    Çiftlikdüzü Restaurant

    Saturday during daytime, we did what we are best in, relaxing around the pool. We had decided to go out with David, Özlem and Talia. Amalia and Talia go very well together, and we would like them to meet again. This time we went to Çiftlikdüzü restaurant, my favourite local cypriot place. The restaurant is a local rustic place, with the best handmade, from the bottom, organic food. The place is run by my old friends, Leyla and Orhan Güvenlier with their children Olgun and Muzzi. Muzzi is at present being educated as a chef in a Famagusta school. Olgun is doing his compulsory military service in Turkey at the…

    Friday started with picking up Stian, Kristine and children at the Ercan airport outside of Nicosia. Arrival was at 1.40 am from Oslo with a stopover in Istanbul. Met them to aid with baggage and look up the hire car. They were out around 2 am and we started walking around the car park searching for the car. Rental cars in this country is normally just delivered to the car park, with keys on one of the frontwheels and big sign inside with your name on. Cars are returned the same way, just leave it in the car park with keys on the frontwheel. Only issue of importance, is never…

About

This is the blog of the every day life of a humble, reasonably happy elderly, retired man, also known as a grumpy old git.

The blog was started for 2 reasons.  First, my missus claims I’m starting to be forgetful.  Keeping a blog will make it easier to remember.  Second, as I keep the blog on my own server, it will help me staying closer to my old profession.

The blog will be updated at random, sometimes daily, sometimes not, just when I feel for it.

After a long time of considerations, I have abandoned the idea of having a multi language blog.  This simply takes to much time and effort.  Translation is now based on Google translate, not foolproof, but will give you an idea of what it’s all about.   The blog is mainly meant for my English speaking friends, and therefore the posts are written in English.  However, feel free to comment in any language
