Hassle always gets me for the first few days.......
I didnt cut out all the hassle last year but cut down on some of it - as us girls do (well I do anyway), we have our nails done and our hair cut etc before we go so every time I got accosted by the hairdressers/nail girls, I just held out my hands and asked (very politely as I carried on walking) "do I look as if I need a manicure? I'm a nail technician" ..... "i'm a hairdresser" or even to one guy who tried to sell me a bag "I work at Debenhams and get 75% discount so I have all the bags I require" .. after a few days, i think they gave up!
Havent quite mastered the Bars and Resteraunts hassle yet apart from the "we've eaten" or "we're meeting friends" so I'm watching this thread for some tips .......
Roll on June 21st!

Went to icmeler twice last year and yes they do hassle you but it got to the point where i was thrown over someones sholder, firemans lifted into the resturant and as i held onto the foundation post of the resturant 
my friend realized i was gone and only then came back for me!!
Cant wait until may for my next experience i love thinking of things to say to them you have to try and be smarter than them its all part of the fun i dont mind it and any handsome men can throw me over their sholder any time!
Mind you people who try and sell you boat trips along the beach front anoy me because they are so unpolite.

The thing that annoys me the most is having to climb into the mini bus to bring me back to Dalaman and my flight home.
Hassle,etc,at this moment,I wish I was experiencing it today instead of being here in England.

I was told a long time ago that if you don't get with the latest technology you will be left behind.
I am off to the pc fair tonight to buy the makings for a space age pc for the lads room that they will have no problems with as in java and the likes.
Java has to be downloaded onto your pc from sun systems
http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/index.jsp
This is needed for lots of stuff that is used on pc's
Adobe flash player would help everyone with their pc also so get it here.
http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/
I click on the site every morning at 6 am and the camera is there like a flash so maybe the more people that are looking in slows the server down and also the speed of your internet connection does matter a lot.
There has been a few times that I have clicked on and I have waited for ages for the camera to actually start working so you people with slower connections will also wait longer than that.
Anyway try the above stuff and if that doesn't work then there is nothing more I can do as there are lots of people who are watching fine.

All I get when I click on it is a blank square with a red cross in the top left hand corner.
28 Mar 2007 17:41
I get the red cross in the middle of the screen, as well, my computer is brand new with all the mod cons and I still cant get Java it is not slow either, never mind i will be there in 7 weeks so i will see the real thing, then I will wave to all you lucky people who can see with Java
28 Mar 2007 18:46
I get the cross in the corner of the screen as well it is really annoying

Ok, the problem will be fixed by moving the cam image to a different page so that the bandwidth will not be shared with those who are on the main site to simply visit icmeleronline. moving the cam image should do it since the problem is simple: many people on the home page at the same time even though they may not be watching the cam.
Please check back soon. Thank you.

What annoys me is the local police who will shut down a bar for a few days and fine the owners for playing there music a bit to loud at five past twelve at night.
28 Mar 2007 19:50
Can someone post a link to the live cam
Thanks
Thanks
28 Mar 2007 20:07
Works for me but has it stopped rotating, liked that:D 
Thank you for it.
Thank you for it.

Getting ready to come home ! Now that's annoying

Being hassled is a bit of a pain in the butt but if you say no politely they leave you alone.
The most annoying thing is the end of your holiday when you arrive at Dalaman airport to check in and you see the new arrivals on the other side just starting their holidays.
Thats the most annoying thing EVER and it makes you want to cry
