We have owned our apartment in Calis since 2005 and having benefitted from this incredibly useful and often entertaining forum I thought it was time that I registered! We don't get out there nearly as often as we would like but are planning to ease off on the rentals and spend some more down time there in the future. A huge thank you to all of you who have helped us out over the years with your sage advice. This is the first place I come to when I need to sort something out in Turkey. Having had mostof the standard disasters and issues over the years I am hoping I might be able to put something back now!
