There was a large Turkish area in Limassol also,still there with a few Turkish Cypriots living there.

According to Phoenix, that is also 'Occupied' areas.

[Oracle]

Lastly we lived on the Turkish side just behind the Ledra Palace ......

.... Our last home in Nicosia was just over on the Turkish side near the river.

.....On the Turkish side it hadn't really changed at all. I wandered .

A more acceptable term for what I think you mean, is to call it the "Turkish Occupied Side" ....
I'll let you off for now 'cos you are new

....As kids we were well aware of the tensions at the time...1960-63....

Can you expand on this please?

What tensions where you aware of as a teenager? .....(in what was supposed to have been the most lovey-dovey part of our history, which a few TCs are demanding we go back to).

He is talking of the years 1963 or thereabouts and not after 1974. PLEASE NOTE!!

Deniz;
she also knows , the wall in Nicosia was built up between 63 and 64.
Nicosia was divided in two sectors since 1963. İt doesn't suit her . that's why they never likes us when we are talking about 63 .

Halil .... please look above, highlighted in red ... The man was talking about 1960 -1963.

Get your facts right propaganda merchant before you pass judgement on me.

Phoenix mou. What is causing the confusion here is your use of the word 'Occupied'. Like what you call, 'Occupied Cyprus'. What Halil and I are saying is that it is wrong to call the Turkish sector of Nicosia 'Occupied' with the same meaning as 'Occupied Cyprus. In 1960 = 63 there was no 'occupied areas, just Turkish sectors and greek sectors, which merely indicated where the majority of each community lived. You had Turkish areas in Larnaka and Paphos too. I think you were far too young then, to understand the geography of the island prior to your being napalmed.

No Deniz ... what is causing the confusion is that both you and halil are jumping in without observing

... and so far the person to whom the questions were addressed has not answered.

So kindly leave it alone .......

Des please answer the above questions of mine, if you can?

[halil]

Thanks Deniz,
Ağzına sağlık.
İ was going to answer her but you have done it for me .
Still i am wondering what Des is going to tell us about his childhood time . İt will clear more things about 60's conditions of the Cyprus . İt is always good to listen foreigners observations and comments over Cyprus .

OK, Des will answer.

I ask you directly now. Are you calling the Turkish area of Nicosia in 1960 - 63 'occupied areas'? YES or NO.

When I was a child growing up in that area,we never looked upon other kids as been any different than we were.We were all kids,playing,getting dirty,been shouted at by GC's and TC's...happy days.

Likewise in mixed villages Purdy. We never even wondered why they spoke a different language than us, but communicate we did.

Everything changed after 1958. Nationalist ideas were imported. Bad trade.

[Des]

Oracle, perhaps you are too young! Nicosia was always divided. There was a very distinct Turkish area and and also a Greek area. Our family lived on both sides. There were also Turkish villages and Greek villages for hundreds of years.
There didn't seem to be much intermingling of both communities when I lived there.
