Hi Peter,sad news, so sorry to hear that.

How are you anyway, have you made a permanent home in Spain yet.? Do you remember Judith and myself, we met you for coffee on Garrucha harbour. Am i right in thinking you opted for a property on Mazzaron? We have been out here for 2 1/2 years now living in Palomares near Desert Springs golf course. It would be good to hear how things are with you.

                                                                                      Regards,  Steve.

Hi Les, as i said in the post, we did not buy we decided to rent and put our money to better use. There are a lot of legal builds in the village which are for sale due to various circumstances such as people returning to the U.K for family or financial reasons and some are at excellent knock down prices. We found our property by staying in the village for our holidays and walking round the area looking down all the various streets to look for estate agents signs. If you need any more advice or want to come and have a look we have met many people who let appartments and i could perhaps sort you something out !

                                                                        Regards, Steve.

Hi Les, sorry about being a bit tongue in cheek!! That;s my Yorkshire man coming out.

In answer to your question...we are renting a property in the village, we swore after ACC we would not get caught out again with dodgy house deals. Seven years ago it seemed a good idea to buy the property but now at our age we find we can put our money to better use i.e having a good retirement. I don't think these days you can be 100% with any property on the market, no matter who you employ among the legal fraternity to look into the ins and outs.

Regarding the air disaster, if there is anything in the surrounding areas it would probably take 20 years to catch up with us by which time i would be too old to worry about it..ha ha.

If by chance you ever get to Palomares you will have to look us up, we usually frequent the Dulce Casa in the village centre near the farmacia. It is run by Brian and Lesley and is the best food in the village, they have our phone number.

Best wishes,   Steve and Judith.

Hi Les, thank you for your information regarding the radiation accident over Palomares. My wife and i knew all about this when we first embarked on our mission to purchase a property on ACC so we knew exactly what we were letting ourselves in for when we moved into the village 2 1/2 years ago. I must add that the village is a thriving agricultural community from new born babies to pensioners who are well into old age and i have yet to see anyone walking around after dark who is actually glowing green or any other colour for that matter. Produce grown in the countryside around the village is exported all over the globe and no one seems to be reporting any ill effects from radiation so may i suggest that if your article was meant to be a bit of scaremongering it has fallen on deaf ears.My wife and i are in our early sixties and are looking forward to a long and healthy life in the spanish sunshine in a lovely village on the shores of the mediterranean sea.

                                                                                                 Stephen and Judith.

Hi d d, just read your October post. My wife and i were buying on ACC and we also ended up in Palomares. We  have been in the village for 2 1/2 year and  love the lifestyle. I'm sure our paths must have crossed at sometime but i don't recall anyone called Dan or is that just a nickname? Do you live here permanent or just holiday here? It would be nice to meet up for a drink and a reminisce some time if you fancy it!!!.
