Amazing.No sign of the devestation of the fire a few days ago. Puts us Brits to shame. Hope everything is up and running for the season.

Red Tape unfortunatly!!. Back home we would have to notify the council. Submit plans and a design and access statement, wait for their validation,, 4 weeks, then wait for their approval,, 8 weeks. In the meantime we will need a Risk Assement report and a Method statement. Also need a licensce to work at height, work in an area where the general public may have access. Will also need a certified company to install scaffold and instal safety barriers to ensure the general public are safe. Also will need to get a licesnce to remove the fire damaged materials and dispose of them in a land fill site, if they cannot be recycled. There may also be asbestos materials in the existing building so will need to get specialist firm to visit and carry out a survey, which will identify which type and how to proceed with removal if any is found. Need i say more!! Great Britian know wonder we are bust. I love Turkey.

Well said Keith xx

Totally agree with you Keith. The motorway to Glasgow was being upgraded for years, and the whole of Icmelers roads can be lifted and relaid in a couple of months. The whole town works together to make Paradise just perfect for all its visitors. 10 1/2 weeks to go. YAY!!!!
