So what about Nerja then?

I think even the broom cupboard there would be out of my reach!

We are here at last, Frigiliana is beautiful, the people are lovely and everythng is going smoothly so far! Apart from the storms, mudslides and no power that is but it could be worse We walked up to the town hall the other day and felt like we were riding the rapids on the way back down, all the steps have turned into waterfalls and the roads into rivers . It just feels as if we have moved house so far not moved country but I'm sure it will all sink in at some point.

Are you coming for a brew Frank? I'll put the kettle on

Hi Diana,
So glad you made it
I'm looking forward to the next instalment of the adventure
What terrible weather you arrived to - can't believe the pictures of the hailstorms, and your area seems to have been particularly badly hit

you have to laugh don't you?

Put it on the back burner, we leave on Thursday, but we have a few weeks touring around the south first, we arrive in **** on the 13 Oct.
Our Spanish friend always tells me about the lovely weather they are having there, but he hasn't mentioned the heavy rains! That's like a few in here, only tell the good bits!

I quoted the above, leaving out all the rest of the post, so amused to get the following in a PM. As the post I was answering was a couple before my reply, for clarification, I quoted the last line.
The number of post here are way down to what they used to be, I'm hardly surprised. I'll probably be banned now for quoting their quote. Do I care, not a jot, always plenty more forums about, and none of which I have ever been chastised for using the quote facility.

Thats a bit strange

[frank]

Katy, you're in line for a telling off!

[daisylulu]

Hey Diana.......good to see you back online (very quick!!) Pleased your move went smoothly

Forums are a funny snapshot of social interaction aren't they! This site isn't so busy, why do you think this is? I wonder if there are not so many moving to Andalucia just now and that regular members are almost sussed about everything. (Just to recap, am following on from Frank's statement above.) Or could it be that there is a sort of concensus amongst members so not much conflict.

I am mainly writing about andalucian forums here so I hope this doesn't go into amigos lounge. I joined one forum and I only made one post, (I just queried if two posters weren't actually the same person) This member (or two) answered with the most abusive language and the post along with mine was deleted. When I posted again I was banned This person(s) goes on to post thousands of posts so I can only think the site owner goes along with it for the traffic.

Another inane forum has members who have posted something like, well thousands of posts. Most of them consist of things such as "have a glass of wine for me" type, yadda, yadda. I am only a member of two Andalucian ones but I often get comments printed in El Pais. I am a member of two USA forums...thats another story
