My follow up appointment at the dentist was in the afternoon. We were meeting Margaretha in Lefkosa as she wanted to go to the dentist too and wasn’t sure where it was. So, we met up and she went through all the procedures for a new patient at Near East University. I went in to have my gums checked again. The professor said it was fine, did a bit more cleaning and he said he would see me again in 6 months. It had rained on the way to Lefkosa and the rain continued for the rest of the evening.

An interesting article in NCFP see link To say I am gobsmacked is an understatement. In fact I read it twice to see whether I had misunderstood something.  Apart from anything else, Mal and I were at the very first meeting of HBPG over 5 years ago. Since that time I can’t see anything on the housing market has improved.

I quote “This is to discuss the current problems within the residential property market which have had a disastrous effect on the local economy and have forced the government to implement its current austerity measure.”

It sounds as though the austerity measures are all our fault, after the vast amount of money we have all invested in this country. Make up your own minds!
