yes we are out there :-) sort of :-) but only for three months of the year, namely may / june ... sept/ october.
We are `addicts` and play ( my wife and I ) here in the UK, and a lot `on line` BCL.
We called in to the Fethiye Bridge Club about a year ago, the club is open daily from 2pm to 5/6 pm every day. They were of course all turkish, but unlike in the UK they were all men. They were very friendly towards us ( we didnt play there ) and said please call in and play anytime.I was happy to frequent there for a couple of afternoons a week during our summer visits, but my wife declined, she said she might feel slightly uncomfortable there as it was all men, which was understandable.
So Angela, if anytime you fancy going there with your partner next year, please make contact with us as to when, as hopefully with another woman present, my wife may partner me there :-)
Also if you get any response from any ex pats who want to play, and there is enough of them, we would be delighted to find another source of Bridge out there... providing its for `duplicate` and not `rubber` :-)
We are average club standard players, who play basic Acol with weak two`s ( although I personally prefer Benji )
please keep in touch, and tell us if you get any progress with your Bridge enquiries
