GOING HOME
GOING HOME
WE were thinking of going back to the U.K as we are missing the family to much but when we sat down and worked out the costs involved we found that it was going to be impossible. My heart goes out to all of the people back home who are going to be paying so much more for day to day living. I now think Spain is a far better option.
we have a house to rent in benijofar Kiara contact mel on [email protected]

ENERGY COSTS GOING UP AGAIN
Anouncement on the news today that Electricity and Gas prices will be going up from the 1st of August in the UK. The increases are 10% and 19% respectively and the talk is about how many pensioners will struggle to to keep up with payments and some having to make a choice with either heating or eating. What a sad state of affairs, what is the world coming to????

I agree with you 100% we were thinking of going back to the U.K until we heard the news yesterday about the cost of fuel and then later we heard that inflation was also going up, we may not be as happy as we would have liked to have been living in Spain as we are missing family but at least we can pay our bills and will be warm this winter.
We left the UK for precisely this reason, everything continues to go up and these energy companies are making extortionate profits and are being allowed to get away with it. Do they not realise we are in a deep recession and the average person cannot afford these constant increases. I am so glad to be here in Spain.

PADRON REGISTRATION & THE VOLANTE
Did you know...
The PADRON (Census Registration)needs to be renewed personally every 2 years, You must be a registered Resident and show proof. You can also ask for the right to vote at the same time (Pido mi derecho avoto en las elecciones municipales por favor). The Padron Office C/Union Musical Torrevejense in Torrevieja.
The VOLANTE is the sheet of paper (called here a Padron leaflet) which idicates that you are registered on the Padron and is required when registering your car etc. This needs to be renewed regularly and lasts up to 3 months.
This VOLANTE can be renewed at the office next to Age Concern C/Paganini, urb La Siesta.
What amazes me is that there are so many people who have gone back to the UK and so many houses sat here empty (no idea whether theyve been repossessed or are just left empty if maybe there is no mortgage on them) but when you want to rent there is nothing around....Surely it would be better to have someone living in the house than it sat empty? We have been looking for somewhere in the Benimar area and there is virtually nothing but when you drive round the area there are so many houses that looked unlived in. Where are the owners of these houses?
