This year we saw markedly more, far more than in previous years, tissies out for an evening stroll along the front. Indeed, take it from your honest Reporter, there were more of them than grissys. The large mosque there, although there was no "call for prayers" of course, was popular.

We understood that some had moved back in to their old homes in the tissy quarter ... and so they should, and I don't have a problem with that leaving aside any matter of possible double-dipping, CY/EU citizens enjoying their properties and living in peace as they have every right to do as full and equal partners in the Republic, and doing so without special privileges, without guarantees etc.

Hold on a minute. TCs living safely among other Cypriots as equal EU citizens? Without guarantees from Turkey? This sets a very dangerous precedent if you ask me. Don't they realise what damage they are doing to Turkey's cause? Traitors, the lot of them.

Noone treats those TCs as traitors. Everyone is free to choose where to live. They do no damage to national cause of TCs. Before or after a solution found, some percentage of TCs wish to return their homes anyway. This does not mean they don't support TC's national cause.

Opa, that last one sounded like a veiled threat. Are you planning a takeover of Paphos? A new peace operation Halil?

Oracle you have provoked the forces of peace! It is all your fault.

No Nikitas Turkish Cypriots are returning back to their own homes in Paphos . With their songs and tradationes .There will be no place for Hellenes . Only Cypriots will be in Paphos .(TC's and GC's + TC's married to settlers and their kids )

Then Turkey can f*ck off then, because if Cypriots can live together in Paphos, without problems and without guarantees, they can do so all over the island. Put than in Bayrak!

Great. Hear that everyone? insan's inviting Cypriots to go back to their homes in the north.

The solution is people living together in peace. They're able to do so in Paphos. So Turkey can f*ck off!

This does not mean they don't support TC's national cause.

Bollocks. This is 2009 not 1963. The TC's national cause is the same as all Cypriots. Freedom, security and prosperity in the EU.

This is the crux of the Cyprus problem. The TCs still have the mindset that existed in the 1960s. They still talk about guarantees and enosis, Grivas, Sampson and the junta. They haven't realised that GCs and the world in general has moved on immeasurably since then. They are as rigid and inflexible as a plank of wood. Hence they demand unreasonable, anachronistic "safeguards".

Actually, for me; bi-zonality is not that important but after 35 years of inhabiting, investing and forming a life order in North of Cyprus it would be too difficult for it's inhabitants to be displaced by force. However if any of the TC refugees and non- TC refugees wish to be displaced/return their homes then there's no problem for anyone...

People, no matter what ethnic and religous background they have r able to live, peacefully together until an interest conflict erupts between 2 or more political groups and affects the people too. All people of Cyprus supports any of these political groups and in case of a political conflict they stand behind who tehy support.

There's nothing relevant of being in 2009 or 1963 or 2023... Overwhelming majority of GCs consider themselves as a part of Greek nation and TCs as a part of Turkish nation. These 2 communities have never had a common national cause under the circumstances of Cyprus. Freedom, prosperity and security anywhere; r people's personal or family wishes.

WHAT????? TCs coming to live in Paphos????? Over my dead body! No TCs will be able to come back to live in Paphos unless I say so!

Personal opposition of Kafenes. Why?

Change the record, insan. You're spouting Turkey's propaganda and doing her dirty work in Cyprus.

Let me take you by the hand and walk you through the streets of Paphos - I'll show you something, to make you change your mind.

Those r my personal opinions based on facts not Turkey's propaganda. R u in Cyprus atm? I'd like to have time to visit Paphos with or without u.

There is none so blind as he who will not see. You should get a job on Bayrak.

R u in Cyprus atm?

Sort of. I live in the Cypriot Republic of Northern London. We hope to get official international recognition before you do. We have observer status on Barnet, Enfield and Haringey Councils, enjoy direct flights to and from Luton International Airport. None of our orthodox churches have been turned into stables, the gubes that Despina in Arnos Grove makes meet EU standards and are exported throughout the UK. And all the settlers imported from Greece are dj's on LGR and no one pays them any attention.

I'd like to have time to visit Paphos with or without u.

Ask Billy. He's just come back from Paphos.
