Instead of moaning about the cost of the residency,why can't people who actually live here full time take a more positive outlook,and take into account the money they do'nt have to shell out by living in Turkey.
Council tax springs to mind, TV licenses,second mortgage to get your car repaired,etc,etc.
I'me quite happy paying the money out. I'me living in a country that up to a point has'nt gone PC barmy,I'me not tracked by cameras everywhere I walk or drive,I'me not housebound by snow,I eat fresh fruit and veg for pennies,the sun shines 90% of the time,need I carry on.?
