I have recently come back from a wonderful holiday in caleta de fuste for the third time but first for my son and just me and him. It was his first holiday so obviously I took many many pictures of us both during the holiday.
I purchased a lovely photo album from one of the gift shops but not thinking I didn't check how many photos it would hold which is only 40 and I have over double that in pictures printed for us to put in.

Is anyone in caleta or heading there soon that could help by purchasing another two for me and post? I will transfer you the money and postage costs so you don't lose out. I can also send you a picture of the photo album and where the shop is.

I would be grateful if anyone could help so I can use these lovely albums for our first holiday

Just so you are aware, my daughter bought a handbag on Caleta market, while on holiday. Later, she asked us to buy a similar one (gift for a friend) and post it to her. I squeezed the bag into an empty cereal box and packaged it up. It weighed only a few ounces. The bag cost 25 euros - and the postage to UK was nearer 30!! If, as I suspect, there is any weight in the photo album, this could be an expensive procedure.

Good advice, I have relatives in Spain and I have stopped sending birthday presents and Christmas presents because of the extortionate postage charges

There is a caleta de fuerte we love you page,  maybe post on there and see if anyone visiting lives local to you. And also caleta fuerteventura page.

Also might be an idea if you gave some indication of your whereabouts in the UK, I am not suggesting you post your address, but a Post Code, would even only the first part and you never know.

Maybe the original poster meant for someone to bring it back to UK, then post it at local rate?

This sounds to me exactly what the original poster meant.

I could bring some back if they're not too big, I just have hand luggage. Let me know which ones.
