Thought Of The Day
Smile, say cheese let me take your photo. How does that make you feel? For most of us we are not rushing to check our hair and make up, we are thinking about the quickest way to get out of here!
A photo or bringing attention to yourself by speaking up at a meeting or in public is something that sends fear shooting through us. Why do we let that happen, are we not capable, competent adults? Yes, we are but we are also human and we let fear limit us, but fear only exists if we let it. If you were guaranteed a great photo of yourself every single time, would you still run away from a camera or would it be your new best friend?

WINTER TIME
I'm thinking ahead to winter already, sad I know but need some help.
Anyone know where I can get a 'gel burning fireplace' those that you place the paintpot shaped cans in that are full of gel and need no flue\chimney. Anywhere local or even a website\spanish supplier.
Thnx

Hi Alastair,
I bought 2 of the containers for outside with the mozzie gel & I have the details of the company for those & the wall mounted bio fuel fires, I presume they are what you mean? No chimney needed & no gas or elec connection? The company is called "The Naked Flame Spain" Tel 690 231 425 & 660 860 492

Hi Alastair,
I've just been speaking to them about more gel, they're in UK at the moment so if you wanted one they could bring one over in their van & save you on the P & P

Their website is www.thenakedflame.co.uk -I don't know if they display the prices on there.
LOCKSMITH
Unfortunately the lock on our gates broke today.
I identified under SERVICES Hacket Locksmiths and called these people.
I was told that it could take 1-1½ hours before they could come. I received subsequently a call advising me that they would arrive at my home in 20 minutes.
The gates were locked and the keys did not function. The engineer "picked" the lock, identified that the lock was past its sell by date, fitted a completely new lock and assured himself that the gate handles and the lock functioned perfectly.
After 1 hour 15 minutes the job was done, cost 85 Euros! I was expecting to pay much more!
I can highly recommend these people, as I said you will find them under SERVICES.

Perhaps you would like to make these comments on their section in the services section. It will then be there for others who need this service in the future.
Family Language Exchange
Family Language Exchange
A lovely Spanish family husband, wife, 2 girls aged 10 and 13 want to practice their English in a more social way other than in a classroom. Are looking for a similar family.
They are willing to exchange Spanish support for anyone learning who wants to improve their conversation level.

Never heard of these type of fires, sorry, but I would recommend if you're here all winter, investing in a 'good quality' log burner, you cannot beat them for warming these houses. Maz
