    Default Patriarch reporting from Cyprus

    Wow. Found a computer in Cyrpus. Just logging in to see whats happening.

    Oh yeah, I got my info wrong, apparently.

    I was shipped to Cyprus after enlisting. We got a day or two of getting used to the place. I talked to some of the Cypriot National Guard soldiers. They're some nice guys. We're pretty well welcomed here. Training starts tomorrow. We will be working with some Cypriot National Guard men. After training, probably just patrolling Nicosia. Well, just dropping bye. I'll try to pinch off a few answers to anyones questions.

    Pssst, I'm secretly in love with that gun, I've even seen a real one in a museum(about the closest I usually get to guns ).

    Nice to hear you're fine pater and I envy you for the chance to fire a P90.

    Have you seen the British bits? The Sovereign Base Areas?
    It was not theirs to reason why,
    It was not theirs to make reply,
    It was theirs but to do or die.

    I got an hour before training.


    Yes, that gun was a P90.

    I have not seen any British soldiers, but I have seen the base upon entering Cyprus.

    I have not met any Canadian peacekeepers, but I have met Argentinans.

    No, I have not seen any Turks.

    The people here are great. They're kind, they accept us. I even got invited to a party in Pascha.

    Dreams...Well, some of them better remain dreams.
    Ja mata, TosaInu. You will forever be remembered.

    Proud

    Been to:

    Swords Made of Letters - 1938. The war is looming in France - and Alexandre Reythier does not have much time left to protect his country. A novel set before the war.

    A Painted Shield of Honour - 1313. Templar Knights in France are in grave danger. Can they be saved?

    I'm sick of following my dreams. I'm just goin ask em where they're going and hook up with them later.
