We have had a villa in la Marina for 18 yrs  , although we are not permanently living here in Spain . We come about 6-8 times a year to stay and our family stay over the school holidays when we find it too hot . I have a walking difficulty , caused by the 44 yrs of nursing , it’s damaged my spine . My husband loves music especially 50/60 and generally loves eating out and entertaining at home . Several of our good friends have died over the last 2 yrs . Are there any like minded people out there with similar interests ?

Hello John

Perhaps the Costaexpats in Crevillent is too far for you but it might inspire you to start your own expats group.

Kind regards

Hi Richard , thank you for your reply . We could try to start a Expats group in La Marina However if you don’t mind we could come to one of your meetings one week . Crevillent is not too far away , how would you feel about us visiting? 

Many thanks for taking the time to reply 

John and Cecelia

Hello John and Cecelia

Our group would be delighted to have you come along!  The next meeting, in 3 weeks, will be at the Los Molinos restaurant in the Crevillent to Matola road.   No need to have the meal, which is always excellent (12.50 each) because we like to have a drink and a chat on their covered terrace first.

Please let me have a PM with your contact details and I will put you on our email list.

Kind regards

Richard

Hello John

There is a FB group Costa Blanca Menu Del Dia which we belong too, people rate restaurants they have been too and occasionally there is a meet up to go to a restaurant and make friends.

Hope this helps

Hi,

My husband and I live in Gran Alacant and there is a group here that does meeting with music etc..  There is also the Bowling club which we are social members of and they also do events.  Every Monday there is a quiz in Lounge D in the area known as Masa Square which is above Dialprix supermarket  which is not far from the commercial centre - the questions are very much geared to older participants - no recent pop music etc..  There is also occasional fun nights usually on a Friday.  We are a friendly crowd so come along some night.  You can contact me first if you want and I can meet you there.

Hi, Monday night is quiz night, so you have just missed one but will happily meet you and introduce you to the Lounge D group.  We are supporters of both Elche Childrens Care Home and SATS Dog Rescue and at present in the midst of setting up a SATS Charity Shop here in Gran Alacant so this week is quite busy or I would have suggested coffee.  We will be at the new shop later this week to prepare it so feel free to drop by.  I can give you the address.  Enjoy the sun as it was not so good over the last week!

Bobbie
