El Presidente and Moi are home after a good flight with Ryanair which arrived 20 minutes early to lovely sunshine.............we left Luton in strong winds and rain!!
There has been some discussion on the forum about the cost of living in Spain.....................compare this!!
Chinese meal for 5 including 2 beers and 2 glasses of wine ( no pudding ).......... 96 pounds.
Veg pasta bake and chips and 2 sausages and chips............14 pounds
1 coffee, 1 tea and one slice of cardboard coffee cake......12 pounds 50 pence
Council tax...cheapest band.....965 pounds...................
Menu del dia ( and wine ) 7€ tops..................Community Fees 330€ per year...............coffee ( good coffee )...1€.....................
I know where I would rather be....................AND:...........THE SUN 
Now it's back to the grindstone for El Presidente, what with the AGM stuff to sort out and get posted so that everyone can have the chance to vote on thier Community, actually it's all about done and should be posted out early next week.
So far, we have only had 2 persons knock on the door and the phone has only rung once ( perhaps we slipped home un noticed? )...........................HOWEVER, El Presidente and Moi would like to say a BIG THANK YOU to the kind and thoughtful person who has run a key ( or something ) down the side of our car while we have been away. The car was in the secure garage and only about 20 other owners have keys to the garages and I really don't want to think who may have done this cowardly, thoughtless but probably expensive thing. 
Still, onward and upward ( as the actress said to the Bishop ) tomorrow is another day, so lets see what it will bring for El Presidente and Moi !!
