Just 2 days ago I was reminded why I don't want to go back to London. I was driving down a busy road in Limassol, when a large Jamaican family (very rare to see in Limassol) was waiting to cross the road, the head of the family (or so I suppose) huge black guy with dreads already had his foot in the road so I curtiously decided to stop and let the whole bunch cross, he stopped and stared at me not sure wether to cross or not so I waved them across to which he took offence, bowled over the road and loudly shouted something (which I didn't understand) obviously a snide remark and all the rest of his family laughed at this comment and I was left wondering why the F**K I even stopped in the first place....as I drove on I was thankfull that I don't have to deal with idiots like that on a daily basis. I never understood the chip on some of these guys shoulder....I was not brought up to be racist but incidents like these truly do not help.

London is the best place in the world. Its a shame because most Londoners never leave their own road, let alone go roaming the streets.

Cyprus, I like about everything in that country! Smile

and I already "tested" it for 3,5 years.....

Maybe there is some other place in the world which I would like as well, but since its a bit hard to check the whole world...... Wink

I agree with you moose, regards kids today, when I went to school when your teacher walked in, you shut and stood up, there is no disipline. A lot of it is down to parents, my mum is 72 and I wouldn't dare speak to her, like I've heard some kids speak to their parents, but then again listen to the way some parents speak the their kids.

I also went to Grammer school in Derby, this country has gone to the dogs, pensioners getting mugged, you can't walk down the street without being abused by some kid or other, and if you say anything back to them, they're gonna tell their dad, so I say tell him and send him round. We can't wait to retire to northern cyprus, and get back to a respectful and peaceful way of life.

I know this sounds bad, but it is quite true what both of you say.

At the beginning of my time at secondary school, we used to stand up when a teacher walked in, by the time i left school, teachers were being shouted at, by the kids.

I think it does have a lot to do with the way you are brought up..... but the whole rights-basedculture we are now becoming, does not help the situation....everyone thinks they are a 'victim'. So they think they have some kind of vendeta against everyone, a chip on their shoulder...idiots i say...just get on with it, life is a bitch (and then you marry one... hehe)
