We moved here almost 2 years ago and are still integrating into the local community.

Much easier here than where we lived previously, El Vendrell and Torremolinos.

Our interests go from Food, keep fit, old radios and cars, electronics and model aircraft,

although there does not appear to be a local flying field.

I guess I should add that we are a bit ancient............

Thanks for the info,

We will try out the beginners class in January, we are quite busy at the moment.

Have a Happy Christmas. I guess its ok to say that with only 12 days to go and party time getting into its swing.

Mike

Really depends what you want to spend, We Ikea'd our kitchen  had other furniture moved down from Catalunya but not really worth it. Check out places on Av Cortes Valencianas or hermanos Garcia near Mcdonalds. better than Conforama in our opinion especially for the smaller houses in Torretas. where every sqm counts.
