Thx all, just such a good deal here in UK at mo, a decision is should we wait until we arrive and exchange as usual, or will it go down by the time we arrive.


I think we will wait.and risk it

The Markets will be jittery until they know the results of the elections on the 7th June. These are the last elections until 2019 so are important.

It may go higher than 4.0 but I cant see it going the other way much before then.

If it does go down and I get say 1.8 next month then I'll still be happy.  I don't drink so the price of Efes doesn't affect me...lol

But that would mean opening a turkish bank account with all the hassle which at my age I can do without. I'm more than happy with what I got.  :)

Sunlover, Şekerbank is almost across from HSBC on the back road in Fethiye. Look for a rather regal looking building, very understated advertising. Nice bank, usually very quiet.
