Re: Latest Chiclana Scam!!
I think so, yes there are problems but there are problems everywhere of different types. What I love is the friendliness of the people. I will go for a walk and everyone speaks to you even the kids. That certainly wouldn't happen at home. My Spanish neighbour supplies me with veg from her garden so I made her a pot of home made strawberry jam as a thank you. Mind you after trying it I may not get any more veg!!! The only problem as far as I am concerned is the lack of work. Trying hard with the Spanish but there is no way I could take on a job where Spanish is needed which is the majority of jobs in the area.

My Husband wants to move out there but the language barrier is a worry as you really do need it to get any job/business going out there. Our Spanish is OK and we have no problems when we visit but it isn't good enough for a full blown Spanish conversation.
I am sure you neighbour will love your jam!
