You are right about Turkish Mushtaq. We came to realise that the Turkish equivalent to the spanish Manyana is "Ah we wait for the man from Izmir". Every time we asked when the patio door (which was mis-aligned) was going to be fixed, this was the standard reply - and to other things too. It got quite funny cos when we asked when a job was to be done we ended up answering ourselves saying "yeah yeah we know, we are waiting for the man from Izmir", this was usually greeted with vigorous head nodding and a shrug of the shoulders.
