Most of us have good friends that live in Uzumlu - I was talking vaguely statistically and generally. There is quite obviously more scandal and nastiness in Uzumlu per head of expat population than in any other area locally. It doesn't mean everyone is like that there, how could it?

But still, if I had a house in Uzumlu I'd probably sleep on a park bench in Fethiye  ;)

If I had a house in Uzumlu, I would be contacting Cenk immediately and in the meantime would stay in and lock my doors.     ;)
The people living there are the moment are not doing the best job to make the place the one that house buyers are wanting to settle down in.  :(

Going by the number of properties for sale in that dear green place, I think there are plenty who would have beat you to it.

Elduzumlu, a soap of British expats. Nobody would believe any of the storylines...
Couldn't have put it better myself.
i am happy to leave it here and although as you say my efforts to undermine this issue were noble, i was only trying to get 2 sides to this issue. But in the above comment by yourself  there is no more to say on this issue. I rest my case your honour.

well I would never go there again, a beautiful place with nice people, but the old saying, one bad apple, nah, no way, there's none so blind as them that see.

Is this one of your quaint old Liverpudlian saying?

My mother in law (in her 80's) regularly says "a blind man on a galloping horse wouldn't see that"

But you do have to ask why on earth would a blind man be on a galloping horse - sounds irresponsible to me !!

The correct version is  : There's none so blind as those who will not see.  ;)
