i think our mutal friend "Attila"/ Commando must have evolved over the years from being an introvert to a table dancer! seroiusly he is a lovely chap dont know if he lives up to his alais name of Commando, is that what you call a man who "goes bareback" :D

That is my understanding of the term in urban parlance. However, my feeling is that he was quite possibly called it because of his preference for the wearing of camouflage trousers. Maybe others can confirm this or offer a different reason for the name.

He was always a very nice fella, I wouldn't like you to think I was saying anything else. My memory of him was as a painfully shy guy, very little English and more there to empty ashtrays and hose the floor than to entertain. Mind you, I remember fire eater Murat (Post Office, Bus Stop, U2) as a shy, very reserved guy too  :)

I see murat & savas included too on the pic, good old days. commando did work in meeting point once over shortly after Bus Stop days, havent seen him for years.
Agree with Keith how shy he was would say Boo to any one nice to see him back in calis, someone did say he had gone off to be a farmer

Agreed, nothing against Chinese Breeze but the Bus Stop was great fun. I remember it opening and we also had the weekly CBF meet ups there.

Before that it was the Otantik which was also a lovely place.

In the past a perfect evening was a meal at La Terace after being ushered up the stairs by Serkan and then after our meal a drink downstairs at the Bus Stop... Those where the days miss both places very much.
