having just booked a 2wk stay in Icmeler I was surprised to find out that a visitor does no longer need to put a £10 note in thier passport to obtain a entry visa. plus no change given if one happened to only had £20,s which caught many a couple out if they thought a 20 would pay for both visa,s. also according to other sources obtain turkish lira by changing sterling over there for a better rate. anyway first job change money then a visit to a turkish barbers  followed by a turkish bath.  footnote it will be almost 60 yrs to a day since i visited Istanbul as a 16 yr old deckboy, my first trip to sea

Yes, but inflation is running at about 70%. If you pay £2 for a beer on Monday it will be a fiver by Friday

Ah yes I forgot about Turkish inflation! 

I've been conditioned by the British mainstream media that the UK has the worst inflation and cost of living crisis......  In the world!

Derived from the French 'vacance', shares its origins in vavancy/vacant as in unoccupied.

English 'holiday' originates in Holy Day, namely Good Friday, Easter Sunday and Christmas Day.

So whilst we holiday out of tradition, most other places vacate.
