In the 50s and 60s the workers were lucky if they got more than 2 weeks plus public holidays.

Nicosia gets very hot and they tell the old to go to the shopping malls to keep cool :-D :-D :-D

Bit like Oz, Pat.

Although it's better now, everyone used to go missing from Christmas until school started - big summer hols.

Almost always the brewery workers or drivers used to strike in December ... they knew when to get what they wanted. :-D
