Dear Owners, January turned out to be a busy month although maintenance issues were relatively few but did include the replacement of the pump in the children’s pool 1. The papers regarding our claim against the previous administrator were submitted to Court and now we wait. With regard to the situation with the gardening company the Governing Board met on 14th January and unanimously agreed that Almajardin should again be given notice that their contract would now terminate on 31st January. Our new company will start on 1st February [...]

Dear Owners, I’m delighted to report that Tomi finally left hospital on 24 October. The collection for him raised 130 euros so I went to El Corte Ingles and selected lots of food and drink items which were then made into a gift basket and delivered to him at home on Saturday 27th October. He was delighted! I have a 20 euros surplus which I will give him when I see him. We still have to wait for his doctor to release him as fit to work before he will [...]
