Certainly not touchy but this constant "Shirley Bassey" business gets right on my t@t ends!

Oohhh Stan, I'll refrain myself to only saying it three times a week!!
Years ago we saw a Shirley Bassey tribute at Las Belgas at the Carabassi strip, it's sort of stuck since then.
Las Belgas eh, still miss that place, had some brilliant nights in there

We go to the shirley bassey most weeks for fish and chips at Aquarius and then a copious amount of cheap wine and beer next door, we also go fine dining in alicante but let us not kid ourselves the SB is just a bit cheap and tacky, and anyone who is there into the early hours knows what i mean, yes it does have a couple of eateries who try and raise the bar but on the whole its little benidorm. And going back to my original point that is why the fine dining in alicante is busy in winter and the shirley bassey isnt.

Your so right John Las Belgas nights out are fondly remembered,  in fact when they were there the shirley was probably at its best.

OMG, how on earth did a post about moving to GA to run a business and enquire about schools, supermarkets etc turn into a cockney rhyming thread and fine dining in Alicante.

Hi puddy-woo, no I don't, I'll ask Les.
I used it myself a few times, although I couldn't see any indication that a post had been liked

It is very hard to comment on this as we don't know the motivation or the finances of the original poster. As a frequent visitor to GA and hopefully one day a second home owner or long term renter, I do not see GA as a place to make money. I say that as a dull accountant. Agree with other posters places seem to shut permanently or for many months of the year. It always strikes me as more residential than tourist. However, if the poster can 'retire' at 35 they may well have other sources of income and want somethign just to tick over rather than make huge profits. I would personally be more worried about my children going to a Spanish school, unless they could speak Spanish. We each have our own outlooks and worries I guess.

Mine works, mind you I'm on Tapatalk, there's greyed out apps at the bottom of every post on my view.

We seem to have gone "off topic" a bit but just to clarify the "like" button, there has never been a "like" button on the forum and I cannot find any code that will let me install one within the SMF forum software. We do, of course, have a GAsbags Facebook page and there is a "like" on that and it seems that Tapatalk also had something similar at one time which has apparently disappeared. I have no control over the Facebook or Tapatalk software so I`m afraid we are stuck with what we´ve got.
