THe last time I heard of a fıgure for expats or ex anything was around 7000 living in Fethiye area.That was about 2 years ago.

[kayakebab]

That's about what I thought too, I think the whole population of Fethiye is around 84000
So percentage wise it's just over 8%

Don't get upset by them Ray, they're only playing. The don't mean any harm.
I know it can be annoying when all you want is a straight answer, but some people on some forums are just downright spiteful, we don't get that on CBF, they're basically all nice people x

The Forum is a little clique and unless people are in your circle, all they can expect is abuse or rude remarks!

Ironically the only example of that (rude remarks) in this topic was from you.

Ah I know why you lot, don't know of anyone who has moved away - you only know keep a close circle of friends, whom you drink and gossip with. The others, who didn't engage in this manner, you wouldn't know.  The Forum is a little clique and unless people are in your circle, all they can expect is abuse or rude remarks!

Your actually quite right Ray1951-The Forum can be very cliquey and insular and abusive and politically incorrect. Equally it can be helpful, informative and very funny.
Its typical of any group , society or family you may be involved with.
you do have the option to not take part.
Personally I like the mix. It can be better than Coronation street at times

People call every forum on every subject in the World 'cliquey'. I see it more simply than that. Some of us know each other and some don't.

Just like life itself.
