Check ANY insurance is still valid if you cease to be resident in the UK. So once you exceed 183 days in Spain you become resident here...

Thanks.
I wont be exceeding the 183 days so not a concern for now 👍

Watch out for the round a bouts. It can be a surprise when you find guy in inside lane goes all the way round to the third exit.

All the lovely ladies love bikes>>

Hehehe.
I am a lovely lady, CIS gender heterosexual female (boring by todays standards) so it would have to be some very lovely men before Id risk my paintwork on the untrained 😂

Yes Ive discovered roundabouts are sometimes a bit of a free for all. Like the idea of priority doesnt exist!

Just a word of warning if you ever travel thru France - right always has the priority. You do not see it to much here in Spain or there is a stop sign for you..

Happy travels..

Cheers

I hate to be on here asking this but I suppose we’re all sympathetic in Blighty when homesick foreigners miss their countries food so I’m just gonna go for it and hope not to get a bashing. The decaf tea I found in only one of the 5 supermarkets I’ve visited is awful. How might I go about finding a Brit Supermarket near Salobrena? Ive googled it and found one 40 mins away in Torrox but was hoping for something closer in Motril. If there’s not one fair enough I’ll settle for being grateful one exists at all!

I don’t want to be one of those brits with my luggage full of tea but… 😂

I get mine here in the Valencia region at a shop called "dealz" it is the spanish version of the pound shop or something like that.. I do not know if they have one nearby or even outside of this region tho.

Holy Custard, when flying to Spain from the UK it is ESSENTIAL you bring the following items:

1) Passport
2) Flight ticket
3) Large supply of tea bags.

every Consum, carrefour, mercadonna or el campo in Spain has PG tips and since brexit they have come down in price to €1,75 from €1,77.
The problem is finding a name brand decaf version of english tea...

Yorkshire tea?

If you are going to be picky then Dealz stocks it.

here is the link for decaf - https://dealz.es/infusiones-typhoo-one-cup/

ASDA do 480 Yorkshire tea bags for 9 sterling.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

You can get 1040 Yorkshire tea bags for 56.51 euros on Amazon Spain.

That would make 5 pence per cup of tea! Shocking!

At that rate with the amount of tea I drink I would have to remortgage the house!

Do you have a price for the Dealz Yorkshire teabags?

Have not been in a while but if I remember correctly it was €6 for a pretty big box.

Thank you very much growinspain for that hot tip....

I shall make my way to one of their stores and see what I can find....
