No nation on earth can claim to be perfect in all aspects of living. The West can justifiably claim that it has in place laws and governing racism , religious freedoms , the right to vote , freedom of speech a welfare system in most countries and institutions that take care of the old and the infirm , as well as caring for people it also cares for the welfare of animals and birds.
In Cyprus we have the inbred disposition of taking care of our family , alas not of our animals or indeed our immediate ambience , clear for all to see in their every day life.
The influx of Brits has added considerably to the wellbeing of the locals and more so to the welfare of animals and to the surroundings in general. English care for , not only as the G/Cs do the interior of houses , but also the surrounding areas , animals and birds are seen as wonderful creatures not a bloody meal on the table.
As a Cypriot I would like to thank all those Brits who have and still do contribute so much to cultural life in Cyprus , may I also kindly request that they write to Mr Brown reminding him that he hasn't paid his bloody rent for more than 40 years !!! As a matter of fact these "rent" money is put aside year on year and has reached the sum , I believe of some hundreds of millions of pounds. Lets have it Mr Brown we can use it to build a few more hospitals , children's and old peoples homes , sanctuaries for animals and many other worthwhile causes not forgetting the Cancer Associations throughout Cyprus.
On a personal level I would like to congratulate my son in law and my daughter who are about to make me very very happy with my second grandchild , any minute now.!!!! Cyprus here I come
What is the British excuse or justification for not paying rent,dear miltiades??? And here I was thinking that they were actually the only foreign power legitimately in Cyprus...
My sincere congratulations on the imminent arrival of your second grandchild...
