Its their permanent home and can you in all honesty say that you would like to live next to a place that has live music outside ( 2/3 times a week) throughout the warmer months, come on be honest.

Me and the hubbs have said a few times if we had the money we'd love the villa on the left of Jags - nope not coz we are in the Jag Gang - but we'd be cheeky enough to ask to use his pool as its a bloody cracker and we couldnt ever afford on that big - plus we'd be nearer to the golf for my son who's a very keen player - you never know if the villas do come down in price - maybe one day we'd be able to afford one - the way its going i think its going to be retirement age - but hey ho i live in hope with mi lottery ticket every week xxxxx

We took our youngest son and his girlfriend with us this year and they have both fell in love with Ayamonte - how could they not - our oldest son was driving over in Spain last year and had a quick stop off at a friends for a shower and something to eat and he liked it for the short time he was there - he and his family were supposed to be coming on holiday this year with us but it didnt work out for them
I was talking to both our sons yesterday and they both maybe interested in buying over there maybe in the next couple of years (youngest is at Uni at the min and oldest one is just buying his first house) - so you never know if we bought it 3 ways maybe we could afford one - but be warned CE - we have 6 dogs between us all xxxxx

It does seem to have gone un-noticed though .... or ignored

Also, in my earlier 1st post, I suggested that if Jag's ex-business partner was genuine in his comment that he would welcome other businesses in CE thriving and developing, including Jag's, pehapes he would be more than happy to sign any such petition, been a bit quiet from them hasn't it, hasn't seemed too forward to stand up and say "yes" they would sign have they ?.
Also, rather than piffling on about all this support for Jag's, it's not rocket science is it, if you disagree with any such support, don't sign the partition....simples !.
