My mum is Greek Cypriot and my dad was English, my maternal grandmother was adopted so the trail kinda goes cold on mum's side her dad died when she was 4.....my paternal side Londoners born and bred....although my father spent a lot of years in Bargoid in wales with his maternal grandmother as his mother was a nurse in the Queen Alexander core during the war and his father was posted....My mothers family came from a little village called Ardana in Northern Cyprus sadly their home was taken during the turkish invasion and they were given an hour to pack and leave and never got to go back, most of my Cypriot relatives live in Aiya Napa now.
