Held sometime in October I believe TTN.
Sorry, further minor thread again ... Limassol Wine Festival was definitely in September last time I was there...

.. and despite many refillls of the small glass I still remember our group pausing to partake of a kebab from one of the stalls in the grounds and the err incident which quickly followed ...

Scene: three 'tired and emotional' chaps munching happily on kebabs when

Fourth chap says "What do you reckon to these then lads?"

Three x mumbles of something approximating to "Lovely grub, needed this, hic" etc

Fourth chap (in very loud voice) "Excellent.. Glad you're all enjoying this donkey kebab so much!

Enter very rapidly stage left an aggrieved stallholder ..

Stavros: "Donkey? What do you mean donkey? Are you accusing me of selling you fine gentlemen donkey meat in the kebabs you are so obviously enjoying. Would I do that to you / What kind of person do you take me for? etc etc etc etc etc"

Fourth mate (being genuinely sincere): "Yup it's donkey alright. I grew up in India mate and I've had it loads of times. Stop getting so upset - you've cooked it really well which is why we're all enjoying it so much"

Exit stage a very puzzled and suddenly quietened stallholder...
