For the situation that you have described, the first expression that comes to my mind would be:

Adam fos çıktı.

I don't know if Turkish Cypriots would recognise or use this expression, though.

Its a long time since I have heard it. 'Fos' is a greek word meaning 'bad'. I think we used it for bad eggs though.

Oracle is correct "chick a dee". You should learn to speak few words of English correctly first, specially if you are living in the UK. :idea:

The locals would very much appreciate it.!!

Don't let the forum discourage you! The people in Cyprus aren't so bad. It's just a bit exaggerated on here because of the anonymity. Everyone can be a twat on the internet but most aren't like that in person. Besides, if you think it's bad in here, take a look in the Cyprus Problem section :lol: :lol:
