Sir John

Hi I am trying to make some new expat friends in the gandia/oliva,javea/denia area,anyone want to meet up for a chat/coffee ect,or recommend a meeting place/bar/social club(not gandia area social club) getting a bit lonely where i am up here in the mountains ,not sad or lonely yet but hovering sometimes,it seems everyone is just selling up and going back to the uk,ghost town here,just looking for some friends and company,thanks.

Sir John

Thanks i'll look into it...

I hadnt forgotten your pm btw
My swimming pool has no water in it at the moment and I'm trying to get it cleaned between rain showers and hurricanes

Sir John

No Probs Mitz,

I have no pool but sometime wish i had, when i look at the other neighbous that have,just a jealousy thing i suppose but i can live with that ,local poli with pool is just 5 minutes walk away for me to use..

The next time I am over I will look in on HoneyDukes and check out the conversation evening, not that I can concoct a sentence in Spanish at the best of times, I even have trouble in English .

I will make a note and pm Sir John before I hit Gandia, it's always good to know another person in the locality and perhaps we can meet up and have a yak, I'll pay for the coffee/tea.

Hi all, we are on our way back to the oliva area the first week in April. Thanks for letting us know when quiz night is on. I think that Tuesday 2nd may be a holiday, will that impact quiz night? We look forward to meeting new people.

Mitzyboy

I dont believe so, as Michel seems to ignore them :-) Quiz night there is a busy night for him. Might see you there :-)
