Larnaca Rentals

Personally I think she was deranged and should be in a straight jacket.
She nearly caused an accident by trying to overtake me going out of a side street onto a main street right into the oncoming traffic. When I told her she would end up killing herself and some innocent people as well with her driving she flipped completely. She sreamed and shouted about this being Cyprus not England and went so red in the face I though she was going to explode. Other cypriots nearby stood with their mouths open shaking thier heads at her. One of them gave me the biggest grin and winked at me at if to say to take no notice shes mad

There are good and bad in all nationalities. Expect to be treated as you treat others. Try to integrate and mix with other nationalities, not just stay with the Expats. If you try to import the UK into your Cyprus lifestyle, why bother going to Cyprus?
Limassol is very cosmopolitan, so integration will be easy.

lol! A friend of mine, who had to deal with a similar situation, got out of the car and handed the woman her business card telling her " You have a problem, I am a psychologist, give me a call". I told her I need to get a few of her cards to hand out to drivers like that.

With Nicosia locals I could go on about them like a "nothern monkey" would go on about a "southern fairy" or vice versa but to put them all under one category would be ridiculous. I had a bad experience in Bristol with the locals, should I now think all Bristolians are thugs?

I think you may just be unlucky with your work colleagues? I would travel the island a bit, especially visit some villages, I recommend Omodos or Lefkara.

Limassol carnival is also round the corner, that's a good way to integrate with locals a bit, maybe try and get involved with one of the floats from Nicosia? Kids would love it.

hey leave us "northern monkies" out of this, we have enough on our plates with the "southern fairies"!
