Hi

We’ve just been quoted 5k euros for a wooden pergola as follows:

470x278 pergola formed by 2 pillars of 20x20, 1 mother beam of 20x20 and 6 beams of 14x8 laminated pine and water varnished

It seems expensive so we wondered if anyone has had experience of a) building one or b) buying one from a shop such as Leroy Merlin? 

Hola!

We are planning to move to the Vejer area at the end of the summer with our almost 6 year old daughter who needs to start school then. 

To start we'll visit for 6 weeks at the start of March 2024 to make arrangements and look for a new home. 

So our most pressing questions at the moment are:

Where to find a short term (6 weeks) rental home central and accessible 3 March - 14 April 2024

The best police station to apply for NIE numbers for the 3 of us (any additional advice here would be appreciated also!)

And a heads up on local school information for our daughter, who, we hope, will become more motivated to learn Spanish when the language is all around us. She speaks English and  Swedish.

We have so many questions but let's start there, I think.

Thank you in advance for any practical or encouraging info you may have for us. We are excited but also a little apprehensive of taking this big step.

Best wishes 

Liesl, Elena and Scott

I am desperately trying to check the welfare of my Step Father who is based in Alcaidesa. I last spoke with him in July however there has been some activity on his mobile phone more recently. Unfortunately I know the road and urbanisation that he lives(d) on but not the number of the apartment. He was not in contact with any other family so I have been unable to check if he is still there or if he is ok. I am very concerned and am looking to book a flight out to see for myself, Im using this forum as a last resort. His name is Bill Mulholland. Last know to be a resident of La Alcaidesa Golf and Beach Resort, Av. Del Golf, 11360, San Roque. He has a little dog and would commonly visit La Finca restaurant and a local square (semi circle) of restaurants/shops closer to the beach. Any help anyone can offer would be greatfully received.

I am about to move to el puerto ( mid feb) and are looking for good internet provider for the house but also a mobile. Are you able to advise on where to look and how to apoorach? How much earlier I should schedule installation ect thank you. 

Hola we are back in town tomorrow viewing a property if anyone wants to meet for a coffee it would be great. 

Hi everyone! I’m a young Spanish teacher and lawyer who moved to Chiclana last year. I have been teaching Spanish as a second language for a some years, as well as English. Have you just moved to Chiclana and are you willing to learn Spanish? Do you already speak the language and would you like to improve your Spanish? If “yes” is the answer for either of those questions, then just contact me and we can talk! I’m the teacher you are looking for! 

My wife and I are visiting to today to view some houses does anyone fancy meeting for a coffee and a chat? Would be great to meet some locals. 

Estoy de visita hoy para ver algunas casas. ¿Alguien le apetece quedar para tomar un café y charlar? Sería genial conocer a algunos lugareños.
