Thank you so much for that comment! It's very different from what everyone around here says. They seem to think that it doesn't matter and it makes me sad that they don't understand (or even try to) what it is like to go through with the turkish army.
Still, I feel for your phone bills, it's not fun to receive those at all



No its not but I've always used an international calling card, luckily we are together I moved over there pretty quickly, 4 weeks after meeting him!!!!! Just stay strong for him keep on calling and doing what you are doing...........
I spoke to lots of the men and they told me that phonecalls were the most precious thing to them, just to hear someones voice at the other end, reassuring them and telling them that they are loved and that the army is not forever. Just try to use a calling card and reduce your bills, just think of what you could be saving it for when he finishes! You could buy a car!!!!! Or something else which you can enjoy together, maybe a holiday! Take care and good luck!!!



Thanks for your comments. It's absolutely true. We just finished taking over the webcam and it's very precious to us Do you live in Turkey now then? I did but went to my home country again because of the army factor.

Oh how I wish we still did live in Turkey! We have been here since nov 2005 - england I mean by that! We don't like it here etc, but we have bought some land in Turkey now due to working hard etc. We have to try very hard at times to convince ourselves that we did the right thing coming here.
It's difficult though especially as its now winter and horrible, january's such a miserable month everyone is miserable. We don't like our jobs etc here, but we know that if we perservere then in a few years we can move back and have a nicer life!



That is what we want to do as well. I'd like to live in Turkey but I need assurance that we won't fall into poverty.

hi,

i dont know if you've heard of skype but you can make cheap international calls through them if you have a skype (or internet) phone. if you are ringing someone who also has skype and a skype phone (i.e. calling over the net) the call is free aswell!!

i think from england its about 7p per minute to turkish landline and about 12p per minute to turksih mobile!
