Well I live slightly inland in the mountains, spanish neighbours, 10 mins to the beach, town, 5 to the shops. Have my own fruit trees, spring water well and a good view from all over. I get the best of all worlds, if I want British, I can find them easily enough, but can also get cosmopolitian as well as Spanish. From over my computer I can see over the valley to the sea and my terrace faces south so I get the sun all day. So I can get rural life as well as beach, town or city and not far from an airport if I want to explore another country over the weekend. 2 hours up the road is snow in the winter so again variety. I live near Ojen which you probably know.

If you think for one second I would live anywhere near you then think again!

Strikes me that Poor RugbyMatt is being bullied here! I am sure that you would be the most inobtrusive of neighbours ;) As for your list you are compiling, perhaps you should invest in one of those old fax machine rolls?:D

Am I to take it that you are a totally misunderstood member?:eek:

What a mistake to make! :oThere I was feeling dreadfully sorry for you, and then I read some of your postings.....I retract totally my previous posting :p
There is little doubt that, as a new member, I was totally taken in by your more than slightly misleading character:rofl:

I have heard that Borneo is the place to be, mind you it's possible you could lose your head!;);)

It must have given you such a warm fuzzy feeling reading all the replies to your query from your BE mates!

But seriously, why are you asking for recommendations? I thought you already knew Spain pretty well. And I somehow didn´t have you labelled as wanting to be where the rest of the expats would go.

Seeing as Matt's list is growing, I thought I'd give him a helping hand ;)
