KYRIACOS IS 76, squat, plump and sad as he sits alone under a tired looking beach umbrella awaiting customers to hire sunbeds; it is Monday and there aren't any.

Tourism is not what it was, he tells me. And what do we expect when restaurants charge e1/420 for a salad worth five, he asks, adding he saw it on RIK RIK Royalty in Kind
RIK replacement in kind (US DoD)
RIK Remove, Install, Know (harmonic accessing) news the other night.

He has a younger brother in AustraliaC* What a country, he says, clean, tidy, organised and beautiful. He also has a sister in Canada and another in England -- all having quit this impoverished island (as it was back then) just ahead of the EOKA EOKA Ethniki Organosi Kyprion Agoniston (Greek) uprising in the mid-50s.

He visits them regularly and claims almost everything is cheaper elsewhere nowadays. We've turned into a race of greedy grabbers, he reckons, allowing ourselves to be overrun by immigrant workers with most Cypriots too lazy to get off their arse. Just look at the state of the beach, filthy! "Sit down," he insists, "Keep me company for half an hour and I'll tell you why EOKA was the cause of us losing half the island."

76 years old and renting sunbeds ........I think this may be a career mistake more than a political reprocussion,,

TCs/Turks massacred way more GCs both before and after independence. In fact there would be no casualties at all if the Turks were not initiating wars and conflicts in Cyprus.

So what is the point you are trying to make?

Thats the difference VP. I get scared shitless in 1964 as a child and it makes me not want to suffer that again or to have others suffer it....But...GR gets scared shitless in 1974 and wants to not only make others suffer the same way but force it on his own people again...

As I said many times in the past… the 1974 problem is STILL there and that makes all the difference!

Outsiders often ask… “Why can’t you guys forget the past and just get along?” which sounds perfectly reasonable when you’re unaware that the past is still the present that refuses to go away!
