I appreciate all the efforts on our behalf from all members of communities and entidad - however the entidad fees should not be within the authority of the president of a community. 

The community is merely acting as a collection point for these fees, not a controller of them, and therefor I do not understand why the president should require a legal challenge to release them. This is merely a client account for onward payment! 

There is a meeting planned for the entidad within the next couple of weeks, and i would respectfully request that there is an agenda item to change the collection method, so that these fees are paid direct to the entidad in future. 

I am informed by an entidad member that this would also be of benefit to the community, such that if an individual does not pay, the council will chase them as a debtor, rather than the community having to pay on their behalf to avoid interest charges.

From what I have heard, I would avoid roda-village, someone was telling me that they didnt turn up when they said they would, and didnt bother to let her know they werent coming etc. 

RodaFM do seem to be getting a large share of the market - not the cheapest, but everyone speaks highly of them.

there is a shop near torrevieja called new2you, run by some English people.  They do have quite a fast turnaround, so it is probably best to look at their website or call them.

I have found the mercadona online and they have an English version!  It was a bit tricky getting the website to recognise our address - it uses 30710 for the postcode - but I phoned the helpline to check that it was going to get delivered to the right house, so now am up and running.  The delivery charge is about €7

It is great having a small shop on hand for things that we can carry, but delivery is the way forward for the heavy stuff.
