more questions???
Hi, we have decided to move to La Marina, we were looking at Almoradi or Albatera, but I have a 13 year old daughter and I think its best to move to an area that has more English people to start with?? well anyway could anyone tell me about the schools in the area, are they within the urbanisation or far away??? I dont drive so would this be a problem? Think thats all for now, I am having yet another sleepless night with everything going through my head.
hi Ian,
Thanks for getting back to me. We will be renting to start, just to see if we like it.
I did look to moving to a Spanish village at first (which I would prefer eventually), but because of our lack of Spanish at the moment and one of my daughters ages I though it would be best to move to a place that has more English people to start. Do you know if the buses are school buses? because my other daughter is only 5 I dont realy want to put her on a school bus on her own.
WHY QUESADA NEEDS YOU TO VOTE PP
Four years ago we asked for your trust, the new health centre the security cameras the repairs and maintenance carried out are all testament to how the PP of Rojales fulfill their promises.This year we are asking you to once again place your trust in us. we will incorporate more european residents into the town hall, we will continue to keep the finances of Rojales on an even keel and we will encourage the integration of all of our citizens in every way. Other parties may be making outrageous promises they have no intention of keeping, in our programme we only promise what we know we can deliver. with Antonio Martinez Canovas as Mayor we have a tireless worker at the service of all of the citizens of Rojales.
BE A GOOD NEIGHBOUR
VOTE PP
Well from what I have heard you have my vote. I think that you have done a great job and hope you will for the next 4 years.
Can you tell me if your party has any involvement or intention to back the campaign to change the schooling hours in this area to be the same of those in the rest of the valencian region? Further information can be found on the link below x

Dining out in Benijofar
Tonight we are trying a restaurant in Benijofar called Fratelli´s!Offering Homemade Italian cuisine, which has been recommended by a friend of ours. We will let you know our feedback. Any one else tried this restaurant?
The meal last night was fantastic and the atmosphere was excellent. Every table was taken so would suggest booking a place before you go. We had the 4 course menu de la noche. The four of us had a variety of different choices but I had sardines to start with, for the main I had fusilli pasta with panchetta in a tomato based sauce, dessert was a lovely homemade almond cake and we finished this with a coffee at the end. Plus we had at least 3 drinks each all for a fantastic price of 57 euros. The 4 courses are 12.50 per person. Great and very enjoyable evening. We recommend Fratelli´s to anyone who enjoys good Italian food at a reasonable price.
Hello,
Can you tell me what days they are open and where is the restaurant exactly. Oh and do you have a tel number. Much appreciated!
Hi js,
I believe they are opened on Monday - Saturday from 6.00pm - 11.00pm and their phone number is 966713645.
Let us know what you think! Thanks
Day at the Beach
What another beautiful day in Almoradi today! We are going to the beach today at Guadamar. The beach at Guadamar is so clean and tidy and you always find a nice spot to relax. We tend to bring a picnic and plenty of fresh water. A word of warning you do need to be careful in the sea and watch the flags for warnings as there are some strong currents which can be dangerous

Sunday's Elections - voting advice
Elections "VOTING in both the municipal and autonomous community elections takes place on Sunday 22nd May. Non-Spanish residents who are registered on the municipal census ('Padron') and the electoral role, are entitled to vote ONLY... in the municipal elections, using the WHITE coloured voting slips and the WHITE envelope. PLEASE DO NOT mark the voting paper with a cross or with any other mark as this will result in your vote becoming VOID. When you attend the polling station, you should take with you a current, recognised form of identity which contains a photograph (passport, ID card, Driver's Licence). The POLLING STATION where you place your vote is, most likely, the nearest local school to your home.
I understand from watching the Spanish news late last night that the PP(Partido Popular) had won the majority of the votes in the local elections. Apparently gaining many seats from the PSOE. Lets see how this develops in terms of changes that most people are looking for and how this transpires towards next years General Election.
There would be no problem getting your daughter to school from La Marina as each morning we see several school buses go past our office. The main schools are about 2 miles away in San Fulgencio. Will you be buying or renting when you come over?? People who do not speak Spanish prefer this area as there is a good mix of English speaking people.
