Re: Mallorca - Buy a beer, use the pool. Will we get thrown out?

This will only work in a hotel that is Bed and Breakfast or Half Board.

Re: When it's time to go home.

Hopefully not. People have to live their lives as best they can and can only make their decisions based on what they know at that given point in time.

Re: When it's time to go home.

I'm glad that by concentrating on the grieving and funeral it stopped you concentrating on the other negative aspects and that they have ended up together due to your efforts.

Re: PDT v TIO

Bit of a shame this has happened. It's going to make the Spain forum so quiet.

Re: When it's time to go home.

Re: When it's time to go home.

Re: the weather in Spain /Mallorca differences ?

Re: A huge thanks to our Mitz.

Re: Winter Fuel Payment

And during those 45 years you would have had the full support of the British NI system at the time and quite rightly so.

It's not a savings scheme it's a benefits system to provide for those who...

Re: Winter Fuel Payment

The biggest chunk of the benefits budget goes on pensioners, always has done and probably always will - and yet they still want more i.e. WFA when abroad in a Southern European climate. All...

All the usual claptrap that people come out with to support what are basically a pet that can kill. Let's hope the OP doesn't let her kids poke them in the eye in a playful manner once too often.
