we just stopped off at a restaurant bar called someplace else on the fuengirola to alhaurin road opposite st anthonys school for lunch and were very impressed.
not like most english places the menu was good the prices average and has views to mijas mountains.
I had salmon goujons with a nice little salad, mayo, a tomato and red onion salad. hubby had potato skins smothered in chilli con carne, and we had a bowl of chips,
yes we were hungry. the portions were huge the food good quality. other customers food looked good as well. total bill 18 euros including drinks.
Its easy to park away from the hustle and bustle. nice chairs and felt I could sit there all day. normally I want to get up and go.
someone just told me they are going back to the uk. such a shame. hope its not true. always the way you find someone who gets it right and they close.
the person who told me must live close by but has never eaten there. if bars or restaurants are good why do people not support them. give it go and maybe I shant lose my 
new lunch place.

Hi janny, my neighbours tell us that there land and house are urban, they dont seem to understand that

your house is classed as urban but their land is RUSTIC. try telling them and they just look at you as if to say

your a liar or being horrible. wake up people and smell the coffee. there is talk that the junta is going to legalise

all illegal properties except those in protected parklands or in a dangerous position. I dont know how true this story

is It came from a lawyer.  I think this is the only way around the problem. lets wait and see.

As I am speaking there are at least 2 people building new houses, I can see them from my villa, its amazing that they can just carry on.
My neighbours were stopped recently for putting a new roof on their house. One law ffor one and one law for another.

SARAH C. Please be careful if you decide to use a lawyer, in our experience over 11 years lawyers we have used for various things
are quite useless and just want your money, and quite a bit upfront, they will promise you many things, everything you want to hear
and actually do nothing. I live in cartama and know how dreadful the town hall are, I can tell you many things and advise you from 
experience and is free of charge.
My phone has been off this afternoon , the battery was dead..

sarah, ask your mum to contact me and I will try to help her, The estate agent who sold her the house has broken laws, as new laws are now in
place. how long has the house been there. there are things you can do. It is very frustrating as the town hall are a bunch of muppets who make 
it all up as they go along.
your mum can call me on 678517599 and I will arrange to meet her.
