Yes you will now: It is called Greenland because of a 1000 year old marketing strategy. Vikings/norse explorers named it so to attract more people to settle there. "The more the merrier / stronger"



I accept and thank you for your explanation, but after these suckers arrived and discovered it was only ice and snow there, did they ask for their money back? :D

Good to hear you're back in San Francisco enjoying your boat Kicks. Sorry to hear of your friends poor health. I have lost 2 dear uncles and 2 cousins in the last 8 years to this awful disease. My brother who is also my business partner is suffering from prostate cancer so it seems to be the norm in our family, awful, fucking awful. :evil:

Hi M, sorry to hear about your brother. As you know I too have prostate cancer, since August 2014. I decided not to have any treatment and Im still doing ok. I have never, even for a minute, allowed my condition to worry me. I have a positive attitude to it which by all accounts it helps.
Being in Cyprus and driving daily is far more .....dangerous to me( they are all fucking donkey riders :lol: ) than my condition. Mind you I m almost 74 so im not looking for tens more years just 23 more !!

Hi Y, glad to hear you're keeping well. My brothers cancer was quite advanced so he had to have radio therapy. He is many medications and his consultant is keeping a good eye on things. He is similar to you in that he doesn't care what happens, he has a saying in Turkish "koptugu yerde kalsin", basically key sera sera, whatever happens I don't give a fuck attitude :P

As for Cypriot drivers? Tbh mate, London driving has become a joke too. Since the arrival of Eastern Europeans which many courier companies are employing now it is unbearable. These cunts don't know what indicators are. They'll do any manuvre as they choose. If you're behind them they could stop, they could turn left or right, you just don't know. One thing I do like about Brexit is the fact that it will at least prevent more of these idiots coming into the country, there are more than enough of them already. I'm hoping some will even fuck off back to their country at the end of the year when we are officially out of the EU.

Sorry to you and all CF members if you do not approve my comments about Eastern Europeans but it is fact that my day to day experiences with them has not been positive to say the least. I'm not racist, I'm a realist.

The problem is this, they can't tell the difference between ghosts and jinn.

I don't buy it.

In one of your senior moments you subtracted 74 from 100 and thought the answer was 23 ;-)

Our sailor friend has just passed away, which will be a relief for himself, even though he has been unconscious for the past few days.

As for my Turkish friend, I was asked to visit him tomorrow instead of today since he had visitation by the nurse and hospice and that he was feeling very tired. Tomorrow is another day and I am hopeful to see him. Then I will go and spend two nights in Napa Valley at ex girlfriend’s home, whom herself needs care by helpers almost 24 hours a day at home. When she has her good moments, she is great, which then I will take her to a nice restaurant Saturday evening. Parkinson’s disease is a terrible illness to have. I hope to visit one or two wineries while up there.

Sunday I will be back in the Bay Area to enjoy the Super Bowl game on the large screens and the crab feast at our little humble yacht club which has a full bar and a very large kitchen at our marina by the Bay. I will have few other friends who will be visiting me and enjoying the game and the crab feast together. Normally my Turkish friend and his wife would join me for different events at our yacht club, but not this time I am very sorry to say.

Hope you are well. Sounds like the circumstances to your trip to San Francisco are not very pleasant.

I hope you are well and the circumstances don't affect your psychology too much.

Yes, thanks Paphitis.

Actually, I have made this trip to see these friends knowing they have these ailments and that I may not see them again in the near future. I had intentions going to Thailand at this time for some sun, but changed my plans once I found out the my Turkish friend had taken the turn for the worse.

I did meet a friend yesterday at a wine tasting event in San Francisco as she is a wine expert and a wine journalist with wonderful articles on wines, wine makers and wineries, both in the USA and internationally, so that was very pleasant seeing her again. She has so little time, that was a meeting place. Not a bad place to meet really with so many wines to choose from to taste.
