it does look impressive and there is some activity! We were told of these plans around '92 by a then restauranteur - long since changed career! We did then say we should live so long but it looks like we might- insallah! its the only reason now that we're hanging on to our place !

Who came up with that idea..!

It's so good that it will never happen. Too many taxi and dolmus noses to avoid putting out of joint. The bay is made for a noddy train, awful as they are  :)

On a related subject mentioned by UBT - I don't think I have ever been "hassled" on Calis prom by the restaurant guys, not even once.
I suppose it is how you define 'hassle', if it is a guy standing beside his menu board who with a gentle wave of his arm asks you to view his menu ... no problem that is not hassle.  If it is someone - usually a young man in his 20s - jumping out in front of you, or just to the side of you, as you stroll along the prom chatting to wife/friend/ relative and then speaking to you like you are his new best MATE ever, in an attempt to entice you into the restaurant/bar where he is employed, then that is hassle and unfortunately I seem to have had my fair share of it at Calis but not on the new prom and strangley enough in Hisaranu, where it is, I believe, strictly verbotten!!

I'm wondering what's wrong with me as I too have never been hassled in this way.

Then Steve, like Scunner, you have led a charmed life when going along Calis Beach, and good luck to you.  Perhaps I am just unlucky or perhaps its because I attract that sort of attention... who knows, but I do get it.

Don't know if this is true but friends of ours told us it worked for them last year , if you walk beach side of the lines down the middle of the Prom paving then the guys outside the restaurants will not ask you to look at there menu or hassle you some sort of local agreement anyone else heard this  ?

It's strange, if we walk down the front in the summer, we always get the "come and look at our menu" speel, even after over 5 years of living here. When we walk our dogs down the front most don't even look at us , let alone invite us in.

A few years back we were told that the 'puller in' people could not go over that line - if they did the restaurant was closed - which I think happened to the Serkul 1 when little Mehmet was out front.
