We did see it here in Kalkan, very cloudy though in some ways that helped us to get a view.  Spoke to a couple of Turkish friends who hadn't got a clue what we were talking about. !!!!

Lovely views of it in the North West.
Better to keep your mouth shut and appear stupid than to open it and remove all doubt :)

I was talking about this to someone in Homebase this morning who looked at me like I was an Alien..(obviously from a planet you wouldn't be able to see because of the cloud  :P)

Tonight we are promised a "Super Moon".....(rude images spring to mind >:D)I might just pop my head out of the window for a look but expect to be underwhelmed ::)

I saw the one in Turkey and was on Patara Beach and there wasn't a cloud in sight. Obviously took the right decision not to watch in Kalkan. Was in Cornwall in 1999 but that was just cloudy so probably a similar experience to most people today.

Personally, I didn't bother.

I know the sun only comes out in Kalkan...
