Perhaps it is time to start fire bombing these MF's.


As these are supposed to be educational journeys and enlighten many who go on them, as millions of tourists who come here know very little about the Cyprus divide other than its divided.

This way they learn at least a little about the invasion one hopes, I understand many are left quite saddened by it all, and before had,nt bothered to learn much.

You seem to want to firebomb :shock: this redbus company which is Brit/Cypriot partnership without mentioning the hundreds of coach trips daily to the north done entirely by GC,s taking tourists over, from all over Europe :roll: :roll: :roll: TUI go daily all arranged in the south.

As usual you have your head so far up your a***e you have lost touch with what goes on around you.

You no doubt live in some far distant land and know diddly squat. :twisted:

Here is their link as I know the Cypriot owner I would just LOVE you to make the same suggestion to him, and then watch as he seeks you out :lol:

They also have a Playbus for hire, and apparently doing well. Licenced and approved by the Cyprus Govt, who also think its a good idea, myself the thought of sitting in an open top bus in this heat makes me cringe but Tourists are weird people :wink: EDUCATION EDUCATION EDUCATION!!

Oops - no offence intended with my recommendation. But - in my defence - when I first visited Cyprus 9 years ago I knew absolutely nothing about your recent history - we came simply because friends told us what a great place it was.

I was introduced to the Cyprus "issue" via a tourist coach trip. This made me want to learn more, and I've studied it with interest since then. I have joined relevant websites "Return to Varosha" and spoke to other tourists about the issue ever since.

The BRB tour is actually a very educational trip for the "newbie" to the Cyprus issue, and it does actually inform tourists of a situation they'd otherwise know nothing about.

Note on the more local trip the guide speaks in detail of the Farm Yard siege of Liopetri - and is fully on the side of the resistance fighters.

Honestly - it's not a "gawp at the locals' misfortune" trip -and I think you'd be pleasantly surprised if you tried it.

Anyway - all the best - Richie

Could,nt agree with you more Richie, well said :) Its just some on here need some more education, as they know little about what really goes on, these Red Bus Tours are imho done very sympathetically and have created a market where maybe it was unusual to have one, but is working in the RoC,s interests.

No problem Milo! I do understand how others may have misinterpreted a "great big British double decker bus" roaring around the island! Hopefully we've set the record straight! Probably go on it again in October!!!

PLEASE do not judge us by what you think we do, but only on what you KNOW we do.

Firstly as mentioned in a previous posting we have Cypriot partners, and would not offend them in any way what so ever.

We all live in the free Famagusta area, and are fully supportive to the Greek Cypriot cause.

Most tourists that come onto our tours (Famagusta included) are totally unaware of what has happened to the island. At the conclusion of our tours most of them are fully supportive also.

Hardly the same thing is it.

Yours is a tour of a historical matter that should not be forgotten in a free democratic country.

The other is taking people to an illegal military state to enjoy the fruits or our labours whilst all the time the 200,000 evicted refugees yarn for the home lands.

Nope, those red busses need fire bombing.


200,000 people who "lost" their "weekend homes", compared to the "right to exist" of an ethnic group, is hardly comparable. It's p-nuts!

If you don't like it then fuck back off to where ever the hell you originate from.

Idiot.

I am exactly where I am meant to be too, and no amount of undereducated racist bull crap such as yours will make me move an inch!

Those days are over so get used to it you bumfuck!
