The cost of Effes

[saoirse]

Its easy to be sniffy and suggest that the Turkish political situ should be foremost to everyones mind- fact is for us tourists, rightly or wrongly it isnt .

When people are sitting with a beer in hand or enjoying 2 weeks sun with their family on Calis beach they don't for a second have " who's best Akp or MHP" in their mind

Yes, but, if the present Turkish P.M. goes on as he is doing now, gets voted back in and becomes ever more powerful... for beer in hand... read as lemonade in hand.

I want to start a thread about the cost of TUBORG on 5tl on draft at Lukka

Sorry to be sniffy but it's far more important than the price of bloody beer.

There's NOTHING more important than the price of Efes in Calis.

[kayakebab]

In Calis sadly you're right!  Sad scenes from Istanbul again tonight    We will be concerned about the price of Ayran the way things are going.

Maybe to you but to 99% of holidaymakers they wouldnt give Turkish politics a second thought.

[kayakebab]

Yeah, you're probably right. People with that mentality probably don't even watch the news let alone understand it.

kayakebab I think that's a rude thing to say, us holiday makers who love to visit twice a year, do care about the political situation BUT for 3-4 weeks a year its our rest and relaxation time away from the problems in the UK (of which there are many) so cut us some slack please

My comments aren't aimed at all  tourists, just the ones who only gauge the area by cost of beer.
The area has so much more to offer than beer.

My point is that that the people here are seeing their country and their people losing its way and being destroyed bit by bit.
I would love to see more posts from people interested In what's happening, in the real world, not just the few weeks they're here.

If that's rude then so be it.
