Thanks 

Gina, Been to Istanbul a few times, beautiful place.  The food!!!  Stayed in both the European and Islamic parts of the city.

Lots of feral cats on the streets but they are all in excellent condition.  Same as in Ankara.

You will love it!

Back from "The Smoke" now . Cracking long weekend. Now Istanbul - The new airport is miles from the city.  Top sights foe us were: Basilica Cisterns, Galata Tower, Topkapi Palace, The Hagia Sophia and the best of all The Grand Bazaar.. Watching ships in the Bosphorus was good too over breakfast in our hotel - there's so much to see. Enjoy it.

Hi Steve, Brian

Thanks for the info. We are staying near the Galata tower, but not so far up the hill hopefully. All those places are on our list. Is it worth going over the Bosphorous to the other side and if so, where to visit there?

Gx

On a personal note -it's well worth the ferry ride - it was cheap when we went across to watch it dodge the shipping but - no there's nowt worth seeing in my view.  There must be 20 miles of tower blocks on the Asian side and I can't remember seeing anything else.

Hi all just back from seeing oncologist PSA from last week's bloods is 14.2 almost doubled in 4 weeks.

Oncologist arraying CT and Bone scans urgently.

Wow Ulls - That's not good - let's hope for good results - fingers crossed for you.

Thanks Brian, just have to wait and get scan tests, so even more anxious than I was.
