Is it possible or reasonable to request 3 separate bankers drafts post property sale to present to 3 different currency exchange companies.

Where do my wife and I stand being over 65s, and residents, in relation to selling our main and only residence here in Andalucia, with regards to any CGT on the property.

If we sell our house here in Andalucia to an English buyer can we have the proceeds sent directly to our English bank account without having the proceeds deposited with the buyers legal team? We are resident in Spain and have been for nine years.

The three crowns we planted last year have survived, two particularly strong the other slightly runt of the litter, giving several good sized sticks although we did not pick any. The plants were kept in partial shade and watered though not religiously. We have now covered the plants in manure and wi...

Nice one.

Hi Olive, we thought the heat may be a problem hence planting in partial shade, will post on rhubarbs progress

Some time ago I posted an intention to bring some rhubarb crowns from England and see how they fared in the Alcala region. Lasy November I did just that and planted the crowns close to a garden wall in partial shade from an olive tree, the results are good, all three are sprouting, now about 150cm t...

Thanks, will try all advice

Hi Enrique, yes had a good holiday thanks. Watching Scotland/Wales today, programme kept getting interrupted with ads, top right hand corner of screen was a small Block icon. Being a fool I activated the icon which brought up a screen showing various Filmon options, one of which was marked, so I con...

Hi all, have inadvertently blocked Filmon trying to block out the ads, now no ads and no Filmon. Can anyone tell me how to remove the block?
Thanks

Thanks for all replies, we do want to sell them, they are extremely ornate and we think very rare. There is no rush to dispose of them and we shall try various avenues to sell.

Does anyone have any contacts for Architectural Salvage. I have 8 cast iron window grills, rejas de ventanas and an ornamental cast iron staircase, veranda de escalara all from the same property and well over 100 years old which we want to dispose of.

Thanks Cid, a very useful link

Hi Cid, do you have a figure for annual income that would not require you to submit a tax return or would be below the declaration threshold?

Thanks oliveview01, all of our cover from Mapfre has been what we considered FC, although we have not heard that term used here. As for the age of the car, this has not been an issue with either Mapfre, LD or one other company we have contacted. We are not looking for the cheapest quote but wonderin...

Thanks all but if you do get NCB how do you know the discount. My insurance with Mapfre has been almost the same from the first year so it appears to me that no discount is being applied. I shall talk with the Mapfre office in Alcala to try to get a clearer explanation.By the way LD were more expens...

We are insured with Mapfre and we have been since we moved here almost three years ago. Is it ususal here in Spain for drivers to accrue NCB as we seem not to have any detailed on our renewals? Our 40 years of no claims in UK apparently do not count. We ask this here before we speak with our Mapfre ...

Thanks all great info

Not yet but will do

Thanks all, no sign of him, been out each day, put up posters, it is now two weeks
