THE NAKED PHOTO ALBUM - RED HOT AND COOL - IN CYPRUS! This page has some pictures taken in 1996 during my first 'exotic' holiday since the late 80's. I had some stupidly hot cool times in Cyprus!

When you're finished with this page, use the links below to find more stuff: When I was young... Red Hot and Cool in Cyprus! Who are you calling a cycle-path? It's true, I am a real wheel nut! I work(ed) hard for a living. How do you get two Whales in a Mini...? If you want to get ahead... Wild-Wild-West-Country. Two go Mad in Madeira! Other fun-fun-fun in the sun-sun-sun. Every album has them! Home sweet home. Just a stones throw away... Holiday North of the Border. So far, Herstmonceux good. Barrr-Ceeee-Lo-Naaaa! Rhodes signs. Milan and/or bust.

PAUL'S THOUGHT: WHEN YOU NEED HELP, SEEK IT.

On the left: Here I am in Cyprus with Judith, looking as cool as you like on a hired Honda 650. We went off-roading on this beast all over the place and got lost and worried. We became stuck in an exit-less valley, heading for glimpsed villages in the distance, only to find them deserted. After seeing five burnt-out cars and not a single human soul in three hours we started to wonder how much petrol we had in reserve...	In the middle: After a very long ride we eventually tracked down the Avagas Gorge, and this is me at the end of it. Well, I say the end of it, what I mean is this is as for as we went up it. It was very nice to walk in it's cool shade after hours of 110° Farenheit heat. I did get very sun-burnt on this holiday. Oh yes, and I never want to hear 'Bazooka' music ever again!!	On the right: And all on my tod. It may have been reckless, but it was a complete blast to ride without a helmet. I remember bombing along by the coast, following the sweep of a bay on the smooth tarmac, the air roaring in my ears (if not my hair.) Ah, memories! For more motorcycle mayhem, click here for a 3.1Mb Mpeg video I shot on a moped in 2002.
We just about survived the holiday, although I still carry the scars (both emotional and physical) of a very hot air-cooled engine. Places to visit: Fairly interesting country with lots of ruins. Don't miss the Tombs of the Kings and Avagas Gorge (if you can find it!)

PAUL'S THOUGHT: IT IS BETTER TO HAVE LOVED
ANT POST THAN NEVER LOVED A GHOUL.

Here I am, lightly toasted on a bed of spring vegetables, as a Zombie. People without imagination may say 'No change there then'. I have no idea what the heads were about. There was a sign but it was in Greek.
