Hi Martin and Matt

How lucky you are to be in Alicante !   How did you find the trip from Dublin?  

Hope you have an enjoyable few days there.   Best of luck with your house search.  😀

Regards 

Maria 

Hi Maria: the trip via Dublin was uneventful, we had our paperwork in order with letters from our Spanish legal and banking people showing evidence of our reasons for travelling. We encountered no difficulties on either side. We took responsibility for our own health and safety. We completed all the NIEs, legal and banking tasks and met with a couple from the forum which was lovely. We have an offer in on an apartment in Petrer: fingers crossed that it will happen 🤞. Thanks for your good wishes Maria. Keep well keep safe. Mar

Thanks for that I've probably misread it 😆

Hi Alan

I recall speaking on the forum with you previously, it is nice to hear from you.  Matt and I have begun moving into our new home in Petrer, we are currently travelling between the Irish Republic and Petrer, with next March/APRIL being our date to live here permanently.  We also live very close to the town hall, on Calle Sancho Tello.

We have had the great pleasure in meeting up with Mark and Kathy on this and our previous visit; we sadly return to Ireland tomorrow and are not due to return until early January with our remaining possessions.

We would be delighted to meet up with you also when we return in January, if this is agreeable to you?

Kathy and Mark are the loveliest of people and have made us feel most welcome as new residents to Petrer. 

Every good wish.

Martin y Matt
