Just feel it proper to recognise the efforts of the "tree trimming crew", this bunch of people (don't know if they were  residents or holiday makers) were active on site doing a great job about a week ago.

They trimmed a lot of the troublesome trees along the Calle de Murcia making it easy to walk on the pathway again instead of having to walk in the road.

Also Peter who did the same along the top end near Manoli's bar.

Your work has not gone unrecognised and I'd like to say how well you've done and that your work is appreciated.

See you soon

Hi Trisha

I'm not too sure of the dates but 2 of the festivals we have attended are:

1. Feastival of St John, this takes place in Alicante and there are lots of temporary bars and lots of really large "papier mache" statues which get set on fire at midnight. We heard the call "agua, agua" and as we got closer the local fire service drenched the willing participants as a baptism! Fantastic night, We stayed overnight in Alicante and the next morning when we got up everything was cleaned up as if nothing happened!

2. Roman festival in Cartagena. The Romans come ashore from a boat which docks in the port and then a huge procession takes place all the way up the main street. The different people from slaves to "Ceaser" and his aids all walk up the street. Different fighting legions walk up the street and give out food, drink, chocolate coins (to pay your taxes) and a huge man drawn catapult which fires a bucket of sweets for the children in the crowd to pick up.

These are two very enjoyable events and we recommend you get there early for parking and to see how the day builds up to the finale.

Hope this is useful

Regards

Hi to all, a friend of mine is looking for a long term rental of a property, preferably with a pool on our site. If anyone has any information or possible leads please send me a private message.

It seems after all these years things are starting to turn around so we may all be able to enjoy our dream.

Regards to all
