yes B25, thats the one. That was apparently a very tiring process doing by hand. My father invented one with a motor and sold his design for £2000 which would have been a huge amount of money back in 58. Those that may not believe my story can ask their elders, especially those in the building decorating business who I hope will name my father as the inventor of the electrical Sprit machine. My fathers initials are AR for the record.

Respect to you Mr frog.

It's a no brainer B25. The land they're building on, the hotels, houses they are profiteering from belongs to somebody who has worked all his life to build. They are just innocent victims of circumstances.
Some will say they lost it in war, others will say they deserve what they get for the injustices suffered by TC's. In my opinion nothing can justify taking something off someone that has worked all his/her life to build. It is totally against common human decency.

But dont you feel that these people from both sides should be asking for answers from those that placed them in that position? like the "RoC" administration? and why they are not pushing for their rights back? instead of bankrupting the south.

Yes VP, in an ideal world this is what both sides would want and a resolution would have been achieved long long time ago. I'm now 60 and my dads 83, we discuss the Cyprus issue on many occasions. He tells me many stories of his young working days with GC's and for GC's.

He started his working life working as a decorator, he on many occasions would go and work on wealthy GC's property and they would be delighted with his work, they would thank him and pay him or his boss but they would also point out he is not Greek and he would be much better off in Turkey and he should leave Cyprus and settle there. This happened on hundreds of occasions and even though he got on well with his GC work colleagues and bosses he always felt he was an outsider.

My father was passionate about electronics and was a very intelligent and determined man. There was a thing they used to do on Cyprus houses in the 50s up to the 80s, we called it ISPIRIT, I think I got it right. This thing involved a bucket like contraption with a rotating handle and the user would manually turn the handle with speed and a mixture loosely mixed cement and stone chippings would be sprayed and stick on the wall for some effect that the Cypriots liked.

My dad invented an electric version of that machine and sold ti to one of building firms back in 58 or £2000. This set may dad up and he opened an electronics shop opposite Evkaf building in Nicosia and he never looked back. Most old generation GC's know my dad very well. My dad always say, "son, they don't like us or want us here and we will never live in peace or harmony. And he also always says, roughly translated, A BAD LANDLORD WILL ALWAYS FORCE HIS TENANT TO BE A HOMEOWNER HIMSELF ONE DAY.

I could write a book with my dads stories but who would believe his stories, they are too sad and horrific to even think about.

Thank you for sharing that MR, we hear this all the time from the older generation TCs, the feelling today has not chnaged either you can read it on this forum the GCs are always telling us to go live in Turkey but what they dont want to understand is that we have just as much right to me here as they do, maybe the division is what we all deserve and is after all the best solution.

meaning of illiterate;

a. Unable to read and write.
b. Having little or no formal education.

but in the Kikapooo dictionary it means something else, what a moron if you do not agree with what the says you become "illiterate" how convenient that the 3 people that challenge your biased stypidity you label "illiterate"...says a lot more about you than it does about anyone else.

Illiterate can also mean ignorant and uncultured.

I have already stated that, it doesn't mean you 3 illiterates cannot read, or did you also not comprehend that part either.

You don't have to agree with me on anything. That is not the reason as to why you 3 are called "illiterates". You are called illiterates because you do not fully comprehend what it is that you are reading, because your answers give a different response to what was written, that's all.

So we are now not illiterates although you label us do, but because we do not understand the biased crap you crap you continue to post you want to use the word illiterate in stead of you do not comprehend what I am saying and expect everyone to understand what you mean, that in itself tells us all how stupid you really are, a barrage of words do not make you intelligent its just a way to camouflage your insecure stupidity which only other morons understand and support.

Yes, you are an illiterate, because you do not fully comprehend not only what I write, but writings of others, including official articles, some of which are very simple to understand, but not you. Just because you can read, it's not enough for you not to be illiterate in the real world.

For gods sake make up your mind, your problem is that we see right through your shit and that makes you uncomfortable thats why you feel the need to label us illiterate so that other stupid people like yourself who follow like sheep are the again like yourself a moron. So in reality I take what you say as a compliment as I would never follow you and accept everyone word you say like the sheep we see on this forum. You have chosen your side and thats firmly with the GCs whos arses you continue to lick everyday.

I'm glad to hear that you take it as a compliment of being labelled as an illiterate, because if the shoe fits, then.............! Once again you did not comprehend what I wrote. I said you did not have to agree in anything I write. Your problem is, you do not comprehend fully what I or others write, because the evidence is in your rebuttals. That's why you are an illiterate and not because you can't read.

I always support all Cypriots to have and run their own country. Unlike you, I'm not a Racists or a Fascists against the GCs or anyone else for that matter. That's what bothers you, because you want ALL the TCs to be Racists and Fascists towards the GCs for you to achieve permanent division in Cyprus so that you can keep your ill gotten stolen GCs properties. Not gonna happen, because many TCs do not share your Racists and Fascistic views.

We all know who we are Kikapooo, so your silly little labels mean nothing...your problem is that we understand your post so well that our responses make you uncomfortable because they are the normal not beyyy sheep like response you get from the GCs whose arses you lick daily. As for the solution in Cyprus it doesnt look like its gonna happen and theres a good reason for that the two sides just do not want to compromise, have you ever thought that this si what both sides deserve you reep what you sow and all that plus the GCs have everything they want, why share recognition to make a few GC refugees happy?

Too late. It's out of fashion.

Just in case you're not aware, we were actually talking about 1958.

Yes, you must forgive Kuru, he has been so busy on developing his WMD that he cannot keep up

Look, I may have created another nick and if I remember correctly I may have even said I was developing and selling and even considering selling villas on a promotion of BOGOF, in case you don't know buy one get one free. It was just a silly thing I did to annoy one of the most TC haters on the forum known as Piratis, who in their right mind would believe that or even remember it? I now realise you take things far too seriously, how about taking things with a pinch of salt and chilling out a little my friend?

I wasn't actually referring to the above what so ever, because I never came across it before, but something much more than the above.

Just out of interest, which nick did you use for the above admission?

With the utmost respect Kik. I'm only on the forum when I get too hot by the pool and I come in to cool off. You obviously can dedicate more time to the forum so why not spend a couple of hours and find out for yourself. Seriously though, only yesterday I said you need to take things with a pinch of salt and calm down a bit. Today you want to interrogate me about some shit I said 4-5 year ago. get a life my friend.

No interrogation at all. I though we were just having a conversation, that's all.

But if you want to drop it, that's fine too. Maybe that's a good thing.

Go and enjoy your swim.
