Here we come!!
Here we come!!
After what seems an age from when we originally filmed our house hunting for the BBC back in August we are now on our way to our new home in Los Molinos near Montefrio. The van's almost loaded and the ferry for Monday night to St Malo is booked. Here we come.......

Good luck and welcome to Andalucia

Hi Kyt (and Coolbreeze),
Good to hear you made it ok.
Any info about things like getting on the Internet, changing UK reg car to Spanish plates, English speaking vet , even used English speaking Dentist the other day, just give us a shout or Olivefarmer as he is close to Montifrio too.
Unless you have a "micro climate" where you are it was only 5c this morning when I was walking the dogs on our hill.
Regards

Bbbrrrrrrrrrr ...... I'm sticking to the coast I love the landscape inland but my old bones need the warmth. I'm already in socks, layers of clothes and a fleece in the evening when the temperature drops to 14 degrees. I'm just a southern softy. Is it cooler up there in the summer?
When do you get your 15 minutes of fame on the BBC then Kyt, or have I missed it?

Hi Wicksey,
Inland cooler in summer ...no , we get a wider range of temperatures, no sea to keep things in the middle.
Had two weeks in July when the temperature was 39c day and 32c night
The lowest we have had in winter -2c, and usually get 3 days of snow..still when we are living 2/3 way up a "hill" that's higher than Snowdon got to expect this. Great views

No way of escaping the summer heat then!! I spoke to a lady yesterday that was looking at going to inland France, where her son has just moved to, to escape the Spanish summers. I found the weather worse there, as you say Jennifer, extremes of heat and cold without the sea to moderate things. It wasn't unusual to reach 40 degrees in summer and the humidity was awful. I never thought of the winters here being humid but I do suffer from joint pains too, which I didn't when it was -10 in France. No where's perfect .... not on our budget anyway
