As for the teacher with waxwork skills: Yea!, you know, teachers are often have to be all rounders to run their classes :G

I seem to remember something on tvabout them many years ago

and in thepast few weeks came across them again whilst flicking

through web tv channels on the Internet on 'globetreker' or 'national geographic'

so it came to mind as something 'Turkish' besides 'Turkish delight'to add

to my comments and of course checked youtube for a video to add.....:-)........musket.

Surely, you'll love it with home made 'ayran' or buttermilk

Wish I can treat you there this summer, having visited our common heritage in Ephesus just a few kilometers awayfrom the place : )

Some nice additions, the lens seems adequate for interior shots

I like the scene of the home weavers.......................musket.
