jail would be a cheap accommodation alternative.
cancelled our flight
the Rakı hangover...
Bosphorus water temperature is still low enough for a quick remedy
...Jail, the cancelled flight phenomenon, bad liquor, hangover, a quick dip to frosty waters... Aah, one can sense the regular Euro RFF meeting is afoot.
Literally on the doorstep now, see you soon peeps.

At least it will be hot.
Also, updated the first post in the thread with travel information and film shops from posts by semrich and smbilgin in this thread.

Last weekend it was hot and sun was shining, yesterday there was heavy rain and it was very cold and windy. Istanbul's weather is unpredictable especially in this season. Be ready for every whether condition.

BTW, whether forecasting is not reliable in this season. Also whether can change during the day time.

I've created a flickr group as per usual for us to share our snaps once we come back.

One of the first saying I was introduced to in Istanbul was this:
The weather (in Istanbul) is like women:
moody.
He might have said "unpredictible". In any case, the guy telling me this while we were sitting on a bench halfway up the Bosphorus got smacked pretty good by his lady friend.
Sun is shining into my living room... There's hope.

Friday, I will want to drink beer until late. Let me know if you want to meet up.
I'm obviously in. I have a respectable alcoholic reputation to uphold.

Good work all! If all goes well I'll be around on friday afternoon/evening too.
For my monday and tuesday nights (flying back on wednesday), the fabulous shared penthouse will no longer be available so I was planning to find a hostel (or similar) in an area which seems most interesting over the weekend. Do our local RFF colleagues think Istanbul still has few enough tourists for a couple of nights at short notice to be possible, or will everywhere already be booked?!
Now, what to bring with me . . .

Martin, it's not high season yet, so most of the hotels, hostels are still available without any reservation. You just come, the rest is to be handled here.
