Right. Now. Where were we?
Oh Yeah, Sunday.
Well, the day started with a little self catering. Following a recipe given to me by JT, Icmeler's very own Evel Kneivel (he buzzes round hither and thither all day on his scooter at breakneck speeds - I'm quite looking forward to seeing him attempt to jump over 15 dolmuses!!), I made us an ommelette with Turkish Pastrami and green chillies. Wow. Tasty and a good start to a lazy day by the pool.
A quick note on poolside reading- I'm beginning to get the impression that as well as your tenner at the airport, it's seems to be now enshrined in Turkish law that every woman entering the country MUST have a copy of Fifty Shades Of Grey!! Now, I haven't read it, but it must be a very funny read, cos all the women reading it round our pool are smiling!!
After much swimming and sunbathing, we've been invited to JT's house for a barbecue. So, armed with several cold Efes, we arrive at Chateau Toohey to find the the man himself slaving over a hot stove in the kitchen. After some impressive and hilarious pyrotechnics involving JT, the barbie and a bottle of lighter fluid, where our beloved travel agent nearly went up in a cloud of smoke, I was deployed on meatball duty at the grill. John and Sharon made us all really welcome and we all got on with the serious business of having a brilliant afternoon/evening. We met some lovely people, and had a great time. At one point, Dr Murat joined us to help serve the amazing food JT had made for us. He looked so impressive in his Drs uniform, including stethoscope, with a ciggie hanging out of his mouth. Only in Turkey! As I say tho, a great time was had by all the family, and we want to say a big massive thanks to John and Sharon for their hospitality, food and great laughs. Cheers, folks. Back to base for some games of pool with the 11yr old Hustler, then off to bed with big smiles on our faces.
