Day off from the dentist. J on errands, me doing more or less nothing. Reading, etc. Evening television, in place of films, pathetic ten minute English news, etc, is, on all channels, President Anastasiades presenting his version of the breakdown, in Switzerland, of reunification talks between North and South Cyprus. Of course it's all Greek to us, but suspicion is that former President Christofias has it pretty well right when he says that for 70 years Greek Cypriot citizens have been fed totally unrealistic expectations about what is possible.
