Did GC gunmen coerce you?
Did TC gunmen coerce you?
By your own volition?
Turkish Cypriots on this forum seem so shy you’d be forgiven for suspecting they’ve got something to hide!
I told you when I first joined the forum. On the 21st December 1963, when fighting broke out I was in Nicosia studying at the Lyce. My grandparents were in the village and were warned off by our GC neighbours that they better move to a place of safety as there might be an attack by outsiders. They first moved to Kophinou then on to Ayios Theodoros the village where my grandfather was born and had a sister. Then onto Nicosia where they went to the UK. The next time I saw my village was the year when we met you.
Within a year my grandparents were both dead of heart break.
