I support the NO vote but I hope for a YES vote... Greece needs a new government... :wink:

So what is it Paphiti?

Is it the f-16's or the pretty islands?
Or is it the damsel in distress scenario that appeals to you?

F-16s are old hat.

It's the Greek spirit that appeals to me, as well as the philoxenia, climate and sheer bueaty.

If only he knew… today he’s Greek, tomorrow Australian, and next week maybe Puerto Rican!

It all depends on which side of the bed he gets up and whether or not he’s menstruating…

I am more an Arabian Bedouin now who is lucky enough to travel a lot and see for my own eyes.

Greece might be down for now, but if they vote no we will talk again.

miltiades wrote:Paphitis, I think its time you changed your name, anything apart from Paphitis. Shithole you say? Is it because you came face to face with real Cypriots and had a few problems with some documentation. Mate, Cyprus is not only superior to Greece it is far more friendly and much better organized. I don't dislike the Greeks but Im not overtly overwhelmed by them either.

Why not call your self AFSTRALEZOS or better still, in honour of your favourite game, ...69NotOut

There is nothing superior about Cyprus at all. You're just biased.

I say it as it is and am very critical of Greece because it has bought this on its self.

However, Greeks have a fighting spirit which we have seen over and over again and we are seeing it again today. It is the Greece I love and which was sold out by the sold out poppies of PASOK and ND.

Tsipras is excellent in my book and I am saying that even though I am no leftist.

At least tell us her name Paphiti.

Right now Cap, I am sun baking on my balcony overlooking the caldera whilst the wife is shopping.

Next door to me is a nice Americana in her bikini doing the same (topless). The Americana's name is A...... and she is georgious. Mwahahahah!

I could send you photos of my suntanned toe as as the lay on a whitewashed verandah overlooking Nea Kammeni if you like.

If Greece goes to the drachma it is possible for it to outshine other EU nations in terms of growth, he said.

I would add, provided that it can go to the drachma in an organized way, and it can move fast to exploit maximum potential from such a move while minimising citizen hardship.

To do that it needs practical, non dogmatic and non doctrinaire people. If there were such people in key jobs the problem would not have gotten to where it is now.

Not only this Nikita's but Greece will go down in history and in 20 years time there will be busts of Tsipras on every corner.

Oh btw, Greece is no war zone either.

Tourism seems to be moving along quite nicely and yesterday NO supporters and YES supporters had rallies only a few mms apart and in complete peace.

Oh btw, foreign cards have no capital controls. You can withdraw as much as you like. So much for the travel warnings and scare campaigns to destroy Greece.

But yes, Greece is embroiled in a disgusting economic war. The so called partners want Greece on its knees and accept any deal they offer. Greeks need to hold their nerve and if they do, Tsipras has the upper hand. Greece will have the upper hand.
