A pair of swim shoes if you like swimming in the sea but not getting in and out due to all the pebbles.


You have reminded me to start a list for next summer before I forget.

Easier and cheaper to buy swim shoes in Turkey, bought a pair in a shop on calis promenade for 3quid as against 9 here.

Stick blender, good pair of strong scissors, lightweight cooking scales, sharp grater with handle (microplane) and garlic press. Oh and one of these! For those undies you're not supposed to hang out on view!

Jacqui's handle for the cooker reminded me - a decent set of saucepans - most importantly with the standard handle. Turkish ones have two tiny loop handles which are just great for burning your wrists when you try to drain your potatoes, and don't require 3 hands/double jointedness to do it.

Echo girl. Aldi and Liddle often match those prices. Good point though. Saves on weight I guess.

We tend to buy our cotton bedding and pillows over here as we'll. Much better quality for the price.

Chris, you can electric zappers in the Supermarkets over in Fethiye. We used to bring over candles, but since buying the zapper we find that much better.  Very happy to hear the click when a mozzie is electrocuted.
Lotty, we bought one of the those little gadgets (to use on our washing line) over in the local area.  I think it may have been in the D.I.Y. shop. 
Non Iron bedsheets are great as the local sheets are a bugger to iron.   ;) ;D
