Grill restaurant
I have been ringing the grill restaurant in the grey area for three days. Does anyone know if they are closed this week
Road Markings
I wonder if other people are experiencing this problem. We went out for a Social evening last Saturday and drove off the urbanisation. On returning we came back via the N332 and along the bottom road by Iceland. This whole road at night, if there is any fog, is a total Nightmare. I had to drive less than 10 miles an hour down the length of the whole road owing to the fog being so thick, but what makes it so bad is the fact that all markings more or less on the whole length on that road have disappeared The centre line is so faint that you can hardly see it, but what makes it even worse is finding the humps. You are almost on them before you know they are there. You would think that the Local Council would be able to at least keep the lines painted to a good standard. OR even better - put **Cats Eyes** down the middle of the road.
The road markings in general on the Urb are very faint or non existent. T junctions, crossings and road-humps (tarmac) all need re-painting.
Referendum
What will happen to British expats in Spain if the UK leaves the EU? British expats will be third-country nationals in the EU!
johnmckernanjnr, you are not correct! The Norwegians are not third country nationals in the EU. Have you never heard about the EEA?
A third country national is someone who settles in a foreign country whilst looking to migrate to a third country. I hardly think that applies to most Brits living in Spain. Once again reindeer you have made an ass of yourself.
harrykarry0,
wishful thinking from your side. If the UK decides to leave the EU British people living in Spain will be under the same rules as for instance people from Algeria, Morocco and other non EU countries. So then you say "have made an ass of yourself" yes I wonder who has made an ass.
I really hope that the UK will stay in the EU and that the British people will see the advantages of being there.
And you can call me whatever you like but try to se the reality.
That was my point that you missed reindeer, if the UK leaves the EU I think we would be relegated to the second division known as the EEA.
johnmckernanjr,
I haven't missed the EEA possibility for the UK. But is that really what David Cameron wants? You have nearly the same rules to follow as if you are in the EU. You have to follow among other things the free movement of goods, services, persons and capital — throughout the 31 EEA States. And Mr Cameron does not want those rules for the British people. Or do you have any other information what he wants?
Two interesting articles in the free press this week. One of them in The Euro weekly news had a great story regarding the UK leaving....Pensioners wouldn't have access to free Medical care, also our Pensions could be frozen meaning lots of people would want to go back to the UK resulting in the value in our properties dropping dramatically.
I urge all expats to make sure you have your vote and vote to STAY IN.
poppies
i am noticing a serious lack of poppies this year.
reindeer keeper i seriously hope you misunderstood my comment and thought i meant live poppies instead of worn ones to show how we remember all the brave people who gave their lives for their countries.....i hope you wasnt being flippant about it no matter what nationality you are.

We're the new owners of a place on Marina del Mar 1. Came out for a few days last week, but didnt have time to get our WiFi reconnected.
Back in UK for a few weeks , but can anyone put me in touch with someone from Res & Owners Assoc for MDM1 who we can get the WiFi password sorted from , which i gather costs Euro 35.
Previous owner didnt disconnect the WiFi , but , as I'd have done , didnt pass over the Password.
Any names , email addresses , hyperlinks would be great , Thx ,

The shoe boxes have to be wrapped in Christmas paper and the top must be left open. They can range from the ages of 1 - 16.years.
If you want to help us, please either drop your boxes into the AAN charity shop under the laundry near to Cagneys bar or into the Urbanisation Office opposite Dialprix.
These boxes will be given out for the children with the Christmas food from,the charity. You can also give food, this can be taken also to the two collection points.
Thank you.

The Royal British Legion - Open Day
Hello everyone,
As some of you will already be aware, I have recently taken over as manager of The Posh Club, next to the Thursday & Sunday market area, in urbanisation La Marina. I am delighted to be able to inform everyone, that we have recently entered into a collaboration with The Royal British Legion whereby we hope to help raise the profile of this fantastic charity, in our local area.
Our first combined event, to be held at the club on Tuesday 10th of November, from 10:00 am - 2:00 pm will be an Open Day, whereby members of the public can meet with existing branch members and committee members to hear about local branch membership issues and current welfare initiatives operated by The Legion. In addition, the British Vice-Council in Alicante, Mr Lloyd Milen, is also expected to be in attendance.
This event is open to everyone (existing Royal British Legion members & non-members, ex-service personnel & non-service personnel alike).
If you are interested in becoming a member, or are just interested in finding out more about the fantastic work that The Royal British Legion do in your area, why not pop along and meet up with them.
We look forward to seeing you on the 10th.
