Rojales is a nice place..

I bought my blue top property there in 2003, built after  18 months .

good mix of people.

torresat was the company i picked for uk tv, and they installed a tiny dish and decoder, cost  20 euros a month..

Good eat as much as you like fish restaurant there, they cook the food you've chosen in front of you ...

well worth goin at 9 euros a head!

Enjoy.

Adam...

Iam not far from there..a great place to work within the bitish community if you're not spanish speaking,

when going self employed you will have to pay 'Autonomo' which  is a killer at 250 Euros a month...which is standing charge for national insurance contributions.

This will allow your kids to attend  school....with  other benefits...

Best of luck with your move

Good luck Bob..Hope it all works out...

Its def important to have an income / pension or other while living / retiring in spain.

Its a great shame that the ages of  30 to 45 cant survive with working in spain , and are having to return to UK   just seems the autonomo takes  everything, leaves not enough to live on....let alone paying a mortgage / bills...

Would be nice if the Spanish government would relax the Autonomo law till business make a certain figure...or

pay as you earn ....simililar to the UK..

Ment to say.....

if you use the calculation ...      Watts of appliance  DIVIDED  by the house voltage of 230v....gives you the current rating....
