The shiptari are grinning from ear to ear, I went to Struga for the day and fuck me dead if they don't appear like the cat that got the cream. But they aren't the worst offenders, the literati of Skopje, Bitola and Ohrid... koj pobrgo da izedat govno predavnicko. They are on TV espousing the benefits of the agreement and how good it will be for the country, they fill the pages of the print publications with their traitorous bile. But because their tone is quite moderate and tempered, they aren't met with any hostility or counter arguments.
Kafanite se polni, duri prepolni. For some reason, Macedonians from Australia have descended en masse into Ohrid and Bitola this year. I saw people in Ohrid from here that I hadn't seen in decades. In days gone by, you could tell when a stranec was shouting anyone and everyone from a mile away, this time though, the places were so full, you couldn't tell jack.
Someone within Zaev's crew offered my cousin (a former police officer based out of Ohrid) 3000 euro a month to be a part of a special counter terrorism unit. The funding for this outfit wasn't out of government revenue, he couldn't determine where the money was coming from. In any case, he turned them down, even though it meant walking away from ten times the pay he got whilst on the job.
The priest I mentioned in my post yesterday was adamant he saw someone that looked like the polling station people drop a ballot box that was already full of ballots. He reckons he went to the local police and they told him to stop drinking so much (bloke has liver problems that preclude him from drinking completely). But not long after my conversation with him I heard the same thing from other people.
