Courtesy Titles

Sir

Hazard sent me the link to this article about courtesy titles. It talks about all those Mr., Mrs., Dr., etc titles from the point of view of website designers and developers. Very interesting read.

I have never used these on any of my websites. It is yet another field to program and yet another boring choice for the user. I am not strong on the legal side of the question, but I don’t think anyone will enforce any law which might be covering the issue in Cyprus. That is, I am in doubt if such a law exist around here.

Petra tou Romiou and Kurium

Today I had a lot of driving around historical places. Olga’s two cousines (Tatiana Babenko and Natalia Babenko) came to Cyprus for a few days, so we are back to the guided tour schedule.

So, firstly we went ot Petra tou Romiou, which is also known as Aphrodite’s birthplace. It is a very photogenic place and the only thing which gets in the way is a crowd of tourists. But than again, if it wasn’t for them I wouldn’t go there today. Secondly, we went to Kurium. We started by walking around the ruins of the theatre and everything else. Then we went down to the Kurium beach. It was too late for me and Olga to swim, but girls jumped into cold water none-the-less. Tour finished with some traditional kebab (Olga and I didn’t have it for years now…) and ice cream in Limassol.

I have made a bunch of pictures along the way. All of them are available here.
