No Hassle

[desmartinson]

You must have been fascinated ?

We just ordered a takeaway from Calis Beach Indian, Ahmed just delivered it to our door, after chomping through the delicious pappadums with four different chutney and chicken pakhora, we are now having a rest before we enjoy the main course, and as for hassle? The only hassle came from me to them.

Have you got their number George? would love a nice indian  takeaway ,as you know I also liked a nice Chinese too, but will never use the shanghai blues again as my topic on here explains.

Best Chinese I ever had over there was at the Dragonara (or Dragonaro) in Hisaronu. Superb.

Hi Des, sent you a PM

What happens to the guys who are paid to get you in. Do they have a role now.?
The hassle just turned into one of the background noises of an evening walk for us, but it took a few years for this to happen.
There is still a certain shop outside the fish market  where we cross the road to avoid the "getter inner", but otherwise as long as your polite, it's not a problem.

You must mean "excuse me, are you from England? Can I ask you one question?" We shudder when we see people being "suckered in" and drinking Apple tea there.

[Marggie]

My answer to him is "you just have" and I keep on walking.

Good one Marggie I must remember that one this shop is indeed a pain in the neck we also normally try and remember to cross the road before we get there!

They must have been using this "routine" for at least 15 years! You'd think they would have changed it a little in all this time....

[Menthol]

On my first visit to Turkey, I fell for that routine and bought loads of fruit tea that no one has ever drunk ....... 

Yep - sucker.

Yep you've got it , that's the one
His variation is " Can I ask you a question-why are there so few tourists here this year"
He asked last Sept, then in December and then in April.
There is an obvious answer , but I wouldn't want to offend him
After all, he is only doing his job.
