Yellow watermelons and a stuck cement mixer ... all in TRNC

Here's a couple of amusing-ish photos that Turkish Cypriots are currently sharing on Facebook etc.
Firstly in the Karpaz village of Yeşilköy, a vegetable grower has successfully grown 40 yellow watermelons from seeds that his friend brought him from Taiwan. The grower stated that the conditions here in Cyprus suited the melons and that they tasted "çok güzel". Apparently he intends to increase the yield for next year. (Please note the photo below is not one of "the karpuz in the Karpaz" - please refer to the actual Kıbrıs Gazetesi report for that)
Secondly, yesterday a cement mixing truck got stuck in an underpass being built in Gönyeli. I presume the underpass is part of the Metehan-to-Haspolat northern ring-road currently being contructed. In any case, the mixer was just a little bit too big for the tunnel.
