Thanks

Feel sorry for your other half, sounds like he has a lot to put up with, a lot of stress.
I'd love to meet the poor guy and give him a medal or something.

IsThisForumStillGoingWow

It's not a repeat of that old one from about 7 years ago is it?
Only two things are infinite,the universe and human stupidity,and im not sure about the former .....

Well it's entitled 'A place in the sun 2014'

Today's house hunters Emma Halley and Daniel Greenfield want to find out what their £73,000 budget can buy them on the Canary Island of Fuerteventura. Jasmine Harman shows them a selection of what's on the market.
Regards, Neil
Looking forward to the day I tick the "One way only" box when booking flights to Fuerte. [:)]

Apparently it's about bulgarians getting free social housing in all those empty ones up the mountain....

I think I've seen three different programs of this type set on Fuerteventura. It was from the second one I learned just how contrived the program was. The subjects rejected a new apartment with a view over the beaches south of El Cotillo on the grounds that they'd prefer to be in Corralejo, to be closer to surfing beaches.....

Voldermort

They had one on a complex near Duquesa in Andalucia recently, despite the locals being well aware of all sorts of problems with the developer and local authority etc..It was cheap because no one would touch it with a bargepole..Still its telly innit and looks good...job done  ???

dee-dee

I think some just go for the free holiday....they have no intention of buying a property  ::)

si2008

also there is one on more 4 at 17.45..this could be a repeat 
Laura Hamilton looks for a holiday home for Fuerteventura-fanatics Nicholas and Pauline Patch. They've been holidaying here for a decade and have decided that now's the time to buy a second home for £125,000.
if anybody is interested

Champlain Girl

Get yourself a VCR so you can record it and watch later. Youi can get one for almost nothing nowadays.

"A Place In The Sun" told LIES to 1000's of people. They show places in the height of SUMMER when everywhere is busy, sunny and warm.

Granada in the winter  :o Don't make me laugh. Iv'e been there, its high up, it snows in winter. Forget it.

From October to February, from Valencia down to about Torrevieja, it rains and rains and it's freezing at night. Not to mention the hoards of Romanians an Russians.

A VCR? Oh wow I'd forgotten about them!
So this is what it feels like to be back in 1997 :D

I will record it on my sky box (high tech Mancunian) :P

I find that most repeat series are shown a complete random. What's on screen may or may not be what's in Radio Times, other mags, daily papers or even the i button.
We watch Homes Under The Hammer and have the same issues.
Easiest answer is to set PVR for series repeat on C4 E4 More4 +4 47 What4 and then scan them to see what you got.

The Sky guide says the programme's on daily:
Tuesday- Granada
Wednesday - Fuerteventura
Thursday - Costa Blanca
Friday - Costa Blanca
next Monday - Algarve

I've been watching the series. Some of them are old stuff but some were made last Autumn - look for the credits at the end of the programmes.
It's the same old thing; the idea seems to be to get the whole British population whipped up into a frenzy of mass emigration, mainly to Spain.
They've stopped telling people how much they can make from renting out their acquisitions unless it's definitely on a touristic development with proper management handling everything, including the bookings. They seem to be pushing the minimum long-term let more, 3 months I think.
They even filmed one in the rain, too.
You can log-on to their up to date site and get the low-down on everything to do with buying and living in Spain. It's a 15 page down-loadable document.

I made the mistake of buying a blackberry before christmas and apparently not even 20/20 vision can save you from these things, handy while I'm out and about though.

Anyway what you doing on here this time of the day? Get back in the kitchen and go wash some dishes or something.
