Title: Dalaman Prices
Post by: Colwyn on April 14, 2016, 10:54:21 AM
It has been a long time since we had an update on food and drink prices at Dalaman. Perhaps someone passing through with a camera, or simply pen and paper, could make a note of current rates and then post on here. The latest I've seen were in Fethiye Times for July 2013 when a cheeseburger was equivalent to £9.39. Since this isn't the kind of thing I eat in the UK I can't tell how expensive this is - but it does seem a lot for a snack.

John.............you're priceless and blooming hilarious.

The funniest exchanges I have ever read on this forum involve you - and not one was meant to be funny......or was it?

If it was deliberate, it's brilliant and so, so Milliganesque.

If not, it's even funnier. It's just so WRONG somehow. (Like a poem entitled "A sailor's farewell to his horse" - it's wrong but why?).

Thank for starting my day so brightly, although I don't know whether I'm laughing with you or at you.

Either way......

RIGHT !!!!! - I'm hacked off now.

Under Profile, Account Settings, Look and Layout I have selected "Show most recent posts at top".

That means if a thread runs to 2 pages, page 2 is where the thread started. If a thread runs to 10 pages then page 10 is where the thread started.

Surprising post Colwyn.....

Back on Topic, well sort of, I was also surprised at this post from Colwyn.  I expect items of thought and provocation, yes let's call them cerebral posts.  This retail enquiry comes right out of left field for me .... what next Colwyn asking the price of Efes?

USB, you might have been less surprised if you had grasped that the title of the thread gave some indication as to its contents. Being a politically correct do-gooder I was hoping to gather material for a repeat of the campaign run by CBF many years ago, before your time UBT, to warn new-comers to the area (if there are to be any such this year) of the rank thievery on food and drink (yes, even Efes) that they are likely to encounter at Dalaman Airport and recommend local Fethiye/Calis small businesses that supply an alternative "Airport Meal Packages" for tourists. Of course, I could have posted about the fine speech in favour of EU membership that Jeremy Corbyn made the other day and how it is no surprise that he is now ahead of Cameron in public trust and popularity in the opinion polls - but that, perhaps, should be posted in a different section under a more appropriate title.

Ah Colwyn such a magesterial response, I doff my cap to you.  However, I have been around here for some years now - 12 I think? - and vividly recall the boycott of Dalaman airport food outlets and shops.  In fact I have continued to boycott the food outlets to this very day.  As I did with South African, Chilean goods (and their evil British backers) and boycotting holidays in  Franco's Spain or the Colonel's Greece, I will see this particular campaign through to the end.  Workers of the world unite, you have nothing to lose but your KFC.

As to Jeremys performance, his shoe heels must have been worn down to nothing as he was dragged to the fudged centre of British politics!  Using the word socialism in the same breath as defending the EU does not stand up to any sensible analysis for any credible left winger.  I'm afraid that Jeremy may have either:

a - swallowed the old trot line that it is not possible to build socialism in one country, and sees the EU as a necessary 'transitory' stage on the route to socialism.  Schoolboy politics at its worst...perhaps we should reintroduce the old SWP strapline from the Socialist Wonker amended to ... 'Neither Berlin nor Brussels'

or

b - We are hearing the voice of Jeremy the 'Labour Leader' trying to keep everyone (or most people in the party) happy and onside in this debate.  Rather than Jeremy the left wing politico who knows that there is no way the EU can reform itself democratically or economically, and that there is as much chance of it becoming socialist europe as Jeremy has of winning the next General Election as Labour's Leader.

Correct, and if you had that one unticked, it starts on page 1 with the opening post and the last post is on page 2. Entirely up to the member to decide which way they prefer.
