Simply Red in Tenerife

Some 5 months ago I spotted a ‘page’ on Facebook that I had not seen before, it was for the Gran Sur Centro Comercial in Fañabe.  For those of you that haven’t heard of this, it is a lovely shopping complex in the South of Tenerife, and has a variety of shops, restaurants as well [...]

50th Surprise

I can’t believe it is a week since Cathy celebrated her 50th Birthday party at Dreamers Bar in Los Cristianos!  We have only just recovered … Rob and the team at Dreamers really looked after us and the Buffet was superb. We had Simply Mo and Celtic-Con-Fusion singing all night and a few guest singers [...]

Adding More Links

Time for a little housekeeping and a review of the links on The Beach today, deleted a few and added some nice shiny new ones. The property market is, so they say, now starting to improve and if you are looking to buy or sell you might want to take a look at what Janet [...]

The Majestic

On the 19th February we set off to drive to Puerto de La Cruz, Alan and myself having been transformed into Alison and Steph!  The idea was that we were going to watch the High Heels Marathon that we had read so much about. Well our plan was flawed, you see we also decided to [...]

A lot has happened since then, some [...]

¡Feliz Año Nuevo!

Where has this year gone to?  It’s the 2nd January already! Hope you all had a great celebration on Thursday night/Friday morning, I know we did, the atmosphere was brilliant down near the beach for the Fireworks at midnight although we nearly missed it – we didn’t leave Cheers Bar in time and Cathy had [...]

Our Visitors are on the way!

Although they don’t arrive here until tomorrow, I know they are setting off today to make sure they don’t get held up on the M62 in bad weather (or at least that’s the thought!). It’s been a few years now since we have seen Alec and Jane, our neighbours from Leeds and we are looking [...]
