I see nobody has followed up on the brandy-sour icecream. There was a bar on the front at Kyrenia where we would repair after an afternoon's sailing. The idea was a very cold icecream, over which one would pour a brandy-sour. The icecream warmed a little, and the drink cooled. A delicious combination.
Another thing that comes to mind, does anyone remember the UN convoy that ran daily between Nicosia and Kyrenia, through the Turkish area? The purpose was to enable contact for families and traders between the two Greek Cypriot areas. Our aim was to try and get off work early enough to beat this. It travelled, with a UN escort front and rear, at the speed of the slowest vehicle. Cypriot family car?
