Sounds like "The Charlies" have a chip on their shoulder and lack respect for their pioneering parents! :wink:


If only you knew....


Well, I feel sorry for you


No need, dear. I'm in no need of your false sympathy.

And what does believing you're in a position to judge my shortcomings, say about yours?

Cool. I'll remember that when I'm deciding on somewhere sleepy to retire too.

My sympathy for you is very real! :D

I don't pretend to have any "longcomings", unlike you who forgets Cyprus is the "centre of the Universes" :wink:

They Cypriot gets his aesthetics from villages of dubious beauty. The Charlie gets it from UK culture. Both are the least valuable sources as the rest of the world knows and both lead their adherents to magnum sized kitschness.

The Cypriot does well with the dialect, but mostly decimates modern Greek. The Charlie does the same to English with that cockney accent which sounds like he has cleft palate.

Not all Cypriots belong to these two classifications, there are others, thank God.

And contaminates the 'Cypriot' culture with the decadence he has been taught there. :wink:

At least the charlies know how to park a car properly , you see there are lines in parking areas designating the parking space, Alas to the Cypriot the lines mean fa.
Went to a wedding last night , well it was not so much a wedding more like a rock concert . Hated every minute of it , the Cypriots getting married for whose wedding I and my brother flew in specially from the UK obviously suffered from some anti Cypriot syndrome since all music was English and the few numbers that were in Greek were a load of shit.
Trying to park in the hotel's car park was a nightmare. Do these people know that the parking spaces allocated within the lines are there for a specific purpose?

Would that not leave the gutters less accessible for the drunken revellers to spew their guts into ?. :roll:

The gutters were not required, no Brits there.
