I started to feel like that in Turkey
but then I decided I didn't want any of the fucking shit they were trying to sell me.

Nah, I got a couple of nice bits of pottery and jewellery
I do agree that a great percentage of the stuff was utter tat, though.

we went (for some reason that now escapes me) into the market full of genuine designer fakes
it was hellish. I got out of there sharpish and went for a nice stroll around the harbour instead.

That sounds truly horrendous
I preferred the spice market, personally. At least you know they can't fake herbs (well, I suppose they can, but what'd be the point?)
Was it Istanbul you went to?

No, Constantinople

I like this very much
but no, I was staying in Bitez, the market was in Bodrum

Ahhh, my colleague went there
I have heard about the fake designer market. Bodrum is meant to be very pretty, though.

it is nice
the harbour bit is particularly good, and there's the Mausoleum of Halicarnassus, which was one of the Seven Wonders. That was pretty good.
