Chap Lurking

[Piscoe]

Whilst walking home the other night my wife and her three friends noticed a chap lurking around in front of them between the Aqua park and Carretta Apart. He appeared to dissapear into the reed bushes on the side of the road. She mentioned he had a mobile phone with a light on it and appeared to be shining it and watching them intensely. They semed to think he was going to flash at them (I have no idea how they came to that conclusion)as they walked past. They had the foresight to cross the road and cross back further entered the Carretta Apart.

The chap is described as being particularly short and with short hair. This may be nothing but it may be a good idea to avoid this stretch for the time being and if you do spot someone hanging round go into Carretta and inform Doctor John or his son Cem who will undoubtedly challenge the fellow.

Hi Pete

Did they tell John?

[tinkerman]

Im across the road if she needs anything Pete, what night was this and what time?

[Piscoe]

Hi All,

Yes she told John and Cem went and had a look but he'd gone.

John did say anyone is welcome to go into his place if they spot anything suspiscious.

Andy, thanks she knows where your place is. It was around midnight on Sunday.

Be careful at ATM,s especially late at night.We met a young couple last week ,who had their card stolen in Calis at one of the ATM,s.It seems that there was one to the right that was clocking the PIN and another to the left that distracted them appearing to be trying to help them with the Turkish symbols.When the card and money came out they snatched both,this was about 11:50 pm and to make matters worse they used the card again after midnight,they only found this out after contacting the bank to cancel the card.It was their first time in Turkey and they were very down over the whole episode,we tried to lift them a bit and explained that generally it,s a safer place than the UK and that they had been extremely unlucky.

Jeez, what's happening with Calis at the mo! People pretending to be police and robbing people, more people than ever being robbed at ATM's,people being mugged, burgled etc, strange men lurking about. I don't remember seeing so many 'not nice' things happening last year?

[moggy]

you're right J1,Calis is still a cracking place and I'd sooner be here than any where else that Ive been but it seems that you need to be on your guard quite a bit more.As scunner said the punishment over here has been relaxed,with a view to getting into Europe,and so the fear of getting caught has done the same.Midnight Express was a  great deterant but from what I've heard, it was never shown in Turkey.

[Scunner]

It wasn't even made in Turkey and the Turkish actors weren't Turkish! The film shows shocking homosexual rape, biting off tongues and finally the American (who's account the film came from) murdering the head guard. None of these happened in the original written account.

That's Midnight Express done and dusted, what about Midnight Rushlurker...

[Jenny1]

I know Moggy, it's a shame. Like you say, will be on my guard a lot more this year, always felt safe there, still can't wait to be there though!!
