Guardamar Beach

It was packed at Guardamar today you could not move. Had all the family their with us from Scotland and they loved it. We had a lovely lunch at one of the bars on the promenade and really chilled out. We all enjoyed our day and shall be trying La Marina beach tomorrow as friends have said that this is also a lovely beach and less crowded.
If there is anyone who has any other suggestions on any nice beaches that are not too far please let me know. Thanks

Horse Riding

Dose anyone have any information about the Horse riding stables down towards Torrevieja it is on the right hand side of the N332 close to La Mata. It can be seen just a bit further over from the grape vines it has a very long white wall. Used to know its name.
Am also looking for any other Equestrian Centre that does riding on any of the Beaches.

WEBSITE

It seems to me that the Forum is becoming more like an advertising page, as is the My Spanish Life section. Surely advertisers should be using the Services Section to advertise? The way the My Spanish Life section seems to be going, you may as well do away with the rest of the website and just have that area!

Quesada

Thank you for pointing this out, all adverts have been removed from My Spanish Life any new ones will be deleted

Commented Team ASL "A Spanish Life" in La Marina 2011-07-06 10:11:41 UTC

I agree too and think that the administrators should remove advertising from the forum - I can see that businesses would want to advertise one off events / sales but when you constantly see the same businesses advertising day in/day out it does get annoying. Businesses should use the other advertising options on the site.

Commented Richard in Quesada 2011-07-06 20:00:57 UTC

I have to agree that the new forum appears to be used virtually as an advertising site for local bars and businesses. The old site was used by people wanting advice and help on all kinds of different aspects relating to living in Spain, which is what I thought the whole purpose of the forum was. Maz

Commented Maz in Quesada 2011-07-07 08:26:52 UTC

How the site is used is down to the members, have a look at the La Marina forum, they have advertising as well but the people there use the site to find out what is going on and ask questions so this makes the adverts far less prominent. So why not use the site more and the adverts will become less important.
I also note that a lot of the adverts here are about what is going on as a posed to trying to sell a product, I for one find this useful to see what events are happening now, at this busy time of year.

Commented Daves Homes in Rojales 2011-07-07 08:47:40 UTC

But surely the Events page should be used for businesses to advertise the events that they have coming up? The forum should be used like Maz says for asking questions and giving advice on all aspects of living in Spain and the local area.

Commented Richard in Quesada 2011-07-07 10:00:22 UTC

I find the layout very difficult to follow and think that it would be better if different areas were segregated. I feel that the site is being spoilt by there being too many advertisers mixed in with points of interest

Commented spanglish in Quesada 2011-07-07 16:14:14 UTC

So by the sound of it you do not like much about this site? I do not see what the problem is with the layout, someone post and others comment, its the same as facebook and that works for Millions of people.

Commented Daves Homes in Rojales 2011-07-07 17:58:41 UTC

I agree with you Dave!!! What is the difference as you say facebook, as well as twitter works very well for millions around the world. What is the problem with some advertising? Ok if its the same all the time then we can control this but a mix of both is a good blend.

Commented Rio in Almoradi 2011-07-07 19:03:30 UTC

Hi Guys
I have to say I agree with kiera. You must consider that the purpose of my spanish life, as explained to us at the outset was to discuss my spanish life. I did check with the providers that the requirements were that of blog type story telling,and "how to" features.

I also checked that the purpose was not for advertising, buying ,selling, after all we have already been provided with plenty of scope to do that.

By not following the intended original structure the sites have been saturated with repeat advertising, its messy and un appealing.

For the record I love the sites, I enjoy the chat, info and exchange of information however it is a fact that due to improper use by many contributers, the my spanish life section has so far failed to deliver its original format and in that case it is not fit for its intended purpose.

I had spoken with the service provider several days ago who agrees with this,so much so that many of the adverts have been removed and will continue to be so, therefore, Kiera is right in accordance with the original intention of my spanish life, the concept has failed so far.

Commented we love it here in Quesada 2011-07-08 22:07:37 UTC

Surrey it depends on what you are advertising, for all i know ( we love it here ) works for Avon or Boots and is advertising their products on here. We advertise our classes on here which is a business but also we are giving people a chance to integrate with each other. So is that a bad thing?

Please see my post above lol

Commented Chalk Face Academia in Almoradi 2011-07-09 11:42:43 UTC

Oh come on chalk face academy you must be joking ! First of all with regard to avon products, as id explained in answer to a request for sugestions and cures, I suffer teribly from a mosquito allergy that at times makes my life a misery, I was only trying to offer the benefit of my experience having tried so many products gadgets and gizmos, I dont work for avon but I do advertise my business on this site, the thing is I advertise it in the correct place and I just wish other people would take the time and trouble to use and navigate the site correctly, how hard can it be ?

AUDITIONS FOR AN INSPECTOR CALLS

Dramatic Licence will be staging this play at the end of October. Auditions will be at the GAP warehouse (through Algorfa on the next main roundabout at Benijuzar) on Tuesday and Thursday next week at 7.30.
Lots of 'extras' needed as this play will start long before the audience is allowed into the theatre!
Call Suzanne on 680 961 025 for more information.

Quesada

what parts are needed for the play ?

Commented Sandra Bernice Knott in Quesada 2011-07-08 17:44:24 UTC

A middle-aged, comfortably wealthy couple, their son Eric, daughter Sheila (20s), and her fiancé, Gerald are finishing dinner when an Inspector comes to call. Set in 1912 it is a strong play with a theme of responsibility and conscience - and is also a mystery. The play has been running continuously either in London or on tour for many years and is part of the GCSE English literature syllabus.
