All the girls killed were prostitutes!!! No it doesnt make it excusable, but it doesnt put traffic wardens, policewomen, """

What a bloody shame that you put Traffic wardens in the same group as Police. Traffic wardens are the SCUM of the earth , they are vermin , Hyenas who prowl on the innocent ready to pounce. Good riddance to bloody traffic wardens.

We could do with a few better ones in cyprus, get the bastards that park on the pavement and force people to walk on the roads coz there are double yellow lines...

But you have nothing to fear from a traffic warden if you park legally

G.Man , British traffic wardens are daily issuing tickets illegally , that is a fact ! They get away with it because people do not challenge the parking ticket. We have vans delivering goods through out London , in a loading bay you are given legally 20 minutes , but oh no not the bloody traffic wardens , they stick a ticket on your van before you can say fuck you .
I hate the system that allows traffic wardens to extract money by FORCE ! They do nothing to alleviate the traffic congestion , they are there purely to con you out of 50 quid. They are for me PUBLIC ENEMY NUMERO UNO. !

It isn't the traffic wardens - it's local government. People taking jobs as TW's probably can't get anything else; they are automatons, doing what they are told.

Now, a real waste of space, and more importantly money (although, admittedly they can't f@#k you up like TW's) are so called "community support police officers". In my town that means overweight women, strolling around in pairs (although today they were in fours !!!) gossiping and window shopping. No, I'm not a woman hater - just the opposite - but this is my council tax.

What was wrong with the poll tax anyway ?. In all other areas of life you pay for what you use/get. Imagine if your flights to Cyprus were costed on the value of your house ?.

As has been said elsewhere - only in UK.

No really Miltiades - don't hold back - say what you think!!!

I think they are all lovely people who just want to make the roads a safer place for the law abiding citizens like you and me - rather like those nice speed cameras!

Well, lets start with govt office issues, registering an imported car for example... then we can move on swiftly to the standards of driving... plenty of traffic jams in the major towns due to people not obeying simple instructions from traffic lights or box junctions.. then lets look at utility bills, £465 for 2 months electricity in summer... eventually reduced slightly, but not enough to make it reasonable... then there is the local workmen, that add 30% to the price of anything if you are not a cypriot.. the build quality of the houses... 2 years to get a set of deeds, only to find out the developer had mortgaged the property 6 weeks before he went bust, and 18 months after he sold the property to you... almost getting run over by people who make illegal turns in the town centres without looking to see if anyone was there... hitting a kerb because somone on a scooter was travelling the wrong way down a one way street...

Hey its lovely here, but lets not pretend its without problems.... it just has good weather and problems...

:wink:


Like I said - I just don't believe it is worse than the UK. You have to be extremely careful but do you really believe UK drivers are all angels or property developers and builders are all honest upstanding people? There is even a TV programme here dedicated to rotten builders and another for bad drivers - although Cypriot driving is an experience I must admit.

Brit drivers cannot compete per capita with the diabolical cypriots, even the police think most cypriot women shouldnt be allowed near a car, and don't get them started on the village twin cab drivers...

The thing is with the uk properties is they have an NHBC guaranteee and when you buy them you have the deeds, same day, no outstanding mortgages... just the dodgy build to deal with and snagging...

Ho would you feel if you handed over cyp£100k for a house, only to find 2 years later a bank holds the deeds, and has paid the builder cyp£60k against that house as security... AND its falling apart, has multiple damp issues and everytime it rains your lounge floods...

Yes I have seen some brit horror stories as well, homes built on landfills etc, and have to be abandoned due to methane gas problems, so I know its not all one sided, but you have to be aware of the problems..

I think cyprus just has different problems and great weather...

I also think that the cyprus issues arent half as annoying as the uk ones, but they have just got speed cameras, so who knows how it will pan out... and parking tickets have been increased to cyp£50 a throw... so watch out for the wardens as well

The UK is no longer a democratic country unless your a refuge or from another EU member country seeking work then its "BUTLINS"........but hey........ can you blame these people for moving from poorer countrys to take part in the Great British "free for all merry go round". In my eyes the UK is now run by a political dictatorship,I cant think of any other country in the world today who now in 2006 dictates as to what you can and cannot do,if your aggrieved at how you've been treated or handled regards an issue you may have found yourself in dont look to your county or distric court for justice (unless your a sheriff f--ckin officer), you now have to go the europian court of human rights to get satisfaction,what happened to the good old Brittish juditial system. Ridculious taxes and openly robbing its people more and more as every day/year that passes.......hence why im moving to Cyprus,not thats it much cheaper from the outlook but with yearly househod running costs,taxed earnings,petrol,cigs,alcohol etc being at least less than half the UK's prices,plus you have the added bonus of the sun and beautiful sea to cheer you up each and every day and thats something Brittian can't ever offer you !!!!!!!
