Daily Doings of a New President

There was so much interest in my campaign to change my Community,which eventually resulted in my election as President, that I'm carrying on with Presidential ramblings here !!

Third Week

Well.........................I don't get this !!!

What's happened to all the back-lash, the complaints, the back-stabbing that I was expecting !!!??????? Cos there is absolutely none !! I don't believe it !!! Maybe it's too early !!!

In fact, the reverse is the case, I'm openly congratulated, smiled, waved and tooted at by people that I'm not actually sure who they are (!!)  and Spanish ladies are hugging me in the street   I've had several non-resident Brit owners arrive this week, they've all come to introduce themselves and one actually called me a heroine !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The only difference I've noticed is that the "Vice-President" who was never elected is not driving round the complex every day with his nose in the air as though he owns the place!!!!..............in fact, I've not seen hide nor hair of him !

Time will tell !!

I'm now updating the community website regularly with any news and encouraging people to ask questions, raise issues etc........................so that everyone knows what's going on and why .............they have the right !!!!

I've had Jose write a letter to the Town Hall complaining that the street lights on the perimeter road of our complex haven't been working for three months !!............which he not only wrote, but delivered personally and got a received stamp and a signature on it !!! I so like his style !!!

It gave me great pleasure to be able to sign a cheque for Jose personally to repay him all the money that he paid out of his own pocket during the handover period when things needed to be paid and he couldn't access community funds due to the deliberate delaying tactics of the previous administration !!!

I'm hot on the trail of two things that could be both very important and useful! Take note all !!..............one is an updated version of the Municipal Ordinances of Coexistence (Environmental) which is all about noise, nuisance, dogs, litter and every other annoyance known to man including throwing fag-ends !!.................the other is something new, a new law I believe, about building works and planning permission and all I've heard is that you need a Licence for anything and everything in the way of building, extensions or alterations !!  That should be fun !!!! 

So far so good...........................I am a bit concerned that this is too good to be true !!!!!

Relax Audrey!!!
You're over the worst of it, things will only get better now. You have been so totally focussed on the job in hand that you now feel you have possibly missed something. You haven't. Enjoy the attention you deserve it. You ARE a heroine to have tackled the problem 'head on' as you did but, like all heroes, you cannot appreciate the enormity of just what you did.
It took guts and a lot of determination.
Once the finances are built up, your community will become the relaxing and happy one that you all hoped it would be when you purchased.
Regarding the ex-officianados,they are now old news and, in time, will probably move on. Who Cares?

Audrey, you have achieved the impossible and brought the community to life again.
It's good to read that everyone is working together to maintain a community spirit.
You are doing everything you can to keep people informed and allowing others to become involved by leaving feedback on your website.
You've dotted the i's and crossed the t's, except the gratitued, you deserve it.

Good reading Audrey
Nice to see someone having some success in the current world collapse.

Keep up the good work and i'm sure we will all enjoy the read as to whats going on.

Please PM me copies of any of these new docs/laws that you get your hands on, we all need to look after each other when the going gets tough.
