Sunday, December 23/2012

Obviously rained again in the night, and in fact a bit of drizzle in the morning. The rainiest year we've ever experienced here, though not cold. M up to ask if we heard the horrific accident in the night. Collision about 1:30 am at the corner involving, apart from the victims, six police cars, ambulances, and fire engine. The people had to be cut out and the wreckage gathered rather than simply towed. A very high rate of accidents in Cyprus - and a very low rate of police willing to interfere until there has actually been an accident.
