Morning Rockette Sounds like bliss!!!! Bet you won't want to come home. It's warm here though!!!!! Mind you it won't last will it. LOL

You want to bring back some of that lovely lemon skin freshener back with you as it's cheap there. I've not seen it over here but it will be great for when you're running back home. It keeps the bugs away, smells lovely and is coooling. Dunno what it's called. It's the stuff they dab on you when you go on the trips. They will have it in the local shops there

Did you go into Marmaris town centre? The marina is lovely, or it was when I was last there. Mind you it was a long time ago. Sigh

I think I went in 1987 and had a brill time. I absolutely loved it. We were in an apartment and the owners were amazing and their food was out of this world. I think the best food I ever ate in my life was there. I went on a tour of the agricultural bit, cotton fields and camels! Very interesting. I could do with being there now, ligged out on a sunbed to rest my flamin ankle!

Nah I don;t think so Rockette. I think it's my calves this time. Ankles, knees, now ruddy calves. I'm certainly feeling my age at the moment.

Ha ha, there's always one int there. I got overtaken on a hill by a really old chap. He was running without hesitation and I was slogging up it with the dog, puffing and panting like a 90 year old.
