Life News

I arrived in Spain on 22nd November to find that my house had no electricity! For any of you who know the area, this is not an uncommon experience so I rang the Estate Agent to get someone to reconnect it and instead was supplied with a generator and told they were unable to connect the house as the Electricity company were working in the area. Hmm.... Well ten days later and I was still with only a generator so I decided to move in with a friend for a while until it was resolved. Of course, Spain being Spain, it wasnt and still isnt so life continues with the house. On the 30th December I decided that I was getting knowhere fast and so I returned to familiar surroundings (London) for New Year, which is where I am now.

When you speak to people in Spain, everyone says you have a good days and bad days and this last time I certainly had plenty of them. I suppose it comes from looking at things from a Northern European perspective that somehow you expect things to be done reasonably quickly. Well for anyone reading this about to take the plunge, remember nothing is done quickly so make sure you take a course in patience and motivation. Having said all that I still love the Costa de la Luz and all it has to offer. It is a beautiful part of Spain.


Work News

The website continues to grow and evolve. I have some plans for the future for it but at the moment it is where I had hoped it would be six months into the project. I am planning some good deals behind the scenes which will benefit the people reading the site and also myself so I am excited about them. Other than that not much to report for the moment.


Other News

None to report for the moment.

That's all for the time being and catch up with you all soon.
