30th May 2010

All packed and ready to go I headed off for Stansted for my CTA flight (yes, they are still flying!) A good flight until I went to duty free on landing at Ercan. Three kiosks and I chose the middle one who wanted me to pay £3 more a pack of cigarettes, than the price I paid when I left. I paid the money and then went to Kaner who gave me the correct price, so I returned to the first kiosk and asked for my money back and also asked him why he thought he could get away with charging me more than he should have done and what a welcome for tourists, yes, they rip you off the  minute you step foot on North Cyprus soil. I gave him the change he had given me and he handed over ONE £20 note, no I had given him two. Well tried again! I just got the Cyprus shrug and gave him the cigarettes back. BEWARE of being overcharged on entering Ercan airport.

I arrived home and later collected Rosie from the kennels, as usual she went mad.
