Kyrenia Harbor back in 1972!

The video clip is from the 1972 comedy movie “Diakopes stin Kypro mas” (“Holidays in Cyprus,”) and contains the song “Koutsi Kithara” (“lame guitar”) of Cypriot composer Manos Loizos, sung by actress Dora Sitzani (later wife of Manos Loizos) by the Kyrenia Harbor.

Re Lapiothi - Thanks for that.

We visited Occupied Kyrenia and its Harbour for the first and only time about three years ago. Some Brit phecker approached me about buying some property, which somewhat spoilt the occasion!

With your leave, I'll post one taken in a village a few miles to the east in 1973 later tonight (if I can find it).

You probably wanted to say "Lapithioti."

I am looking forward to see your video clip from 1973.

Thanks in advance.

Thanks for that brother. I do stutter sometimes in the old dialect.
(Wonder what they call someone from Morphou?)

Here is a vid I posted on forum about a year ago from the Occupied Village of Agios Amvrosios, which is on the coast about 5-6 miles east of Kyrenia, which features a traditional "pass-time" from Easter Sunday 1973. Well worth a second look I think.

Agios Amv is known amongst the suitcase-packing, get Pickfords in, land-grabbers as Esentepe.

Some brill music on this by the way.

Damn. Thanks RB. I can't get anything right today. I'll go back and correct it.

RE Antreis "Kyrenia 1973". Thank you for posting this pic. Historical interesting, because it shows a small house in front of the Venetian Round Tower. Any idea what it was used for? When and why it has disappeared?

[dutch_crusader]

Well, it's disappointing to ask a normal question and don't get any answer.
