuming...pulled a cracking bird though!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So fishing sucks in Cyprus then...Is there any trout fishing in Cyprus?

Mate I am not prepared to share halloumi with the fish...no way...
