Have you ever watched 'Fawlty Towers'? Remember the catchphrase ' Dont mention the war'?

You can expect a few fireworks pointing in your direction. Be prepared.

Welcome to the CF. A place of great fun, knowledge and 'misery' (for some)

I am not offended..... but NO RESPONSES mean others are not happy Never mind. They are all suffering from withdrawal symptoms brought on by the lack of football.

Well you won't be far from Cape Greko. That's a lovely place for a day out.

Cape Grecko is a National Park, with well-signposted walks around it 'the Athena Trail'. And sea caves. It's about five miles from Ayia Napa. Take drinks and snacks with you - there is nothing commercial there and nowhere to buy them apart from a small food van before you enter. There is a splendid picnic area there with breathtaking views.

And if you are going to venture North again, Salamis Ruins are not very far and definitely worth a visit. Doesn't cost much to go in.

If you want to drive further Kyrenia Harbour, Bellapaise Abbey and Hilarion Castle are the 3 things on the other coast I would recommend.

Looks like a nice place for a BBQ on the rocks. those hotels are worse than sand. They get everywhere.

I lived in Kyrenia for three years in the fifties. Been all around that part of Cyprus, but never to Cape Greko.
