Our adventures in the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus continue....
Richard, Joan and I were invited out to dinner last night by Tom & June Howarth. They had unfortunately bought some land around four years ago and had been seriously ripped off both with the price and deeds of ownership which never materialised. well with the aid of a good aggressive lawyer we were able to help them out and they had come over to get their deeds and see once again the piece of land they now own.
They had asked us to select the restaurant so we came up with one of the newe
st places on the island Number 14 in the old town of Girne. The people who have restored this villa; and it is beautifully done, used to own Efendi House restaurant. They have just opened up their gardens as a summer restaurant and the quality of the food, the ambiance etc justified everything that people have been saying about it. We sat on a table with Tom & June and ate a very scrumptious meal. Be warned you will need to book this place for that special evening out, many days or weeks in advance. Word will spread and it will be fully booked.
That was last evening, but today was the sad day of Bob's funeral. It is difficult to believe that the man we all knew has passed away so suddenly and still we have no knowledge of how or why it happened, the post mortem results have not been released yet. The funeral was very well attended and his ex-wife and son had come over from UK.
