I miss: crime, negative attitudes, cold weather, expensive eating out and petrol, stress and having to commute to work every day

hello everyone!

cyprus is a great place, but.....

this topic is to share what it is that you miss most about your country...or have seen abroad and would like to see here...whether it is a service, a product, or ways of improving businesses which already exist here...

coming from moscow, russia, i miss just about everything ...would like to hear your thoughts on the subject...

cheers!

Well I am AWAY from Cyprus so I will tell you what I miss about it:
My Family
The nice weather-especially in the winter when it snows
My friends
Good Food
Fun loving neighbors
THE SEA

Andri-cy,

You have been away from home too long, once you start spelling "neighbors" the American way.!!!

Kikapu, you wouldnt believe that I almost failed enlgish class because my professor wouldnt accept the english spelling in my essays. she underlined colour and favour and favourite and neighbour with red ink and she put a bunch of exclamations next to them every time. I had to actually go to the Dean and argue that if something is spell in both ways it should be accepted both ways. She kept arguing and she ended up cussing the Dean in front of me so he HAD to fire her to save face. Since then I usually try to adapt for when my child goes to school in a couple of years so she wont have to pay because of where I learned my english.

Not many things I miss about the UK, apart from my sons.

My husband misses a decent pork pie!

Call me a big kid, but I so miss going to decent theme Parks with the adrenaline rush of a good rollercoaster. Alse miss salted peanuts. They just don't taste the same here. Fast internet is another that I miss (how sad is that?)

The American schooling system tends to bastardizing the English language . She probably did not know how to spell it the "English" way. I use to confuse people when I would sometimes spell "cheque" this way.

Hi,
What I will miss in cyprus apart my family and friends :

A real Expresso !
Some shops like " Carrefour ( a real one with everything inside) leroy merlin, darty, autobacs.)
Take the car and go for a trip with some friends like going in Geneva to see the car exhibition.
Paris by night, and all the night club walking on the champs elysée avenue.
My job.
Drive on the left.
my 24mb connection.
And maybe many things else...

But what i wont miss

the automatic radar.
the policemen.
the petrol cost.
the 2hours of traffic.
the tax.
the stupidity of french politics.
the fear of unemployements.
I dont want go to far, and break the beautiful image of paris.


But in cyprus, i will be with the woman i love and this will make me forgot all that small details.
