A thread that start with all Turkish that we(non Turkish speakers) do not understand anything from it, we know that Cyprus is moving but we fight for that too, we confuse Cyprus surrounded by peace with pies and peas and with a bird who carries a whole island as a present
and finally Oracles name!
Nil, even if you think that only Turkish Cypriot will know your question you have to write it in English. We have British living on the island and might know and help you or someone might heard or visit that place you are looking for and can help...
Correct Lena, this thread means nothing to most of us, hence my taking the piss regarding peace, peas, doves, turkeys. Either this is an English language forum or it isn't - why don't admin intervene when this type of thing happens?
Why you ask me? Ask Admin.
By the way this thread meant a lot to Nil that asked for informations. Thats why I guess she created this thread. If it did not mean anything to you thats something else.
I'm not asking you to ask admin. If I felt strongly enough about it I'd contact admin myself, but frankly can't be bothered. Just seems strange to have a thread on an English-language, open forum that is written in Turkish.
Of course the thread meant nothing to me - I can't read or understand Turkish, and I'm sure it did mean something to Nil, otherwise she wouldn't have posted it. Kind of obvious isn't it? But I did want to make a point about her avatar, although she chose to ignore it, or play dumb. Who cares, life's too short.................
And your point was??? That you like pies with peas?
Lena, do you really want me to walk through the thought processes that lead from the TC-hardliner Nil's avatar of a dove encompassing Cyprus, to turkeys, peas, and pigeon pie? I can do so if it is really bothering
you!
Whats your problem Talisker? Not getting your porridge? Its a lovely Avatar and represents Peace for Cyprus. A whole Cyprus to boot. Stop picking on Nil.
Deniz, Deniz, Deniz

Bit sensitive aren't you? I'm sure Nil can stick up for herself. She certainly has some strident views. Personally, I like to challenge the views of anyone who claims the symbol of peace to support any stance they put forth. Or are you the self-appointed arbiter of 'fair play' on this forum?
If I was to be sensitive myself I could whinge about your stereotyping 'porridge' comment, and later comment 'the only language he knows is English', just because I admitted I don't understand Turkish. But I won't...................
Oh, please do. Make my day. This is a forum where we can all join in. Fancy you picking on an Avatar. Tut tut tut. Go skeet off and study your Emotikons. Now run alng. Good god, am I sounding like OrPh?
Blimey, you're losing it Deniz! I 'picked on an avatar'............actually I challenged the avatar in supporting a message. If we go by your rules on no challenges to avatars, then the following scenario could exist - an avatar with doves, olive branches, etc (and throw in Lennon/Ono singing 'Give peace a chance' as musical accompaniment), but the message is one of hostility, possibly life-threatening, then the overall package is a mixed message. And should be challenged from all angles.........
As far as telling me 'to run along' - bit patronising, or is that part of your role as forum arbiter?
