I bet in those times there were no such things as Urb.and their silly rules and regulations. I wonder who invented them and if there will ever be a more updated rule book bringing it up to date with the crises and 2013. Back in the good old days, people rallied around those less fortunate and made homes for those who could not afford to pay their bills. I CAN remeber spain 45 years ago and it was quaint and beautiful and now I have moved back here as an adult and after 11 years I still love it and count myself to be very lucky to have some spanish friends who have made me feel very comfortable in settling into Spanish life, I just wish the language was easier as my memory is not what it used to be and I am only 58. HAPPY 2013 TO ALL.

I remember, so well, Spain in the mid sixties.
If you were an English young lady during that time in Spain, you were treated as if you were the bell of the Ball.
I first went with my parents for the winter of 1964, when I came across families living in beach caves. Then in 1966 I returned for five months on an exchange visit.
Every day I would take the bus to Alicante then on to the beach at San Juan, where I met Germans, French and one American, but I still learnt the language!
Now my brother lives out there and I would so love to join him but my dear old ma is still alive.
