Sorry about the misinformation in my last posting. I have obviously had phase 5 as part of phase 4. Somehow I had assumed that the town houses would have been facing out the way. This is good news for the open space at the end which Ricardo reckons to be landscaping. Bad news on the other hand for phase 4 who now have the townhouses right in front of them.

The sooner the development gets finished the better. Unfortunately there are people with less inocent intent getting access to occupied houses through the gaps in the unfinished parts. We learnt the hard way to have grills put on all windows and doors no matter how inaccessible some of them may seem.

We bought a town house in phase 1 and moved in last February. We were always aware of other town houses in phase 5 at the other end of the plot. We haven't seen any sign of building as yet. The area to built on was cleared and the walls on the end of phase 4 were plastered and completed as if this was the end. There are no windows or balconies on this end.

Given that there is to be a phase 5 this should not impact on the views from anywhere other than the poor Spanish residences that back onto the plot.

At the beginning of December Ricardo was still talking about December completion dates for phases 2,3 and 4. I can hardly see this happening for 2 and 3and4 looks impossible. As I said, building work hadn't even started for phase 5 so April 07 seems a bit optimistic.

We thoroughly enjoy Catral. When the community can club together to get the swimming pool heated it will be even better. We were in on 23 November (as a dare for a birthday!) and it was freezing.
