Have a reli who has a bungalow in the main thoroughfare that runs through Aglangia in the southern Free Suburbs of Nicosia. It's a holiday home nowadays, and they visit three or four times a year. They were there this last week.

On Tuesday, in the evening, reli goes to have a shower and finds there's no hot water. Well it's CY and it happens, so thinking there'd been a water cut, reli goes to look in the deposito on top of a low out-building, and what does reli find? >>>>

Some b'stards had cut the pipes and pinched the solar water heaters, two of them, at some time during the day when they were out.

Bleeding thieves. If anyone comes across anyone doing something similar in the area, don't bother with the law, just give them a damn good goubanisma please.

A couple of years ago we travelled up to the village to pick the grapes and on arrival we decided to give them another week .

Went up the following week and .....well I'm sure you've gussed it .....all Bloody well gone...... I blame the Luruciadites me self

Oh another thing I decided to walk up the nice newly constructed path up to the coffee shop and this is the honest truth......some bleeder had nicked all the bulbs from the nice new lights ...Now it wasn't too bad walking up but coming back down a one in four gradient for 250 mtrs in the pitch black after a skinfull of Keo is not fun.

I'm sure you've started a bloody long thread here mate


BTW doesn't CBBB live in Adlangia

OMG, the Turks/TC's are at it again

Am telling you boys the standards of thievery has so gone downhill in recent years whether in CY or here in GB.

As you'll all know am not that old, well nowhere near as passed it as the Venerable Deniz and certainly nowhere near as pissed it as our RB, but remember when thievering took a different courage with old boys blowing up safes, and spending days digging tunnels into vaults or holding up cashiers with sawn-off shotguns.

Nowadays it's all cowardly deception with trawling through people's rubbish bins for personal info for internet fraud, and quick and sneaky opportunist crime when people are out or Luriciciginians out for filthy gains on the back of the TA.

Telling you there's no place left for honest, hard working, carefully planned thievery these days.

Yes, CBBB is in Aglangia on THE main thoroughfare, Larnaca Avenue. Let me know where your kin are situated and I will put the word out to look for a couple of blokes selling second hand solar water heaters, I should be able to get them cheap!

Couple of years ago some bastards nicked a dozen empty KEO bottles from outside my back door, never did work out why they left the empty case. it would have been a lot easier to carry them with that!

Tell you which house it is when we meet mate. One too many thieving Luriciginian scrap merchants on here for my paranoia.

Lost our lemons as did several of the neighbours, should have left me feeling quite bitter but with no lemons thats not been possible.

Not funny really.

Lots of petty crime here in Larnaca too this past year or so. From car content theft, to nicking other people's water and a few weeks ago 3 first floor apartments up the road were broken into. Theives used a ladder to get onto the verandahs and robbed them while they slept in their beds!

It's usually empty apartments that you hear of being broken into. First time I've heard about anyone being burgled whilst they slept.

Speaking of pinching lemons puts me in mind of one of the only two occasions have visited the Stolen North.

Visited a close reli's lovely but pinched house in one of the old villages at the bottom end of the Karpas who had planted the front of the house with a handful of lemon trees back in the sixties. Know these trees well, cos the close reli keeps a photo of the old house in his wallet and at every chance shows it to any and all, so close reli may have asked me a hundred times over the years whether I've seen the photo, and it gets whipped out, looking a bit more ragged than on the previous ninety-nine occasions had seen it.

Anyway, saw the house and the trees for real three or four years ago, and said to our boy who was with us, that his grand-dad would be chuffed to have a lemon or two from the trees brought back to London to squeeze over a souvla, so young Master Cobbett dutifully "pinched", in the eyes of the Occupation Regime, a bagful of lemons.
