At the back of the Carrabasi bars they are erecting what looks like a mobile phone antenna behind the sunshine bar. Are the days of balancing my mobile on the window ledge hoping for a signal now about to end?. We will see.

Hopefully it will be.
Vodaphone offered our community, Novamar, €8,000 a year if they could site one on our tennis courts/playground area, to cut a long story short the community vote said no.
Our administrator told me that Vodaphone would be going to other communities to try to get a mast located.

Regards all

I'm amazed and appalled that the going rate is only €8,000! That's chump change to a mobile phone provider. Such a shame the country can't stick together somehow and unilaterally tell them it's 80k which they could still easily afford to pay.

It looks to have the potential to be an eyesore.

It seems a strange way to construct something so big and heavy on temporary feet made of wood and paving tiles, it took them ages to level but is a work of art in itself. I don't understand why they didn't start from the feet first but I suppose they know what they are doing. I am intrigued to see how they construct the permanent plinths around all that packing.

The Oceans Bar may need to rethink their advert re the view, but at least the fried eggs in the bars may not need as long in the pan.

Told that the police have stopped them as they do not have the necessary permissions. Unusual for Spain!

Back in the UK all that metal would have disappeared by now.

Shame for the owners of Oceans - one of the nicer points of going there was the side views out of the windows - dont suppose they asked them permission though !
