CYPRUS: We are trying to locate some lovely friends we met recently while on holiday in Cyprus. Their names are Paul and Caren/Karen.
Surname unknown. Paul is 57 and was a dental technician. He now works for a boat-building company in Portsmouth. He is a keen DIY person.
Caren is a few years younger than Paul and she now works in a school assisting children with their physio and at one time she worked in admin for the schools in the area.
They have one son who still lives at home with them and is in his twenties.
We are led to believe that they are from the Portsmouth area outside the town, near to some reclaimed gravel ponds.
They were on holiday from April 8-15, 2009. They booked on lone with First Choice and flew from Gatwick to Larnica to the resort of Protaris.
We met in the local bar in Protaris called Rockafellas. We hit it off straight away and by the end of the evening were good friends and enjoyed their company.
We had similar interests and pastimes; we made arrangements to meet the next day to exchange details but due to circumstances did not.
