Does anyone know of a reliable taxi service that runs from San Javier airport to Roda and vice versa?

 The classes that they are offering are Body Attack (high impact aerobics), Body Pump (work out with weight bars), Body Combat (aerobic combat moves to music), Urban Rebounding (an aerobics class on mini trampolines) and quite a few others.  These are all classes that are available at most good British gyms.

 I attended the gym presentation which I found quite by accident at the Clubhouse but was very pleased to find out more.

I believe it was unfortunately poorly advertised and I got the impression that this may have been the Clubhouse fault not the gym.  Although they were there over about 3 days.  

I was very impressed with what I saw and heard and a gym on site is long overdue regardless of how it has come about.

I was told that the monthly membership will be 45 euros with a joining fee.  There will be daily and a weekly pass rate from 15 euros.  They are also running some fantastic aerobic classes, which are exactly the same as you find in the large commercial british gyms.  There is to be a sauna etc and sports/aromatherapy massage offered also.  The owners are British and seem very keen to provide as much as they can for Roda.

I think in order for it to be sustainable it will definitely need the support of the whole Roda community.  They are scheduled to open on the 16 May.

I hope this helps

 After four years of waiting we love our new apartment and the gardens.  Heaven?  Well almost.  

Day One - Three young men arrive in a black 4x4 complete with towels and pool noodles (coloured floats)  though quite why three strapping lads would need floats escapes me.  They marched through the flower beds and stripped off by the pool.  Suspicious I asked where they came from and got a load of bluster.  When I threatened to call security they quickly dressed and ran away.  I last saw them going at high speed out of the back gate of Roda.

 

Day Two - two young boys swimming in the pool having deposited bikes, bags and belongings around the pool.  I asked them where they came from and they told me they were from Phase One!  One of them told me cheerily that his dad was coming back for him (Thank goodness for that).  I was tempted to ask if Dad made a habit of depositing them in other people's back yards but thought that question would be better answered by Dad.  And he did come back later - much later, in his car equipped with sun lounger cushions, mother and a picnic!.  I was fully expecting the furniture to arrive at any moment.  Is it me or what, but the phrase brass neck springs to mind.  I did not envisage having the pool outside my door being monopolised by people from other phases.  Never mind when Phase Four is fully occupied perhaps we can arrange away days in our cars and with bikes and assorted junk and go and camp on his doorstep.

Today Mr Phase 1 and his family are back complete with the kitchen sink and have now been joined by a male and female in a pick up truck who are clearly not from Roda.
