There is a right ole slanging match going on on fb re “the as the crisis is now over” ( of course it is) will the price of beer, wine boat trips etc come back down ( of course they will) and it kind of got out of hand as someone made a remark about the ladies posting saying they were all “Turkeyboy fans” so someone said he was leaving the group as its now become like the Calis Beach Forum where there are people waiting to jump on you and have a go if you ask a question lol! Oh and someone else posted and said the tl rate has a reprieve because of Bayram, would Bayram have an effect on it in any way at all just curious  ;D

Been watching that myself, getting very heated now, but I'm keeping out of that one!    ;D

Over? According to some sources it hasn't really started, end of August/beginning of September is when things might really go pear shaped.

Do you think I should make a couple of comments on there to settle things down a bit ?  8)

Thank god for the Fethiye expat economists.

The crisis is indeed over!

We haven’t seen rates this low in such a long time.

5 days ago to be precise.

Yes, getting very heated and some incredible comments. Some people say they will strike any restaurants/bars off their lists if they put prices up. Many rents are paid in euros or dollars......certainly along the 'new' Jordon in Fethiye and in Paspatur, so would should they do? Give them Efes for free? And all the time, these people are getting a great exchange rate and/or high interest rates on their Turkish lira bank accounts. Though nobody has said about the real value of that money now. Only a very few saying about Turkish people having to cope with all this, all very sad. I might go on there and ask how much an Efes is now.........
