Now for the good part!!!!

Hi everyone,

Just to let you know that we have now completed and will be going over to Fuente De Peidra on 1st March, for one week, to try and arrange a kitchen and some furniture.  Thanks to this site we have made lots of "telephone friends"  If anybody is over for the first week of March please let me know and we can meet up for a drink or two!!!  We are actually staying in F d P in an apartment but will not arrive until very late Saturday night.  I am quite prepared to give you my mobile number by private message.

Cheryl and Ron

Hi Cheryl and Ron,

Congratulations, we are due to sign in the next couple of weeks, just waiting for a date, can you please tell us the procecure.,.what number are you on the site plan we are b52, unfortunately we ended up with a town house, but after waiting so long we are just glad to get the house. what a nightmare it has been, did you get charged for not taking up the mortgage, there seems to be so many extras to pay for. my mail address is jennymulford@yahoo.com  if we are there when you are it would be nice to meet up if not i am sure we shall all get together soon,

regards Jenny

 

 

Enhorabuena a todos.

Did I mention that we have a little Eroski now? Means you don't have to worry about milk and veg and stuff on arrival. Hell, they even sell teabags.

The bad news is that the bar opposite Boli (was Jayne's) now has regular karaoke and acts from down the coast. And what was the english restaurant is now a caff with plastic tablecloths.

When you come visiting, bring some english rain with you please, as the drought is now at its worst in 60 years. Those of you that haven't already done it might like to think about installing a water tank for when the supply goes off. Not a very nice holiday if you can't have a shower.

¡Que disfrutéis!

            Instead of being all doom and gloom why not give the village were you live some credit for the effort that has been made over the last few years to make it a better place, please do the right thing and move some ware that you like and stop moaning

Blimey! School holidays again? Doesn't it come round quickly?

Y para ellos que hayan hecho el esfuerzo de aprender el idioma...   ¡Que todo vaya bien para todos!

Sorry, although this doesn't have much to do with the "pink houses" I have to agree with Wibbleypants.  The restaurant was a great place and excellent value when it was "On the Square"; beautiful food and a great ambiance.  From the couple of visits I've made there since it's just a "caff".
And, having arrived in F de P seven years ago (and since left altogether) I find I am hard pushed to think of any "improvements" since then - it's been downhill ever since.
