You did ave me worried a bit with all that being polite

Received a call from the local BOC branch yesterday asking me 'why'  we'd withdrawn most of our assets from them recently.............................they are apparently analysing customer reasons for taking their cash back 

It was tempting to be hugely sarcastic (but as you all know that is generally BM's forte) so contained myself my re-explaining the recent and ongoing CY banking crisis to them and also stating that I had thought the previous local manager was a jumped up sanctimonious twit and that also had had some bearing on our decision 

Nice of them to call though 

  What a nice polite lady you are LL

Makes you wonder how she manages to put up with the three stooges.

Good use of what bit of cash there is left - running a survey to analyse why people are taking their money out!! I have been having fun this week trying to open new bank accounts, I have been made to feel like a cross between Carlos the Jackal and Osama Bed Linen. Central Bank are now thinking about wether they will let me pay money in - unbelievable!

I was being nice because I know well the counter lady who was calling and she is generally so amiable and helpful - obviously been passed a thankless task by the Banker Committee that  it up in the first place..................

She promised to faithfully write down my comments and we decided the nearest Greek for sanctimonious was malaka (their version of wanker ) so felt I'd said my bit....for now

CIVIL SERVANTS are to stage a two-hour warning strike next week, protesting parliament’s decision to consider cutting their 13th month bonus by 3 per cent and to give the money to poor families.

Any reduction in public sector wages is illegal, said public servants union (PASYDY) chairman Glafkos Hadjipetrou yesterday, announcing the two-hour strike for next Thursday.

Un-fucking believable.........


we have more government workers here per head than anywhere else in europe...

And more carbon paper 

I was truly shocked the first time I experienced seeing a legal form being re-written by hand with carbon paper inserts - but now I don't even raise my eyes emoticon
