My dream job would have to be as a Technical Casting Engineer/Manufacture's Rep or Sales Engineer for the same. Either for a foundry that exports to the US, or a US consumer of Spanish cast metal products.


Or if that's not available I might have to sell Talegos de Chocolate down by the Heavy Metal Bars in ZZA or Donosti...

Hi,
Me and my wife are fed up with London and planning to move to Costa del Sol next year.
Currently I am working as a Beefeater and was wondering about the employment conditions in Malaga area for the same role. My wife Jill works as a lollipop lady and has 5 years of experience. She is willing to work in this area as well if its possible.
If anyone could give me some helpful advice before the big jump.

We got basic spanish at the moment but very enthusiastic about living in the sun

Hello Matt.
Beefeaters only work in the Tower of London, they don`t have anything similar here.
I have never seen a lollypop lady here either.
