The weather was still very warm through the month ,we had a little rain at the start but was fine afterwards. Hopefully we are in for a good winter.
As many apartments have been sold over the past year many are being reformed ,some totally gutted and totally retiled etc, this obviously incurs a fair bit of noise , we do ask you to be tolerant of this as the work has to be done sometimes. We do ask the owners having the work carried out to instruct their builders to keep noise to a minimum and follow the complex rules on work times , 9am till 6pm Monday to Saturday, no noise on Sunday or any Bank Holiday in Spain. Also please inform your builder that we do not allow building waste ,old kitchens and furniture to be disposed of at our basura as the council no longer take these items and the community land up paying for the removal. If we find owners or builders disregarding these rules we will make a charge against the offending apartment .
Steve and myself have put up the Christmas decorations and planted the poinsettias around the complex, we still have the Xmas tree to put up but we have wind and rain forecast this week and we wanted to wait until the weather settles .
Jose is still off work after a medical procedure and we are hoping he will return towards the end of the month. We wish him a speedy recovery.
Hollywood mirage , after making many official complaints about noise from the PA system and also the air conditioning unit which makes a droning noise day and night,we are setting up a meeting with the management to explain our grievances, hopefully this will get some results at last, I will keep you informed.
I received a complaint about patio furniture and clothes dryers blocking walkways at the rear of the properties, please be courteous to other owners and make sure this doesn’t happen again .
All that remains is to wish you all a good Christmas and a happy new year..
We look forward to seeing you all soon. Paul

OCTOBER was mainly hot but we did get the promised rains early in the month followed by yet more calimas and heat.
Jose underwent a routine operation with means he is off work for approximately 2 months,you may still see him walking around the complex but he is not working. We wish him well and hopefully he will be back soon after a full recovery.
Garage door we are having problems again with the garage door and it is very unhelpful having people and workmen on the site blocking the sensor on the door to keep it open,we ask if you have workmen in your apartment tell them not to block the main door and do not prop open the two fire doors leading to the garage, this is a security risk and a fire risk if we had an incident in the garage whilst the doors were proper open the authorities would immediately come to the community,
We are busy now preparing the complex for Christmas and hope to see a lot of owners here for the Xmas period after a long time due to the covid restrictions.
That is all for now and I will make sure I get the blog done earlier next month,
Take care Paul

September was very hot but we had storms towards the end of the month with torrential rain and winds. Although there were a lot of problems like the airports closing, flash floods and rock falls it wasn’t as bad as the weather men had predicted. We were luckier in the south than the North of the island and it did cause a few problems around the complex with electrics and excess water. This also causes a lot of work for the cleaning staff and it takes them some time to get back to their normal cleaning rota. This combined with the fact that the calimas are coming more regularly means we must thank the cleaners for all their hard work.
We all saw the very sad but also quite beautiful scenes around the UK after the Queens sad death and funeral, I think it probably touched everybodys hearts. We now wish King Charles all the very best and I am sure he will do a good job.
The next meeting of the committee will be held on Thursday 3rd November at 10.30 am.
Now the summer holidays are over we start looking forward to the Christmas period and we will be looking out the decorations etc and getting ready to put them up next month, I honestly don’t know where this year has gone it seems to have flown by.
We are expecting a bit more rain in the next week or so and then we will recommence work on some of the walls that need repairing around the complex.
Josè will be painting the trastero doors for the electric cupboards and water rooms. We have had a few comments about the state of some trastero doors, if you own a trastero please make sure they are painted white and in an acceptable condition and some of the white security railings also need painting.
We have put signs on some carparking spaces asking for all furniture and rubbish to be removed as they are a fire risk and it is not permitted to use your parking space as a general store. Please make sure you are parked behind your white line and not over it. Some people have parked a motorbike behind their car which in some cases means they protrude over the white line, which in turn causes hazards for other garage users.
That’s all for now please take care Paul
