Explosions?

Postby Sotos » Mon Jul 16, 2012 3:56 am

It is almost 5am and I can hear something like explosions coming from far. I went on the roof but I can't see anything. If it was a different time I would suspect fireworks ... but what could this be at 5am!! Anybody else in Cyprus can hear these? They go on for about 10 minutes now.

Don’t worry; that’s just the second batch of confiscated explosives parked next to our other power station!
At 42°C it’s sizzling season again! :lol:

Cyprus ex ministers plead not guilty to blast charges

I hate how my compatriots want the big jobs with the big pay packets but not the responsibility! It should be a precondition in writing of every civil service and political position that accepting the job also means accepting its responsibility!

If the explosions were in the Akrotiri area it was those bloody Brits practicing to fight off the Russian Navy which our President seems to have invited to use Limassol port now that Syria is getting a bit dodgy.
