Nahh. I still look in every day to see what you boys are cooking up. There's mainly just a lot or rehashing going on at the moment though.
I should start an OP but...............................I see Russia has just signed an agreement with the Sudanese this week to build a naval base near Port Sudan. Which will be their second one after Tartous, Syria and first I believe in the Indian Ocean (?).
Surprisingly, it seems that the person who's most upset about it is............................ Erdogan.
I've wondered what's happened to CG too. IIRC his lady was having medical problems about the last time we heard from him. I hope that isn't the cause of his absence.
I got into a taxi in New York a few years back and the driver was a Sudanese chap. We started chatting and I told him I was a Turkish speaking Cypriot. The word Turkish was enough for him to start praising RTE, he thought the sun shone out of his backside. I thought about telling him what I really thought about RTE but decided to keep my mouth shut instead.
I hope CG and wife are ok.
