So as Turkey seems to have similar visa rules, ie 90 days in 180, could we cruise 3 months in the eu parts of the med, then 3 months in turkey, then back to eu waters for 3 months and so on?
90 in 180 limit from 1st January.

In the French Alps it happens a lot; Brits with businesses employing youngsters in France on contracts in the UK, riding roughshod over French employment law, and also getting away with exploiting the kids who work for them, because they are so keen to do a ski season. Then when the French State cracks down on them, it's all over the Daily Mail about plucky Brits being discriminated against by the evil Frogs.
A young family friend who had worked for me, and his sister went and did a season in Meribel working in a British owned bar. At the end of the season the owner tried to withhold even the pittance they were owed after all of his deductions. I called him up and suggested he paid up before I called the Inspection du Travail; he got his wallet out quicker than you can say knife.
In her year off my younger daughter was offered a job in a high-end chalet in Chamonix. It was one of about five owned by some British people. I was quite concerned when it became clear to me that the whole shebang was operated in a way which totally ignored French employment law. Amongst other things, they were proposing to employ my daughter, a French national with a french social security number, as a UK employee on a British contract, to work in France. The pay they were offering was appalling (nowhere near the French minimum wage), and where they would have stood if there was an accident at work, I shudder to think. Fortunately, she decided instead to go and spend the year in New Zealand, so I didn't have to throw my teddies out of the pram.

As far as the original question 90/180, I was hoping for 365.
No doubt there will be visas to accommodate this or am I p ing in the wind ?

Out means out, completely out. No single market. Time to walk away. The silent majority. No extended travel visas.

No, as far as I can see 90/180 is your lot. If you want longer, you have to move into a Schengen country.

This has been bugging me, as I was sure I recognised that portrait. By chance earlier today I was searchig for an old book of Hilaire Belloc's, and suddenly it clicked. It is NOT Mosely in Ohlins avatar, its Belloc
Which leads me to think he is, indeed, on a monumental wind up

Careful, I said something similar and the dearies called up from the early 90s to tell me it wasn't "netiquette", which was sweet, even if they did delete the post to save their blushes.

Well I guess that figures too.
Belloc was renowned as a wind-up merchant, often on the wrong side of the argument.
Amongst other things he thought evolution by natural selection was hokum.

That's fundamentalist Catholicism for you.
