Re: A place in the sun

I made it my mission to track down the flower pots tapas cafe. By a process of elimination I think it is La Paraita d'Pintxos, as it happens a favourite of mine as well. No sign of flower pots on...

I've connected a laptop to the TV with...

Re: Air Con

This is a big thanks from me to all the contributers to this thread and also the Ayamonte club posters that I have been following for years now. I'm pretty much a lurker.

Re: I hate to admit it but I need CBBC!

Very encouraging. Slingbox is my first choice as I hunt for a solution for TV in Ayamonte this summer. Pleased to hear it all works.

Hi,
With all the current upheaval regarding Satellite TV, I am considering re-installing a phone line into the apartment which was removed a few years ago for cost reasons.

Re: Goodbye Sky TV

Warning for folk in the Ayamonte area and beyond.

It looks likely that BBC channels will move to the new Satellite Astra 2E and the new spot beam tomorrow.

The move ".... will take place in...

Re: Best SIM card

In the UK. I'm not sure if you can get it in the Carphonewarehouse equivalent in Spain. I would doubt it. I think there is a Phonewarehouse next to Mercadona so you could ask there.

Re: Best SIM card

I can only confirm that Isla Canela and Ayamonte works well. The Toggle Mobile option from Carphonewarehouse uses the Vodafone Network.

This is a followup to the togglemobile suggestion from Olivia.

Yes, that's possible. No toll to pay. (assuming you are coming from the Spanish end of course) :D

That's an interesting find... Seems to be run by Lycamobile and also sold by Carphonewarehouse. What is attractive that it appears to provide a Spanish number whilst in Spain. Definitely one to...

Re: Best SIM card

Researching this whole subject deeply, I am totally convinced there is no one best SIM deal for all uses. I never said I get a good deal on Internet with my Lebara. In my opinion, it is only good...

Re: Best SIM card

Blimey, they want 39 euros just for the SIM card before any charges. Doesn't look a cheap option. Probably only useful for people that really spend a lot of time travelling to many countries.

Re: Best SIM card

I believe the SIM that I use is NOT the best for you but I'll mention anyway that I use Lebara for cheaper calls back to the UK. I think it's not so cheap for calls within Spain compared to other...

Also, be very careful. Even a 2.5m dish will probably not be sufficient in the Ayamonte area based on the experience of Channel 5 and Astra2F. The very best advice right now is to wait and see what...
