It also depends where they bought. You can still get a flat in a place like B�y�k�ekmece for 20 000 pounds.

^but would you want to live in a place called big drawer? What a stupid name for a place. It's almost as silly as kulaksiz

*sorry where do you live......... Speak up*

I could not care less whether places are called:

Heaven
Little Drawer/Big Drawer
Thieves' River
Gypsy Corner
Shepherds' Fountain
Eunuch
Mrs Ayşe
Mr. Necati Apartment etc. etc.

TEFLers cannot be choosers-remember that old saying.

Have you been out to visit Pendik yet?

No, I am too lazy and apathetic.

Probably just as well. It would involve going through Suadiye... and you know how dodgy the characters are there Wink

I'd probably get done for vagrancy in Suadiye.

Actually Thrifty, I reckon if you inflated prices then Suadiye on a weekend evening would be a good place to park your chip van.

The local residents' association would drive me out. I would lower property prices and might attract the wrong sort. All those fancy caffs that sell brovnie and apple pay would lose out.
