Whilst having a wander around Antalya yesterday I noticed an advertising sign for a doctor. On the first floor balcony on the left of the pink apartment block is a sign proclaiming that this is where you can have a consultation with

Doktor Mustapha Kunt - Ortopedi ve Travmotoloji Uzmani



If you doubt me, Google the name.

Anyone else got any that they've seen themselves? Not copied and pasted from the www.

I work for the Coroner as does my mate Tracy.  When we go into court, the Coroner says:
"I'll now leave you with Mrs. Hart and Mrs. Organ".  He hasn't seen the humour in it yet but we are collapsed in laughter!
