Also, while down the local Supermarket ( Masymas ) i stocked up on some essensials for the flat IE BEER.
A SIX pack of San migiel Bottles (330 ml ) cost 2.15 Euros
Weather today was shocking, so shoking it was all over the news, rivers flowing down the roads which broke our road up at one place and we had to have it closed of by the Police.
Alicante was hit worse and was under a metre of water. Aint heard anything on the uk tv but its big news over here as they dont get rain that often and everyone comes out to check it out with there Camera phones

Heard about it on a few expat forums, the weather use to be predictable in Span now it is all over the shop. year after year very random. Though you can't beat pics like this at Christmas.
On the beer front most UK tourists stick to the stuff they know, if they tasted some local Spannish beer they would realise how shit the UK brands really are.
Looking forward to getting to Santa Pola, seems so much cheaper than the costa del sol. Got a week in January to sort house out etc can't wait.
