The Sisters Of Mercy not playing Greece

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

The funniest is that they were dressed as Catholic nuns, and Greeks are 98-99% Greek Orthodox :lol: :lol: :notworthy:
From the other hand, Silence you see what happened some days ago near Saint Panteleimon in Athens... :innocent:

The southwest, actually.

Not to say I have any problem with men in dresses (yummmmmmmmm) ( :oops: ), but not that lot, thank you very much. :urff: :urff: :urff:
And also wrote:Britons account for about 15 per cent of the 15 million tourists who visit Greece every year and some have gained notoriety for drunken and occasionally violent behaviour.
Guess they're trying to give obnoxious American tourists a run for their money. :lol:

The Americans spend a lot of money on their Cultural Ambassadors.

To be fair, it seems as if no single country is free from, nor has a monopoly upon, exporting it's most irritating and annoying citizens for two weeks in a foreign land once a year.

Some say that foreign travel narrows the mind wonderfully, but for whom?
I don't necessarily agree with everything I think.

You'd think a nation that elevated pederasty to an art form would be rather blase about a bit of mild cross-dressing, wouldn't you? :|

Actually, the Turks were more to blame for the pederasty business - the Greeks historically preferred theirs, erm, full-grown. :innocent:
