In the middle of this combination of nines which was the day I learn by CAIC that have already failed the competition prizes A surreal summer madmen who organized the Internet are parents. Well. I was one of the 3 graced with a shirt. And while originally the term for claiming the prize ended in July ... just the CAIC good saves my life, because he had today expanded.
My story in which the title winner had " Stif, Stif "
When we were in Cyprus my girlfriend and I, we always went to dinner at the same restaurant. The 2nd or 3rd day they arrive they say
Lek: Kalinighta (as you type, which becomes "Goodbye, good night").
Waitress (English): Nooooooooo, kalispera, kalinighta is when you go ...
Follow the conversation, we sat on the terrace, we take note and suddenly comes the obligatory question:
Waitress: "Where are you ?
Lek: Spain
Waitress (eyes wide, turning the head inside): STEEEEEEEEEEEVE! SPANISH! Sale
a foreigner inside the restaurant's bar.
Steve (pidgin English): oh, hello, English? I English. I was working in Spain. Mallorca. And Lanzarote. Very beautiful country. Many friends. My name is Steve. (Now mad). Stif, Stif! Stif not call me, call me Steeeeeve (forcing the pronunciation). All my friends call me Stif English, but my name is Steve. Wait ...
Log back into the bar ... out a minute.
Steve (reaching out): Take, I no longer am going to use.
We loose 3 to 4 euros in coins. This was in 2004, Cyprus has just entered the EU. We had a good time chatting with Steve, but it is the 1st time I paid for dinner at a restaurant and being English. Although he called Stif.
