The down side for the locals is that they only see the lira going down in value - with no UK source of income, it's hard times for them...

Bit strange, bank and ex exchange rates giving 4.59tl to the pound. Exchange shop in Girne giving 4.4tl. I know the exchanges give a slightly lower rate but not that much. Any thoughts
