I will be visiting 'yet again' during August and really don't want to get a taxi across Marbella looking at hundreds of urbies. To this end, I will value any feedback. you won't be taking taxis for 2 reasons. 1. youre best chance of a rental is thro agents who will drive you around. 2. You dont see...

if you are renting a flat in this area its all urbanisations and its going to cost around 2000E a month or much more in you are in either Marbella front line or Puerto Banus. Most of the ones are "quality" except Dame el noche which seems to be about 90% empty at most times! why are you as...

Who told you there would be a job with a TEFL course? there are jobs going, they pay 10E an hour and have no contract or guaranteed hours. Normally schools teach 2-3 hours a day with one teacher. Its a nice part time job for the missus. Thats about 150E a week.... a little short of the 2k £ a month...

we employed an agent who charged 150~E to clean, change sheets etc. One time he charged 400E at the tenant left the place like a pig-sty - I believe people advertise in Sur at about 50E a time?

I just wonder if in 10 years time any of them would be proud to show an episode to their children/grand children?

i'm sure its already recorded to make into Presentationsets of DVD for presents!

38??? was that the size of the mouth or the words in its vocabulary or even the IQ? anyone else think the "38" is an actress, I think the others could be "real". Certainly the nail woman is not that bad. Admin edit: Potentially libellous postings will be edited or deleted along ...

Most of the slappers don't live in Marbella City - they live in district of Marbella - and unfortunately exist between Puerto Banus and Nueva Andalucia - and it is stuffed FULL of them. You can't walk to your car without hearing the dulcet scream of the east/south london slapper ......... ERE WOT U ...

You must have had Tenants from Hell, unfortunately Beachcomber is not alone in this opinion, I have three in a row all of which did a runner before the 11 months contract expired and one who trashed the place and one didnt pay a bill in 4 months before doing a runner. All of these where "vette...

Thus construction work itself would be put out to tender in 2006 and start in 2007. does anyone know where to look at the plans online, just curious where it's going as the whole of the coast from Malaga to Estepona is built up? Will there be complusory purchase of land and property to facilitate t...

unfortunately its probably only going to confirm what we already knew

Mark Stucklin has been interviewed about problems with real estate agents, and I think theres some stuff about Financial "advisors" on CDS.

you need a PortPass - they are issued to residents and cost couple hundred euros.

I must move in different circles because virtually everyone I know in the UK would welcome the introduction of compulsory ID cards

same here - although I do object to being on a DNA database.

private security guards don't seem to have these restrictions, as we discovered when we lost a visiting teenage who decided to skip off down to Port at midnight. He was unable to make him self understood to the armed guards in either Spanish or English, we came to the conclusion that they where Russ...

buy a copy of Sur in english - they have pages of rentals you'll get all the details in there or the other smaller English papers.

Sherlock, where have you been for so long? Nice of you to come out to support another of your alter-egos. glad to see you noticed I was away, been staying with my family as they have a new born babby. If you bother to actually read my post rather than jumping in with an insult - I was agreeing with...

Amazing how he knows insults from months before he joined the board

Spanish lad, is nt that under the minimum wage? I glad you raised this question, quite a few of my friends kids come out on holiday think the place is fab and want to stay after the holiday. I give them the paper and tell them to phone around. First question - can you read and write spanish (its spa...

dear Kevin and P, lets not forget it was basically "reality" television so old ladies walking home safely won't make the edit.! I agree some of the mistakes by the police made the best viewing :lol: Although I was surprised that there where areas where the local police had to go into in tw...

yes Dave Courtney my hero great guy :lol: subject of a Costa Crime programme on his own I seem to remember. However have met him at the Gun Club and apart from him and friends being psychopathic(?) they were all great friendly guys. I don't think the violence was any worst then any UK deprived inner...
