Hi again Albert,

Have you actually visited the area or just seen it from pictures on the internet? Have a few good photos from the area that I can send to you if you are interested

Good to hear you like the area, hope all goes well for you, the area is growing with about 120 brits signed on the padron in Albuñol at the moment, although having said that a lot don't bother, so theres probably a lot more around. The other coastal village also have a good number of Brits living in them.

its a sham that a lot more don't register with the town hall as they are not doing the community any favours

As far as i know all of the foreign ex pats who live in my area are registered as this gives us a lot of capital,, that the town hall can use e.g free internet access free lessons for spanish,, better lighting,, rubbish removal,, better roads.

etc

Can't agree more with you on that...we got our place in June, but won't be out there again until another 2 weeks, but one of the first things on our list of things to do, will be to register at the Town Hall.

It is probably just a "British thing" that prevents a lot of others doing it, perhaps they think there is a hidden agenda behind it? But like you say the benefits are that you get better services all round, so why do people not register? Nature of the beast I suppose.

Where abouts are you Sheila?

Regards

Thanks for the insight. We know your area reasonably well as this is where we first started house-hunting...some stunning countryside up there.

Not quite sure how we ended up where we are, but just had a day out there once and fell in love with the area and the rest is history!

We have another 3 years on top of your date for when we can move out permanently (again due to work

), but at least it will give us plenty of time to get the place as we want it prior to us going out full time.

Good luck, Martin & Cath
