Our adventures in the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus continue....
 
Leap year day and an invitation to lunch up in Karaman village. Our friends Barbara and Bruce have recently returned from a visit to Australia and they invited us up for Sunday lunch. The weather was pleasantly warm and so we were able to sit out on their terrace for pre-lunch drinks, this before Barbara surprised us all with the full Xmas dinner. It seemed that they had bought the turkey etc and then changed their
minds and gone out to eat on Xmas day, so we reaped the benefit, including the Xmas pud and brandy custard.Finally to close the month, I feel the that I have to pass comment on the Chandler's recent diatribe on their website, why, because I have received many e-mails asking for an opinion and also some calling us nasty Anglo-Saxon names, although I don't understand the reason for this as it has absolutely nothing to do with us, except possibly of course because we are that boring website that nobody reads. Frankly I find it very, very sad that two supposedly mature adults should resort to this sort of action, but then again we are not overly surprised. It was as result of this sort of vitriolic talk, about many people on this island, that our friendship with the Chandlers broke up and many other of their early friendships too. As for truth or fiction, we know only part and therefore are not in a position to pass further comment, we can only speak as we find and we find that both the Unwin's and Australian Construction acted professionally in our case
