The weather through February was also unsettled but still quite warm, it became overcast in the afternoons but was still quite pleasant and a lot better than the reports we saw from around Europe and the UK . now however into March it is very hot.

The TV problems persist and we have now lost BBC 1 AND 2 altogether , this is out of our control as the sd channels have been turned off in the UK, we are told other channels will follow.  If you want to talk to us when you come out to your apartment please get in touch and we will discuss the options with you .

We have now denounced Hollywood Mirage for the second time concerning the noise created by their air con units, they run all the time and are very disturbing for owners on that end of our building, we have also sent a Burofax from our lawyer to them stating the problem and we expect a reply within 6 weeks otherwise we will ask for permission from the owners at the AGM in May to start court proceedings against them.

AGM the AGM Will take place on 19th May but bear with us because we have not yet finalised the venue for it , we will let all owners know the venue when the notices go out in April, it would be nice to hold it close to the complex.

There are a lot  of apartments changing hands at the moment and it is sad to see some owners who have owned since the beginning selling up , we will miss you but we also welcome new owners some of whom we have met and a lot we haven’t,  We welcome you  to come down to the office next to the post boxes on April 12th around 10.30am for us to meet new owners .

As I said the weather seems to have at last settled and it is hot and sunny all day now hopefully we will see you all soon at the complex .

On 17 March Los Cristianos carnival starts and it is a couple of weeks of fun for all, it is always a very good parade and well worth seeing . Steve will be putting the agenda for carnival on this post just below soon. I hope you can attend.

Regards Paul.
