Re: COSTA ESURI - AYAMONTE
How interesting is the idea of collecting the rainwater!
I had thought the garage was to the right of the plant doorway (seeing the dirt track off the road), below pool level.(I'm guessing)The space above the pool would make a fantastic "pelota" court once glazed!
Thanks for taking the time to explain things!

Re: COSTA ESURI - AYAMONTE
No definitely Spanish! My Architect/Aquitecto he's both and me Civil Engineer both wanted a proper job and we looked at some awful examples of clay blockwork before (and this is the lucky bit) our selected builder who was expensive for his blockwork said he would not change his blockwork subbie since everyone else was rubbish. How right he was.
It just seems to the engineer in me that if you design a dam great concrete frame structure against earthquake risk and then infill with blockwork that is not jointed and and has hungry joints even if you coat it with a nice layer of render, first good shake it is going to crack. If the shake is big enough a bit might fall off inside or out and if a block fell on your head from say 2m you would be badly!
However the brickies were not perfect just Spanish with skill and typically even given drawings at 1/20 they still set the door openings out 50mm from where they should have been and were most surprised to be asked to correct the error. But they did with a big hammer and a stilsaw.

Already told Carol&John that yes it is but not very deep since I was the smallest marine on the cadre and had to grow 1" to pass the medical so it is set at 1.4m. Overall the pool will be 14m x 5m so it is a lap pool really which suits the family since we all enjoy swimming lengths

Knowing as we do that Fadesa staff do read this site from time to time, may I take this opportunity to congratulate one of their best, Paula Ferreira, on the birth of her baby last weekend. My Abogado tells me she worked like a trojan right up until the end on completions and so on.
Paula,
Many congratulations to you and your family.
Jonathan

There is now a good coverage of local football fixtures ( page 39)
16-17 Feb. Ayamonte FC V Seville C
Recreativo V Deportivo
Recr. Huelva B V Chiclana Ind. ?
23 - 24 Seville V Zaragozo
San Roque Lepe V Jerez Ind. ?
Puerto Real ? V Ayamonte
There are plenty of other minor fixtures ,but I think the editor will have to explain exactly which teams are local & where they play
I would have thought the smaller games you just pay @ the turnstiles
Chris

Re: COSTA ESURI - AYAMONTE
thanks for the link to Discover Ayamonte - have lived here for three years, but found the site very informative - even found out information about the village in which I live that I didn't know about.
For anybody that's interested visit discoverayamonte

Re: COSTA ESURI - AYAMONTE
Can any one advise me on this one. When we signed for our apartment we were given a copy of a standard contract in English. We gave our solicitor POA to purchase and duly received a faxed copy of the contract. It is now nearly a year after the expected date of completion and having improved my Spanish enough to understand the contract to check it through I note that the solicitor did not fill in the line on expected completion. It finishes ....estando prevista su terminacion y entrega aproximadamente ....then nothing. Surely a date should have been entered - especially as this leaves it open for the company to take as long as they like? This is aside from meeting the quality standards. We have not formally been asked to complete as yet. Do I have any recompense? I have asked my solicitor for a completed contract. Anyone else not had a date on their contract.
