LOL BB. Stop to entry for risk free trade.

went to istanbul 30 odd years ago, was a bit of a dump then with not a sign post to be found i had to use the sun for some sort of direction whilst dodging the manic drivers on the road. Is it still the same??

Sounds like you were in edgware road !....not istanbul !...and not long ago either...

out of the sixty odd shares on my watch list tesco is the highest riser......in other words it looks like a crap day for trading. so out to do somemore fencing and earn a shekel or two.,.

manic drivers have no chance here - traffic tends to be at a standstill

Istanbul is on our list for a late Spring break. How many days to do all the sights, please Cynic?

so much to see that i'ld have thought at least 2 days depending in how easily you hit site-overload and whether you just want to view and tick off the list or see properly.
important to work out where to stay - budget level?
lots of god restaurants too - the most important bit

Thanks for that C. We were thinking of a week max.

solely in istanbul?

Yes. Sorry for the late reply but I've been out for the afternoon.

i'll write further by e- but meanwhile you eed to work out whereabouts you want to stay and at what sort of price
