anyone fancy a night out in Javea? It would have to be a weekend though.....a Friday or Saturday night. Or even a Sunday morning for coffee would be good. Now all we need to do is find a date that is suitable for most. So far, those interested are: Lynnxa Mitzyboy Montgomail (will try to organise for July if most are in agreement) Rugbymatt (or at least that's what I think he meant on his post) and ourselves of course. Anyone else? Any suggestions for venue? |

You need to go to see what goes on. Loads of them live in a Raj type fantasy world dying to tell you "what they used to be in the UK" They should provide a knife sharpener at the door.Give it a go Mitzy you will love it.

Whilst they are here though all they do is try to find bargains at the Jalon market.....! Makes you wonder..... |

Makes you wonder..... we had an ordinary life there......and lead an ordinary life here......but much warmer, healthier, less consumerist (is that a word?.you know what I mean!), more freedom for the kids...better, cheaper food etc. etc.... |
