Tennis, Long Lunch, Late Drink, Broken Camera!
A Rose Between Two Thorns - Salvador, Sands and Paco Played tennis in the morning yesterday with Lee (well I tried to play and he ran around still drunk from the night before), so it wasn’t exactly a success. It was fun though and good to be back out doing something again. Lee was a little late on parade so I took the opportunity to test my thigh(s) out kicking a football, and happily they seemed ok. Certainly wasn’t kicking very hard, but no twinges and no reaction today. After tennis we

Missing Nano
Well the cat is out of the bag, and for all the wrong reasons! I just signed for a couple of things from Apple, but like an idiot didn’t even check the box, documentation, or even who was delivering it!!

I think I know but out of fairness I won’t ‘name and shame’ until I am 100%. ‘Name and shame’? Yep, because when I went to open the box I noti

The Hunt For Overseas Property Investment
by Russell J. Joyce They say that if anything is likely to reap a return on your investment then ‘bricks and mortar really oughta!’ Many people have purchased property as a long term, or even short term investment - some even choosing property investment as a source of retirement funding. Although over the short term prices vary, and as the mood and government changes prices will dip or soar, over a period of years all property is destined to virtually guarantee a return on the initial investme

Off Plan Property Spain
By: Gary Marshall If you have been thinking of buying a villa or an apartment in Spain and been reading about it, you might have come across the term “Off Plan Property” or “Off Plan Real Estate” and wondered exactly what was meant by it. The easy answer to this is that it applies to buying property before it has been built, sometimes even before a spade has been put in the ground.

A regular question from friends and family is “How do you cope with the weather in the summer?” which is a pretty good question. If only there was an equally as good answer!!!!

Spanish economy close to contraction, deficit soars MADRID: Spain could soon face its first economic contraction in 15 years, the country’s economy minister said yesterday as the latest statistics showed falling house prices, cuts in car production and a soaring budget deficit.
Spain’s government has long ruled out negative growth. But Economy Minister Pedro Solbes told Spain’s Antena 3 television channel: “In the next two quarters growth will be around 0.1% to negative 0.1%, and of course, this doesn’t change things very much.”
He was speaking just before official data showed Spain’s budget deficit surged to 14.6bn euros in the eight months to August as the government doled out tax cuts and cheap credit to slow the economy’s slide into recession.

Labour Minister Celestino Corbacho yesterday stuck by an estimate unemployment would peak at an average 12.5% in 2009 before improving.
At 11% in July, Spanish unemployment was the highest in the eurozone and sent consumer confidence to a record low.
