Matsakis walked 2km to get a Turkish flag. If he wanted one that badly I would have sent him one.

Thats a good point zan,

Here is how Financial Mirror chose to portray the incident:

A daring Greek Cypriot politician, whose parliamentary immunity has been lifted in an investigation into his huge collection of antiquities, stole a Turkish flag Tuesday from a military post in the buffer zone.

What a hero

Matsakis, a member of President Tassos Papadopoulos’ ruling Democratic Party, said he intended to bring the flag to the European assembly in Brussels to show that Turkey was occupying a fellow member of the European Union.

“I might even give it as a present to members of the (European) parliament, especially the British who support Turkey,” he said.

Isn't he being investigated for trying to bribe a policeman. Now who do we know in the British government that collects flags?

Thanks for the translation. My greek dictionary gives them as synonyms so I did not know which one to use.
Yes, I am absolutely serious, only over my dead body will Papadopolous walk victorious over the TRNC!

What's "trnc"?

Raffy baby I forgot to reply to your invitation for dinner served with a “garnish” of poison.

Have you ever heard one of Winston Churchill’s famous quotes that goes something like this.

On seeing he was totally drunk a lady of high standing reprimanded him by saying; “ Sir! If you were my husband I would put poison in your drink”

Churchill replied; “Madame! If you were my wife I would drink it”

Serve it up baby, I’ll be round at eight.

I dont think she really intended to poison you.
