where has everyone gone

[jackstee]

Well Kevin I was thinking about moving from the center of Fethiye to Calis as it was 2 quiet in Fethiye during the winter.
Maybe I should rethink now.

On a lighter note we, I have decided to move back for good to Fethiye in July. Spent enough time working full time and it's not all it's cracked up to be.

Nobody, on their deathbed, said "I wish I'd spent more time at work"

I am guilty of using Facebook. Mostly liking other peoples posts.. I don't have much to say on my own page. However I read CBF at least twice a day.   Like a lot of us regular members, we have been there, done that and got the T.shirt since living there and I don't have much to contribute too the forum these days...Most of the members we have met and that is quite a few now are wonderful, funny and kind people and I am happy and count myself lucky to have found them and this forum... It always goes a bit quiet this time of year..Maybe they are out scrapping for TVs in Tesco?

CBF has done well in it's 10 years and it's true to say that FB seems to be the social media choice for some, which is a shame considering some of the wonderful posts and advice provided by the forum members, all of whom have done a great job.  I will probably be shot down in flames (nothing new!) but some members take great pleasure and delight in mocking people with whom they don't agree.  Like many ex-pats (SOME of them) form little groups and if you don't belong to that little group then "yer arse is oot the windae".  Situations like this minimise membership.
Merry Christmas & Happy New Year to everyone.

Well somebody is doing something right

Has the addition of a "like" button obviated the need to actually post in many cases.
I only noticed the like button recently and have used it on a number of occasions.

Is the "like" button newish ?

Little groups of people can be formed for reasons of friendship, similar interests, shared troubles and travails and location.
I am sure all of them would welcome you if you feel you need to belong.

Only if you agreed with the original post

No criticism intended but possibly a classic example.
